📊 THE MONEY VS AUTHORITY BREAKDOWN:
BUILD TRUST & AUTHORITY:
✅ How-To Posts (70% of your content)

These bring in traffic from Google
Build your reputation as an expert
Create loyal readers who trust you

MAKE MONEY:
💰 Product Reviews (15% of your content)
💰 Best Of Lists (10% of your content)
💰 Product Comparisons (5% of your content)
The Strategy: Use How-To posts to attract and help your audience, then monetize with review and comparison posts when they're ready to buy.

💡 WHY YOU NEED ALL 4 TYPES:
Only write How-To posts? Great traffic, no income
Only write reviews? No trust, readers leave immediately
Balanced mix? Authority + income + sustainable growth
The 70/15/10/5 split gives you:

Consistent traffic from helpful content
Trust from solving real problems
Revenue from strategic product recommendations
A business that grows AND earns

☐ Identify which posts are How-To vs Review vs List vs Comparison
☐ Ensure you have a balanced mix (70/15/10/5 ratio)
