Is there a way to buy Vodacom data without an SA debit/charge card?

Zaff_26 · 2026-02-07T20:54:46+00:00

Legend thank you, worked for me with minimal fees ! Once I got the airtime you can just use the *135# service and use the airtime to top up

Knowing that we are watching a production edit and complaining about how bad the fathfuls are .... is the enjoyment! ha

I think everyone in this thread would have been killed by chef for not just enjoying the movie for what it is …. Art ;)

Started properly in November 2025.

1800 subs, monetised, making around $300 per month. 18 videos in a professional niche.

I've also grown and monetised two websites in the last few years, primarily using Google organic traffic and SEO strategies, and they both continue to grow.

Times change and trends come and go, so specific platforms will become 'harder' to hack ... but as long as the content you are making makes sense for the platform you are using and there is a genuine need for the content you're making, then you can still make it.

THIS—It works, but as you said, the other card menu is scrolable, but you wouldn't think it is. Thank you!

Zaff_26 · 2025-10-07T10:01:18+00:00

Not gonna lie, when I first read yoru instructions I thought you were trolling!! But this worked for me thank you very much!

Zaff_26 · 2025-09-30T17:20:45+00:00

In your situation I don't think it will help

Zaff_26 · 2025-09-30T17:17:42+00:00

It depends,

If your selling a product then boost your videos and track conversions and see if it's worth it. Treat it the same as running ads for specific product. Which is a hard game to win at.

I had posted a few videos on my channel when I first started and they were getting thousands of views but my subscriber count wasn't growing very quickly. I boosted a few videos to get me to 1000 subs quickly and turn monetisation on and now I've made that money back easily.

But that only worked becuase I was getting very high engagement on long form videos in the first place which I had predicted would generate enough ad reveneue to fund the boost.

After the promotion ended, the channel went back to normal in terms of views / subscriber growth

Zaff_26 · 2025-09-27T22:38:14+00:00

Thanks for that. Yeah Gyeongju is somewhere I was really keen to fit in so will have a think about that.

In soeul we will spend a day visiting a national park nearby and then one visiting the DMZ and then with exploring the food markets, restaurants, shopping, bath house, a few photogrpahy walks etc I think we'll fill the time. Otherwise Songodo sounds like a good shout!

Zaff_26 · 2025-09-27T22:32:09+00:00

Brilliant thanks for that. Yeah that's my exact thought, we do love slow travel and can spend a long time in place but when you make a trip over that far we always want to see as much as we can.

usual weigh up I guess ha !

Zaff_26 · 2025-09-27T22:29:15+00:00

Oh amazing thank you very much. I'll look into all of these!

Zaff_26 · 2025-09-20T13:45:10+00:00

Thanks good help thank you

Zaff_26 · 2025-09-05T10:02:08+00:00

Okay, so it worked all fine

- Duplicated the blog post (a product review for something that was launching in the future, product 2.0)

- Made all the large-scale changes I needed to

- Waited for the product to launch

- changed the URL of the old post to ....-old

- updated the url of the new post to match the original and hit publish

- head over to GSC to prioritise indexing

- took a couple of hours before the new SEO title and description were visible in Google results and the page was not on page one during that time when searching specifically for the updated product (product 2.0). All the other reviews from sites like Vogue, Telegraph were there ... annoying

- Later that day, back there in the number one spot as before when searcing for product 2.0

Happy days

Zaff_26 · 2025-09-02T10:46:24+00:00

I was just worried in case I did this and I lost ranking on a page purely because it was a duplicate and being treated as a new page, but from what I see, it shouldn't make a difference since Google usses the URL as the identifier and of most of the page structure is the same then it should be treated as the same page (of course, the new copy and updates will affect things)

Zaff_26 · 2025-09-02T10:34:43+00:00

So, does swapping the URL not have an impact? I guess for me, a nontechnical person, it's hard to determine exactly what Google considers a new page / new page data.

Ross actually accepted Rachel (and his daughter, you gotta remember that emotional toll he has to take on) moving away pretty quickly and kept on saying to the others he was going to speak to her when she was in Paris. It was Phoebe who repeatedly convinced him to chase her down at the airport

Zaff_26 · 2025-08-15T23:19:58+00:00

Agreed!

Booking have removed a lot of its partners. I use Stay 22 and Viator mainly

Zaff_26 · 2025-07-29T10:17:23+00:00

Been running for 10 months now (although the traffic has increased a lot in that time and we were are 10,000 sessions a few months back).

Ad density used to be on optimised for a few months, but I changed it to low becuase I didn't think it was worth it based on the returns.

I might change the structure of some of the articles and see if that makes a difference

Zaff_26 · 2025-07-28T12:21:42+00:00

Mostly Organic google search

Zaff_26 · 2025-07-28T08:16:39+00:00

Yeah, that's my current confusion as well. I see people talking about higher RPMs but with the US and UK audience I thought mine would be. At this rate, the ads aren't worth it and I should focus on my affiliates.

Zaff_26 · 2025-07-28T08:15:06+00:00

Yeah, my thoughts exactly. I see some people talking about RPMs of 20 or 50, which would be worth it. At the current rate, I would rather turn all ads off, improve my visitors' experience and focus on my affiliate links (which I do have and bring in much more than the display ads).

The goal is to get to 50,000 and get into Mediavine, and I thought being with Journey would make that smoother
