In the music world, people want to be more like their idols. They want to play the guitar like Slash, rap like Eminem, or sing like Ariana Grande. Not only that, they want to use the same gear as these people.\n\nIn fact, Giulio, the co-founder, says this is how <em>Equipboard<\/em>&nbsp;started.&nbsp;<blockquote class=\"small\"><div class=\"quote-content\"> As musicians ourselves, we understand how musicians search for a certain sound and shop for gear.

On <em>Equipboard<\/em>, anyone can add content related to their favorite artists\u2019 gear. Then, with the help of a few community moderators, the founders fact-check sources and ensure the suggestions are accurate.\n\nThis allows them to scale content production at a relatively low cost.\n\nIt also helps them&nbsp;to:&nbsp;<ol>\n \t<li><strong>Get traffic.<\/strong>&nbsp;Most of these musicians are famous, so there\u2019s plenty of search volume for relevant terms (e.g. \u201cjimmy page&nbsp;gear\u201d.)<\/li>\n \t<li><strong>Get affiliate link clicks.<\/strong>&nbsp;Since fans are already interested in the gear of their favorite musicians, it is likely they will click on their affiliate links.<\/li>\n \t<li><strong>Get <a href=\"https:\/\/ahrefs.com\/blog\/what-are-backlinks\/\">backlinks<\/a><\/strong>.

But they also cover plenty of other topics that don\u2019t link to any products.\n\nThey\u2019re also committed to linking to the best products, even if they can\u2019t make money from their recommendations.\n\nFor example, their post on \u201cDIY teardrop camper kits\u201d generates an estimated 1,800 search visits per month, but has only one link to an affiliate product.&nbsp;<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1600\" height=\"332\" class=\"wp-image-32465\" src=\"https:\/\/ahrefs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/territory-supply-organic-traffic-2.png\" alt=\"territory supply organic traffic 2\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ahrefs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/territory-supply-organic-traffic-2.png 1600w, https:\/\/ahrefs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/territory-supply-organic-traffic-2-680x141.png 680w, https:\/\/ahrefs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/territory-supply-organic-traffic-2-768x159.png 768w, https:\/\/ahrefs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/territory-supply-organic-traffic-2-1536x319.png 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1600px) 100vw, 1600px\">\n\nDustin Christiensen, the founder, reaffirms my thoughts.&nbsp;<blockquote class=\"small\"><div class=\"quote-content\">\n\nI think one reason we\u2019ve had success with Territory Supply is that we\u2019ve tried to provide more value than your average affiliate site. For example, a lot of our product recommendations come from small brands or retailers that don\u2019t have an affiliate program whatsoever. But, those brands make some of the best products, so we\u2019ve included them in our content because that\u2019s what\u2019s most valuable to our readers. We don\u2019t just find five Amazon products and call it a day\u2014we\u2019ll put a lot of research into each product category to find unique products and brands that no one else is discussing since most sites can\u2019t make money off of them.\n\nSecondly, we\u2019ve invested heavily in our brand and appearance. Instead of putting up a cheap WordPress theme, I spent thousands of dollars on a custom designed website with some unique outdoor aesthetics that work well for the outdoor community. We tried to build something that didn\u2019t look like a cheap, thin affiliate site and instead, wanted something that looked trustworthy, valuable and impactful.\n\nLast, we also do a lot of content that isn\u2019t related to products or affiliate marketing at all - like hiking and camping guides that include the best locations to explore in different areas. These articles are research-intensive and we try to find writers who live in or explore the areas we write about so that they have real, accurate value for our readers. We do so much more than just product-based content that I think it helps find an audience that a lot of affiliate sites might miss out&nbsp;on.&nbsp;<\/div><div class=\"quote-info clearfix\"><div class=\"quote-photo\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Dustin Christiensen\" src=\"https:\/\/ahrefs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/dustin-christiansen.png\"><\/div><div class=\"extra-box\"><span class=\"quote-author\">Dustin Christiensen,<\/span> <span class=\"quote-author-job\">Founder<\/span><\/div><\/div><\/blockquote>\n<h3>How to replicate their success<\/h3>\nNot every <em>Territory Supply<\/em>&nbsp;reader is ready to buy.
