About This Blog – Digital Graft
Helping ordinary people build a real online business—with straight talk, smart tools, and no BS.
Welcome to Digital Graft, a blog for people who’ve had enough of being talked down to, ripped off, or made to feel like they’re too late for this “online business” malarkey.
Maybe you’ve worked on building sites. Maybe you’ve worked in a warehouse. Maybe you’ve just worked hard, full stop—and now you’re wondering if there’s another way to earn without flogging yourself to death or signing up to some course run by a bloke in Bali.
This blog is for you.
🧰 What You’ll Find Here
Digital Graft is a place where we keep it simple. No fluff. No funnels that need a whiteboard and a business degree. Just honest, working-class guidance for people who want to get started online and actually make something happen.
You’ll get:
- Beginner-friendly guides on starting an online business
- Down-to-earth advice on using AI tools (like ChatGPT)
- Tips for creating and selling digital products
- Simple steps for using affiliate marketing, blogging, and email
- Real stories—wins, fails, near-misses, and pub-worthy lessons
All of it wrapped in a voice that sounds more like your mate at the bar than a marketing podcast.
👷♂️ Who It’s For
This blog isn’t aimed at tech bros or Silicon Valley evangelists.
It’s built for:
- People over 40 who feel like digital has left them behind
- Workers looking to escape the grind or supplement their income
- Beginners who are sceptical, cautious—but ready to give it a go
- Anyone sick of hustle culture, toxic positivity, or 9-step morning routines involving green sludge
🤖 What Makes It Different?
Most sites in this space either blind you with jargon or try to sell you a dream wrapped in a sales funnel. Here, you’ll get:
- Practical stuff you can use today
- Tools explained in plain English
- Honest recommendations (some with affiliate links, but only if they’re good)
- A few laughs, a few stories, and a lot of truth
You bring the graft.
I’ll bring the guide.
