I'm an affiliate marketer who builds niche websites. I write SEO-optimized content, build sites from scratch, and I've been diving deep into AI tools to speed up every part of that process — keyword research, content drafting, on-page optimization, and internal linking.
I'm not a 20-year veteran with a team of writers. I'm a solo operator who's figuring out which AI tools actually save time and which ones are marketing hype. AIStacked is where I document what I find.
When I started using AI tools for affiliate marketing, I ran into the same problem everywhere: every "best AI tools" article was either a sponsored listicle with no real testing, or a generic blog post written by someone who clearly never opened the tools they were recommending.
I wanted reviews from someone who actually signed up, actually used the tool on a real article, and could tell me whether it was worth the monthly subscription. I couldn't find that. So I'm building it.
Every tool on this site is tested the same way. I sign up for a real account (free trial or paid). I run an actual article through it — keyword research, content draft, optimization, the full workflow. I compare the output against what I'd produce manually or with a competing tool. I check the price against the value it delivers. Then I write the review.
If a tool is bad, I say so. If a tool is good but overpriced, I say that too. If a free tool beats a paid one, that goes in the review. I don't rank tools by commission size — I rank them by whether they're worth your time and money.
Here's what makes this site different from the hundreds of other AI tool review sites: I'm not pretending to be an authority I haven't earned yet. I'm building niche affiliate sites right now, using these tools right now, and reporting on what happens — good and bad.
That means you'll see real screenshots, real before-and-after rankings, and honest updates when a tool changes its pricing or drops a feature. It also means some of my reviews will say "I've been using this for 2 weeks" instead of "I've tested 50 tools." Truth ranks better than fabricated expertise — and it's more useful to you.
AIStacked is an affiliate site. When you click a link to one of the tools I review and sign up, I may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. This is how the site stays free to read.
I also sell a paid playbook — a detailed guide to the exact AI tool stack I use to run a niche affiliate site, with workflows and copy-paste prompts. It's optional. Every article on this site is free to read whether you buy it or not.
I only recommend tools I've actually tested and would use myself. If a tool pays a high commission but isn't good, it doesn't make the list. Full details on my disclosure page.
This site is built with plain HTML and CSS. No JavaScript framework, no tracking scripts bloating the page, no render-blocking dependencies. It loads in under a second on any connection.
That's a deliberate choice. Speed is a Core Web Vitals ranking factor, and it's also just respectful of your time. If a site about AI tools for SEO can't be bothered to load quickly, why would you trust its SEO advice?
