An Honest Review of Blogging To The Bank 2010

by philgy

By now I think most people in the world know about blogs.

What a lot don’t know, is that a great income can be made from it.

Rob Benwell is only a mere 24 years old and has already made several million dollars doing just that. It was back in early 2006 he shared his secrets for the first time with the world in his highly successful ‘blogging To The Bank’ ebook. As a result, many who purchased that first publication found making money online a whole lot easier.

A little over two years after the success of his first book and with over 20,000 copies sold, if you include the 2007 2.0 update. He is now releasing his third version of ‘Blogging to the Bank’.

I got this book as soon as I could (yes I paid for it) and it does cover quite a lot of new information and techniques to adapt your blog to the new demands of the major search engines. As with most things online, many of the techniques in the old book are now dated and don’t work so well. This is why ‘Blogging To The Bank 2010‘ in my opinion, is a worthwhile purchase.

Also, this guy doesn’t consider himself to be a “guru”, he’s just a normal guy who wants to help the little guys out. I find this refreshing, as he doesn’t talk “down” to you like, so many of the other guys do. He explains everything in an uncomplicated, simple manner making it applicable even for the newbies among us (don’t like the term but you know what I mean).

Saying that, when he “goes off on one” it may take a few reads until you get it, but when you do, it’s just shear genius. Some of the topics in my opinion could have been covered a little more, whereas others went into greater detail.

You also get his ‘5 Blogging Commandments For 2010′ that you should follow to give your blogs the greatest chance of success in 2010 and keep them future proofed. I recommend you print them out and put on your wall.

Final Verdict: If you are operating in the blogging world and want to make money, then ‘Blogging To The Bank 2010‘, clearly shows you step by step the process and tecniques you should be using to achieve your results, highly recommended. Yes I am an affiliate, but as I have already mentioned, I purchased the book for myself immediately.

How to earn more from blogging…

by philgy

I have just found out that Jack Humphrey, the blogging and blog SEO guy, has just released another whopper. Now if you were around when he released the Authority Black Book which I have written about in the past and remember the entire web buzzing about it, well, this is going to be just like that!

And why he’s giving away this trick, I just don’t know.

But what  I do know is, it’s going to make a lot of people very happy.

The facts are, most bloggers aren’t making a dime. Their sites are loaded with ads, affiliate links, and they may even be getting some traffic. But despite this are making nothing or very little. And that’s, the #1 complaint most bloggers have – they just can’t break the profit barrier with their blogs.

Jack’s on a mission to change that for thousands of people this year, starting with this video. Watch it now, it’s crammed with pure content and you’ll immediately want to put it to work on your blog and cash in.

If you’re still mystified by blogging or cannot figure out how these guys making money are doing it, this video is going to open your eyes.

This is something no one has talked about and that Jack hasn’t even shared fully with his mastermind group.

Most of all, it’s easy and quick to implement!

Check it out!

Affiliate Theme

by philgy

Affiliate Theme

The Affiliate Theme is different from all other WordPress themes I have found, as unlike all other themes, it’s not built only for bloggers. It seems, this is the first WordPress theme built exclusively for affiliate marketers and those who build mini-sites, review sites and landing pages.

Although you can easily use Affiliate Theme as a blog theme, its true value lies in the fact that you can build multiple variations of your affiliate marketing landing pages/review sites and track the conversion rate of your changes.

Within the options panel you can change virtually everything about your theme – from layout, colors and fonts, to logo, header graphics, and even the wording on your call to action buttons! This will save you bags of time and money! No longer will you have to re-input all of your offers each time to make a major change to your landing page or review site.

There are a few distinct advantages when using a CMS such as WordPress to build and manage your websites. The fact you can change the look of your site without having to recreate all of your content, as you can now build multiple variations of your affiliate marketing web pages without having to re-input all of your affiliate offers. This saves you from the tedium of creating multiple variations of pages and allows time for testing and making money!

Both new and veteran affiliate marketers alike would appreciate Affiliate Theme’s ease of use and the time saved when it comes to building affiliate marketing sites. New affiliate marketers who are generally unfamiliar with creating effective affiliate marketing websites would be able to easily create, test and track the effectiveness of landing pages.

You can even easily add a “Featured” offer box to any layout, giving you, in effect, twice as many layouts!

Insane typography options! Select the font, font-size, and font color for your headlines, post captions and main body font.

Improve conversion with simpler navigation! Remove the navigation from your Affiliate Theme to make it more like a landing page.

Otherwise, select between displaying the categories and pages in the navigation.

Integrate header and footer tracking scripts without touching a single line of code.

Customize the ‘call-to-action’ buttons for all of your offers! Choose font, background color, size and rollover changes as well.

Affiliate blogging made easy with Affiliate Theme!

How To Make Money From Day 1 With Your Blog

by philgy

Have you been trying for far too long to make money with your blog without success, then listen up. If you had the opportunity to learn from  experts who have trained people like yourself for many years and have a string of success stories to their names would you snatch it with both hands?

No matter your previous experience. Whether beginner, or you have been around for a while, if you have a desire to make money online their primary goal is to have you make money from Day 1.

The 5 areas of focus are:

1 Mindset: a very impotant aspect not often understood. Are you actually ready for success.

2 Content: the old chestnut ‘content is king’. Very true but it must get people talking, creating backlinks and have the search engines crawling all over you.

3. Traffic: learn the techniques the pros use no matter the subject matter of your blog. Keep up to date with search engine techniques, social marketing, networking, linking and more.

4. Monetization: capitalise on your blogs new found popularity.

5. Technical: Ever been phased by all the ‘techie’ stuff? How about some non-geeky training videos accompanied with text and audio to ease your learning curve and take away your fear.

Authority Site Center of which I am a long standing member is about to be morphed into BlogSuccess. I can highly recommend you take a look as it could be one of the most important steps in your online life and lead you to your personal goals of success.

Paid Blogging Can Replace Your Job

by philgy

Did you know that you can make a pretty good living online with blogging? Not only that, did you know that you can do it risk-free?

No capital required (ok maybe just a few dollars) and it doesn’t  take much writing skills either.

And NO, it’s not about Google Adsense or affiliate marketing.

It’s called “Paid Blogging” or “Sponsored Blogging”, and one of the earliest companies to offer this opportunity is PayPerPost.com

Today, there are tons of opportunities to make a living with paid blogging, and you can earn anywhere between $5 to $200 for a single blog post!

That sure beats being a slave to your own online business, blogging away relentlessly day after day just for a few bucks from Adsense.

Anyways, this is what I wanted to share with you…

Gobala Krishnan has all the secrets packed into a 58-page report called “Blog Paycheck”. I’ve just had a look at it and it certainly seems to cover all the bases.

The entire “Paid Blogging” industry is totally new to me, but this report pretty much revealed everything I needed to know.

You can get more information here.

Considering it’s such a HOT topic today, I’m pretty surprised that no one has yet come up with a complete guide to “Paid Blogging”

The Exciting New Frontier Of Professional Blogging

by philgy

Professional blogging is a very new idea with a lot of potential for entrepreneurs who have insight, drive, and a basic understanding of today’s innovative web technology. The ranks of so-called pro bloggers are still quite small, and there are very few people who make their living entirely off of their blogs. However, every day there are more and more people who have managed to turn their weblogs into cash cows that supplement their income. The number of pro bloggers is growing by leaps and bounds, but it is difficult to say whether this trend will continue.

Blogging for Profit Begins With a Long Term Plan

by philgy

Many people dream of blogging for profit, and this goal is not far beyond the reach of someone with average intelligence, a willingness to work hard, and a basic grasp of blogging technology. However, very few people manage to reap the profits they want from their blog. Most people who attempt to make money with their blogs do not succeed for two reasons.
