Hi there this is Steve from Business Online Guidance.
In the next few minutes I'd like to show you the most popular online business model today: blogging.
I'd like to tell you how it works, how you can make money with it
how much time it takes to succeed, what its pros and cons are and so on...
If you're interested in how to make money blogging and
and how to turn it into a full-time living, check out the end of the video as well
where I'll show you the most awesome training course ever created on the topic.
So let's get started and I hope you'll enjoy!
First of all, how does it work?
Well, if you can approach a topic from a unique perspective,
you can start blogging about it.
A blog is a lot like a normal website, with lots of articles related to its topic.
Another thing that's common in a website and a blog is that they all focus on one audience or niche.
A niche can be anything from internet marketing to dog training, ballroom dancing
or anything else. Before you start blogging, you must make sure that your niche has a big engouh audience and lots of profit potential.
So how do you make money as a blogger?
As a blogger, you have the option to sell your own products, put up advertisements on your site,
use affiliate marketing and so on.
The bigger your target audience is, the more money you'll make.
How much does it cost to start blogging?
Starting a blog is one of the cheapest online business ideas.
All you need is a blogging platform like WordPress and hosting.
You can maintain both for less than 1 dollar a day.
How much time does it take to succeed and profit as a blogger?
Of course I can't give you an exact time-fram, but on average it can take 2-3 years to succeed
working 40 hours a week.
Although you can definitely succeed a lot quicker by following the right guidance, which I'll show you in a minute.
But now let's see the pros of blogging as an online business idea.
First, once you're an established blogger, the sky is the limit to what you can do.
Some of the biggest bloggers make millions of dollars.
Second, you can diversify your income streams. Your life won't depend on one single monetization model.
On the other hand, there are a few cons as well, as with everything in life.
First, starting a successful blog is very hard.
There's a ton of competition in almost every profitable niche.
Standing out from the crowd and engaging people is not always easy.
Second, there's so much conflicting information on blogging, you can easily end up getting lost.
Most people just waste a ton of time, money and then give up.
And lastly, blogging is not at all passive.
You have to update your blog and post new articles at least weekly,
reply to comments, emails and inquiries, connect with other bloggers in your field
and so on. But at the end of the day, the hardest part is being unique enough
to get noticed and attract lots of traffic.
So what can you do about it? What is the solution?
In my experience, most people who want to start a blog and make money online fail.
It's mostly because of the reasons I just told you.
However, as promised, there's an online course that can show you how to make money blogging and almost guarantee your success.
To this day, I haven't found a better resource on the topic
than Corbett Barr's How to Start a Blog that Matters course for which you can find the link below.
He walks you through the whole process and shows you step-by-step,
how to become the next blogging success story.
He has helped launch some of the most successful blogs in the past 10 years,
So he knows what he's talking about more than anybody else.
