Blogging to the Bank 3.0 – is it worth your $37 investment? I’ve bought Rob Benwell’s products in the past and been very satisfied with them. I’ve even recommended them to my list and have never seen a refund come through for one of them.

I bought Blogging to the Bank 3.0 the second the doors opened. To be honest, I’d been waiting for it. I really enjoyed the 2.0 version (oh, and Rob – if you happen to see this blog, your guarantee on BttB 3.0 still says 2.0 in it).

So what’s my review of Blogging to the Bank 3.0?

I ordered. I paid. I entered the email address for my download info to be sent to. I got taken to a OTO page. I declined. I waited. Download link didn’t come. I get annoyed when I buy something and don’t get it right away. Part of that whole instant gratification thing. The way they had me type in my email address, I started wondering if maybe I typo’d somewhere in there. THEN how would I get my product because there’s no way to contact Rob from his domain! So I had to send an email to ClickBank. Pain in the butt.

How is it?

I can’t review it until I actually get my copy.

Maybe in the meantime if you got yours, you can tell ME!

Everyone wants a piece of the blogging money pie. There are tales (true, I might add), of people selling off blogs for $15 million. People making six figure salaries blogging routinely about this and that. Blog money is real, but you need to know how it’s evolving to have a true impact in the blog world.

Liz Tomey has a great (cheap at just $8.97) product called How to Make Money as a Video Blogger. Don’t panic! Video isn’t hard – you just think it is. If this tech dummy can do it, so can you. First, the author of this course is someone whose name resonates with all marketers. It’s synonymous with respect.

I started a video blog in another niche, which shall remain nameless. lol It’s a totally different world doing video blogs but one that’s lucrative if you maintain your momentum and don’t slack off because you have better things to do.

Text no longer does it for many consumers. Even on this blog I sometimes add video to it. I stick them on YouTube and embed them into my blog so visitors don’t have to leave to watch it. It’s a great way to build a rapport with your target audience and get them to trust you.

Doing something a bit new this time around. I launched a Blog Buddy packet you can buy so that you can have plenty of content fr your blog that will cover you for a week, a month, a half year – or whatever you need!

If you blog, then you know how hard it is to keep fresh content on your blog on a regular basis. I’m here to solve that problem.

If you own a blog for your business, one of the best ways you can monetize it, or boost revenue, is to use PLR content. You can find many types of PLR material being offered, and some of it’s perfect for use on your blog.

Almost any topic you can think of has some type of PLR content already made for inclusion on your blog. There are several ways that you can go about using the PLR content, but the one way NOT to use it is to stick it up on your blog just as you receive it.

You’ll need to make certain adjustments, or even rip it all apart and put it back together again. Does that sound too complicated?  Well, truthfully, it isn’t hard to do at all, and you’ll probably be surprised at how quickly it can be done.

You can purchase PLR articles and use them for content, after an initial amount of rewriting is done. Some people only change about 30% of the content, while I prefer to use the PLR content as more of a research tool.

Rewriting the articles doesn’t take very long, and they can be a great catalyst to break you out of writer’s block very quickly. After you have changed the articles, you can do one of several things:

1.) You can set them up to auto post to your blog, giving you extra content on a regular basis

2.) You can create a free report to give away as a subscriber freebie

3.) You can add a few more finishing touches to create a product for sale from your blog. By adding a few graphics and fleshing out the content you can have a new product up and running fairly quickly. Throw in a professional eBook cover and offer resale rights, and your product could fly off the digital bookshelf at a surprising rate!

Something that’s particularly hot in the IM industry now is video. By creating videos using the PLR content you buy, you can either put it on your site as a paid member’s only section, or offer the PLR rights to the videos.

If you’re a bit unsure about the video, then you can also recreate the PLR content as audio content. Creating PLR content for download into the iPod and personal MP3 players is a great way to get people to your blog, and you can also make it available as paid content.

People are already accustomed to paying for audio downloads, so they should have no qualms paying for yours. Using PLR content on your blog is a great way to not only attract visitors, but to feed the loyal visitors that you already have.

You can make PLR work for you, and boost your blog’s income. It’s all in using the PLR that’s readily available, and putting your own touches on it to make it unique. You can find Private Label Rights articles, report, and autoresponders for all kinds of niche markets on PLRMiniMart.com at about $1 a page.

I love blogs. I can set one up and within 24 hours start seeing organic traffic from the search engines.  I even set up a theme template with some pre-filled info and it’s funneling traffic to me from Google!

But blogging requires you to know a few details about how to set it up.  You can’t just go to Blogger.com or WordPress.com and start blogging because then THEY are in control of your marketing – not YOU.

Blogs help you develop a following, so I have started digging into any and all info I can about increasing my efforts in this area.

There are two guides I’ve read to date and I enjoyed both. The first one that got me started was Blogging to the Bank.  I like this one because it’s geared toward your money-making efforts.  But it wasn’t the FIRST eBook I should have read… Read the rest of this entry »

My mentor mentioned this in passing and I started digging around and MAN – I can’t wait to get my hands on Firepow. It’s Andrew Hansen’s blogging software that is way more than just the typical blogging tool people use.
