This post is designed to give you a quick and actionable guide to creating an information product (ebook, video course, etc) that you can sell or give away for free on your blog.
This is a pretty huge topic that you could spend years learning about, but in my experience it’s better to start with a simple outline and just start creating.
You’re going to learn so much the first time you complete this that the sooner you have a product out there, the better!
So, let’s get started!
In this post I want to explore a few fundamental truths that shape my life, relationships, and my approach to business.
I don’t expect you to agree with everything you read because this is very personal, but as usual I just hope it makes you think.
When you’re done reading I to encourage you to write your own “things I know to be true” list, because I think it’s a great exercise.
Without further ado…
First off: A HUGE mistake that many bloggers make is that they try to speak to a broad audience.
The sad truth is, if you’re trying to connect with everybody you’re connecting with nobody.
You can’t please everyone, unfortunately. So, you want to aim to make a small group of people insanely happy.
In this post I want to explore a few ways that you can have a closer relationship with the readers of your blog so they will trust you more, be more engaged, and so you can better help them achieve their goals.
Let’s talk about how you can do this for your blog.
Today you’re going to learn some of the ways you can do more than just write blog posts. This is about creating engaging content that both search engines and your readers will love.
Many bloggers tend to simply brainstorm and write whatever is on top of their head, or even worse, what they think their audience wants.
That is a recipe for disaster.
Instead, let’s explore a few ways you can create content that your audience is starving for and will love to read and share.
In this post you’re going to learn the nuts & bolts of building your blog, giving you a strong foundation on which to build on.
As with many of my posts you’ll be learning from my mistakes so you can get it right the first time without the gallons of coffee and all-night coding sessions. 
Here we go…
In this process you’re going to learn how you can save yourself hundreds of hours of wasted time by doing what I like to call “succeeding before you begin.”
Before you ever write a single blog post you need to research a few things: Yourself, your audience, and other blogs in your niche.
I’m going to make a few assumptions about you (sorry) and your goals…
I’m assuming you want a high-traffic blog with a happy engaged audience that brings in around $100,000 per year in revenue.
This goal is completely reachable in 6 months to a year, from scratch. However, to reach this goal you absolutely need to follow every last letter in the niche research process. Without it, you’d have better luck winning the lottery.
Have I convinced you that you really, really need to do this yet? Ok, Good.
In this post you’re going to learn how you can create an email auto-responder that builds the relationship between you and your readers, and can also generate a passive income stream for your business.
It’s pretty simple. When someone visits your blog and subscribes to your email list, you want to continually follow-up with them and provide them with valuable and relevant info. That is why they signed up, right?
The problem I see most bloggers face is not knowing what to send. To be honest, the second biggest mistake a blogger can make is not leveraging their email list (the first biggest is not building a list in the first place).
So with that said, let me show you a simple framework you can use to build an email auto-responder that your readers will love and will bring in passive revenue for your business.
Who else wants more free traffic from Google and a thriving audience of subscribers for their blog?
Well.. Pretty much everybody!
I might be creating a free ebook for you that gives you the fundamental steps that all bloggers need to take to drive traffic, subscriptions, and customers to their website or blog and the tools you’ll need to make it happen.
I have the basic outline done but before I go any further I would really appreciate feedback from you. After all, this is for you!
Let me share with you the outline I have, to the ebook I’ll be calling “The 6 Steps to a High-Traffic & Profitable Blog.” After checking it out, I’d really appreciate you leaving a quick comment to tell me what you think.
WordPress can be extremely SEO friendly, however the default settings aren’t very good. So, if you’re just using the defaults (as many people are) you may have a pretty tough time getting good rankings or any real traffic from search engines.
Watch this video (and download the worksheet) to learn how to setup WordPress to be significantly more search engine friendly.
In this video you’re going to learn what the foundation of a successful SEO campaign looks like.
