The first mistake bloggers make when they start a blog is that they start blogging.

That sounds strange, right?

But look at the reality… You started a blog and after six months or a year of blogging, all you have is 50 blog posts. If you were smart, you used SEO and you are getting a stream of visitors. If you were even smarter, then you used Pinterest and you are getting 50 or 100 thousand visitors.

Then what?

Blogging doesn’t make you money all by itself.

Blog posts written don’t equal money. The time you spent writing 50 blog posts could have been spent on writing a course that you can now sell for a profit.

Traffic doesn’t equal money. Are you happy about getting 200,000 visitors and making $2,000 a month on MediaVine? Then you are in the wrong game.

When you start a blog, set it up, publish 10 high quality blog posts, then start creating your paid products. This way you can start making real money in a few months, depending on the time you put in.

I am going to show you how to set up a course like this.

The second mistake… Even if you were smart to create a paid e-book or service, you have no idea how to put peoples’ eyes on it.

The standard way to do it is SEO and social media.

While you need SEO and I created an entire course about it, the problem is that it can take a year or several years and a LOT of content research and writing until you start getting traffic.

That is far too long, too much work for little return.

This is how it should go:

You start your blog
Realistically it takes a couple of weeks to a month to set up your home page, your autoresponder, Google Analytics, etc
It takes another month to write 5-10 blog posts or you can outsource it.
Create your paid product
Start selling it

You should be making good money 3 months after you started. I will show you how.
