What a long way we’ve come!

In 2003, I first participated in an event called the Blogathon. It was early days for blogging, and many of today’s ‘gurus’ weren’t even aware what a blog was.

And most bloggers were totally ignorant of the profit potential inherent in blogging. In fact, the participants at the fundraising 24-hour blogging event were shocked that I could even be hinting at using blogs to profit!

In fact, I got roasted by fellow bloggers for suggesting it - and my application to be a part of Blogathon 2004 was REJECTED… because my activities were deemed to be too ‘commercial’.

My conviction however ran deep. I wrote a little ebook called “Blog Profit Ideas Exposed” in which I shared 33 different ways you could profit from blogging. It was a runaway hit - and has sold over EIGHT HUNDRED copies since then.

Today, I was reading a report from problogger Yaro Starak - and was thrilled to hear that he’s making $30,000 a MONTH from blogging! (Wonder what the Blogathon folks might make of that, eh?!)

What makes Yaro’s success so worth talking about is that, in addition to being a great, nice guy, Yaro TEACHES others how to make money from blogging. He got together with Gideon Shalwick (co-author of this report) and shot a series of FREE videos on “How To Become a Blogger” - which received over 60,000 views shortly after it went public.

Excited at the response and flooded by demand for more information, these two guys created a whole new ‘Roadmap to Blogging Success’ and are offering this premium course to anyone who is interested.

But what I’d like to share with you is the impact reading their FREE report could have on your blogging success. Because as I browsed through the 67 pages, it became clear early on that this isn’t quite the usual ’sales pitchy’ freebie - but a content-rich document worth going over.

I found their concept of ‘new school blogs’ and the mysterious ‘X factor’ interesting. And their 5 blogging benchmarks make commonsense milestones for any blogger, beginner or advanced.

You could look on blogging like a bike tour or trekking adventure. You’d start off with a roadmap or guidebook, and then take heart when you reach every milestone that’s marked on it, knowing you’re on the right path to your destination.

And when it’s so easy to go off-track, having a roadmap drawn for you by an experienced traveler is priceless - unless you enjoy meandering around and wasting time, effort or both.

Each section of this short report, called “Roadmap to Become a Blogger”, ends with an ‘Action Plan’ so that you can put the lessons to work in your blogging instantly. You can read the report, work through the simple steps, and experience results from this information almost immediately.

Now, at the half-way mark, you’ll probably be wondering “What’s NEW?” - and that’s the question Yaro and Gideon address next… they call it “X Factor”

If you’re an experienced blogger, you probably WON’T find the 2 components a surprise - but it’s still interesting to see how a very successful blogger weaves them together for massive profit.

After reading the report, you’ll notice something missing from THIS blog - and it will be one of the 2 components of ‘X Factor’. Will I change that soon? Maybe. Yaro is certainly convincing!

The last portion of the FREE report shares techniques to apply the ‘X Factor’ to each of the 5 milestones - once again, breaking down the concepts into directly applicable action steps you can take today and boost your blog’s success.

What’s NOT to like about the report?

Well, if you’re into gripping prose, exciting story-telling, and power-copywriting, then this report will leave you disappointed - even bored. Because it’s not ‘entertaining’ - it is EDUCATIONAL.

If you are a blogger, seeking direction on taking your blog to the ‘next level’, and wondering what more you can do to make things more effective with your blogging, download and devour this report right away.

It’s free. You’ll pay for it only with your time, attention - and your email address! Don’t believe me? Click here and see for yourself.

Become a Blogger… and I hope you make a fortune!
