I just wanted to reach out and say thank you for the information that you have provided so far. I just watched your video about not giving up and believe it or not, it was just at the right time. I have been blogging for quite a while now, but like many people I’m finding it quite difficult to grow my audience and to make sales. I created a site called “the make money online zone” – http://www.makemoneyonline.zone with the intention of it being a review site teaching people the best ways to earn money online. I was scammed a lot when I first started learning affiliate marketing, so I have included a lot of “scam alerts” and things to avoid. Although I feel like I am producing quality content for my readers it would seem that my competition is always a little ahead of me.

I would genuinely like to learn how to earn money through a blog, whilst still providing quality that people love. I’m looking forward to further advice from you and hope that you will be able to give me some pointers.

My name is Cody and I am in the fitness world. I coach at a gym that takes on clients for small group training classes, so they are personal and focused. Our goal is to help people feel better, move better, and be happier all around people regardless of numbers, building lifestyle habits! I am working on updating the blog and I want this blog to be great, not just some lazy, uneducated, boring piece of crap. I want people to learn from it as well as see who I am personality wise, based on my writing. I want the business I am involved with to grow and I believe that having great content that is informing and attention grabbing is important! I haven’t written anything serious in years and look forward to what I can learn from you! Thanks!

What I want is to get businesses to use my job board to post jobs, access resumes from registered job seekers, site advertising, company profiles, and other stuff normally done on a job board and automate it. Then I learnt how to build a job board using WordPress (I have neither the experience, the knowledge about building a website until I started building my own website). Throw in blog – nil experience, nil knowledge…

Later on I’d like to share my experience and the mistakes I made in starting up my business.

My business motivates competitive athletes to reach their highest potential. I offer empowerment activities to help engrave a positive attitude into athletes minds. I help athletes learn about themselves so they can use their own strengths to become better athletes. I have articles as well but my main focus for now is the blog. I think it will help build my business because athletes can look at it when they are stuck or need guidance. They can also incorporate my ideas into their weekly training. Parents/guardians or family members of athletes can read it and pass on the message. Coaches can also use it as a resource to help build confident athletes.

My plan is to create DIY home decor blogs and vlogs that show, explain, and give tips on decorating your home, choosing colors for a room, and other tips on paintings. I’m going to use my paintings, that I am selling, in the pictures and demonstrations. I will then have a “recreate the look” section with each blog/vlog post that showcases the painting used with a buy now button.

I feel like a genius right now! Thanks to your help Derek! Now I just have to learn how to market the blogs. Can’t wait to hear what you have to say.

You are amazing! This is the first time I am commenting in your blog. I really liked your YouTube channel where you delivery valuable content for free and in way memorable way. I still remember the 200$ hard cut video LOL.

By the way, I am a full time student from the UK and I wanted to say that creating a blog is surely a profitable way to market your product, but my question is how do you manage everything? How do you find the time to reply to comment, e-mails, make video, blog articles etc etc?

Hope to hear from you.

Many thanks,
Rubel
