BlogFlipz – A great way to make money from blogs
Everyone is talking about blogs these days. They are my websites
of preference because they are so quick and easy to build.
The Blogging to the Bank ebook was so popular because it
explained just how straightforward it is to make money from your
blogs.
WordPress blogs are free to produce and only take moments to
install (the process is actually done for you).
Google loves blogs and getting them to rank and receive free
traffic is quite simple.
All those things mean that if you are not yet blogging you should
do so soon, and if you are, you should do it some more.
And now there is another, even more compelling reason to take
notice of the blogging world.
For the last five years, Tony Newton has been making a handsome
full-time income from making simple WordPress blogs and then
selling them. That’s right – the correct term is site flipping
and Tony has it down to a fine art.
Now my friend Tony Shepherd has sat Tony Newton down and got him
to share exactly what he does, how he does it and what he expects
to make from it. They have called their joint product
‘BlogFlipz’.
Your eyes will be opened.
The result is a PDF document (for those who like to read) and 10
videos (for those who like to view) that take you from start to
finish. You’ll learn how he (and you, after you’ve absorbed all
the step-by-step info) can throw up a simple blog and sell it for
up to $100 in a single day – or how he (and you?) easily builds
high traffic blogs over a few weeks that can sell for thousands
of dollars.
The course describes how to build three different types of blogs
and how you can make money from selling each of them.
There is a big market for blogs – but the catch is that they have
to be built, managed and presented in the right way to attract
the big dollars. BlogFlipz gives you all the information you need
to do it the right way.
As Tony Shepherd says, “And remember, this is a FULL start to
finish course – no matter what level of skill you’re at, it means
that YOU can grab this course and start working towards your own
REAL work at home business.”
And as Tony Newton says at the end of the video course: “Now you
have everything you need to make your own WordPress sites, and
sell them.”
BlogFlipz is easy to follow (none of the videos are over long)
and very modestly priced – and there is a full money-back
guarantee if you are not happy with it, so there is no downside.
The upside is that you could be flipping blogs by this time
tomorrow and building your way to a full-time income from a
highly in-demand business.
Don’t miss this one – flipping sites is big business and
BlogFlipz gives you the real low-down in easily digestible form.
Have fun and make great profits!
Don’t be a cheapskate – this is a real business…

Speaking of which, there are two threads right now that are interesting. One is from someone moaning that Blogger.com has deleted all his blogs and the other from someone who is saying that WordPress.com have done the same.
Both services allow you to set up blogs for free, and they host them for you.
In effect, they own your blog. And as a result, if they decide they don’t like you, or what you’ve posted, they can instantly delete all your hard work.
And they often do because many people ignore the terms and conditions they agree to when they sign up and create blogs that break the rules.
Doh! Of course they delete stuff they don’t like.
The only surprise to me is why anyone would allow someone else that much power of their business?
Buying a domain is cheap. Buying hosting is cheap. And once you have those two things, setting up a real WordPress site on your own domain, under your own hosting costs nothing.
So why, oh why, would anyone not do that?
I know that the $20-$30 dollars needed to buy the domain and hosting is still money that some people don’t currently have, but unless you are prepared to invest that small amount you can never, ever, say you have a business. You will always be at a third party’s mercy. And ‘Woe is me, the blogs I’ve worked so hard to produce’ threads on the Warrior Forum will continue to be commonplace.
Blogging is an excellent strategy. It can get you very high Google rankings very quickly. And in the process, it can make you a lot of money.
But for goodness sake, stay in control of your own destiny and use your own domains and hosting from the very start.
Rob Benwell’s Blogging to the Bank 2010 ebook tells you how to get started in blogging the right way. Incidentally, I’ve been saying that this is the third edition of the book, but I’m mistaken – it is in fact the 4th.
My Twitter followers have sailed past 2000 thanks to Twittollower…

My Twitter followers have reached 1997 – so close to the magic 2000 that I can smell it! I’m sure that particular barrier will be powered through in the next few hours.
Twittollower is certainly performing brilliantly and my website traffic is feeling the benefit very nicely.
The secret, if there IS such a thing as a secret, to Twitter seems to me to be the same *secret* that confuses people so much about Google. That is to be as informative and natural as you can be.
So many people think that they can get high Google rankings, or responsive follower lists in Twitter, by churning out impersonal, automated, pitch-fest junk. But thankfully, success doesn’t come via that particular route.
You’ll so often hear people bemoaning the fact that their latest strategies don’t work, when those strategies usually entail buying in garbage articles from barely literate ghost writers, throwing up content-less websites, posting unhelpful, automated blog posts and tweeting endless affiliate links.
Those are not strategies that work. Believe me – I’ve tried them all!
What works is to provide real, useful, naturally-written information.
What works is to put the reader first and your profits second.
What works is to use your common sense: would YOU want to read what you have blogged/posted on your website/tweeted? Because if you wouldn’t, what on Earth makes you think anyone else would?
