1. How to Start a Blog that Makes
Money and Never Look Back
Again. Learn from Pro Players.
Let’s face it! You want to learn how start
a blog that pays off ASAP. You want the
roadmap to online “riches”. You find no
pleasure in sitting around and trying
things blindfolded, just to find weeks later
that your effort, time and money were all
flushed down the toilet.
Blogging is simple. Just get on the right
track and you’re almost guaranteed to
win!
That requires you learn the game and
play it differently.
Blogging is Addictive

2. Know how the pros play…
and break the rules!
See what the top dogs do… and act the opposite or do it better. You don’t
need permission to innovate!
Simply put, you have to learn the insights from those who know how to
get traffic that “sticks” and then how to “convert” that traffic into leads,
clients or sales. You add your own spin to it, and create something
phenomenal.
That’s how I started… watching pro bloggers do their magic, and creating
my own show. It wasn’t easy in the beginning, but I started to learn fast…
and results sparkle!

3. Want to know my secret?
Here’s what I had:
• One brain and two hands
• Zero blogging experience
• Basic writing skills & computer knowledge
• Sheer determination and perseverance… Codrut Turcanu
• Make no excuses! I believe you already are (or can be) better
than me, don’t you think?

4. The biggest secret you need
to know about learning
how to start a blog…
Starting a blog that makes money is like growing a tree from seed. Just listen
closely…
First of all, you need to decide on the type of tree you want to grow. That’s
your niche and target audience… don’t just jump right in. Think. Research.
Find your passion.
Secondly, you have to select the right seed (register your domain name)
Thirdly, you plant the seed at the recommend soil depth and at the optimal
time (buy a premium webhost to build a strong blog foundation)
Then, you add water (on-site content) and sun light (off-site content) on a
regular basis. As each day goes by, your plant starts to grow naturally. Next
spring, hopefully you can taste the fruit (get the cash).

5. The paradox of blogging:
Get a Ton of Traffic,
Make No Money
Most pro bloggers whom I talked with (or
interviewed) made almost no money in
their first year blogging.
This guy actually brought so much sun light
to his blog (close to 300 posts within a
year) yet made no cash, just got happy with
traffic and exposure.
Am I saying that you will make no money
with your blog? It depends. 98% of the
bloggers out there start off with big dreams Blogging for traffic
and give up quickly. That’s because they
don’t have a realistic strategy. Most have
no strategy at all.

6. Strategy means to know
beforehand everything
(or more than anybody else)
about your target audience
and competition…
You have to understand SEO (the truth about it, not the myths that the web
is flooded with)... what makes people search particular subjects and how
they THINK online…
You need to learn what makes people click an ad, answer a comment, or
read a post till the end…
Then you have to think differently than anybody else. Be the inventor of
your niche, or somebody else will.

7. Get Number #1
Or Quit Playing!
Before you start writing your first blog post. Even before you start registering
your domain name or selecting your niche, think how to…
Make your blog the Google replica of your niche
Think what happens when you transform your blog into the #1 reference site of
your industry.
Blogging is about attracting the right audience through relevant information.
Give them fish, and they will ask for more. Teach them how to fish, and they’ll
tell others about you.
That means make an effort and habit to create premium content (on and off
site) – never settle for less. Most of your competitors will never become a top-
notch content factory.

8. You can do this all by yourself,
along with a partner, or maybe
with a team that you train/hire
for producing super hot
articles and information.
Everything comes with the experience. And sometimes you can skip the
learning curve. Yes, there are shortcuts you should take advantage of. There’s
not fun to spend a year blogging like crazy, then find your niche topic or target
audience is not making enough profit.
That’s why you need to learn from someone who has been there, done it.
Go all by yourself, and you’ll be slapped by tigers and eaten by sharks. There
are no Penguins or Panda in the zone…

9. Blogging is like a jungle!
There are now more bloggers than ever. It sucks…
anybody can create a page and load it with more ads
than content. Because of that, attention span is fierce.
You’re the first to publish something amazing, or
simply don’t exist.
"Be First – if you’re the first in your niche to do, say or
be something
you’re likely to be linked to heavily by others in your niche
. Being second, third, forth…. in your niche to do, say
or be something will generally have less impact. For
example take a look at the success of the Million
Dollar Homepage in contrast to the main thousands of
copycat pixel advertising sites that followed. Another
example was the One Red Paperclip guy." - Darren Pro Blogging.

10. Creating good content is not
enough. It has to be premium
or it won’t get noticed.
And creating premium content is not enough either. It has to be done on a
massive scale. On and off the blog. Read that again. Let it sink. And then
prepare the strategy to take your industry by storm.
Here’s a guy who took a stand and published 100 posts in 100 days to his
insurance company’s blog. The end result: over $5k in new revenue. I was
so excited about this content-publishing method that I went ahead and asked
Ryan how we come up with the idea.

11. Read his answer:
"Have you ever seen the movie Pulp Fiction? Do
you know the scene where Uma Thurman’s
character overdoses on heroin and John
Travolta’s character has to give her an
adrenaline shot to the heart?
I needed to give my blog an adrenaline shot to
the heart. I couldn’t think of a better way to boost
traffic immediately than use YouTube and
Google+ to answer client questions and push so
much fresh content out there in such a short Content marathon,
period of time that Google Search had to notice." Ryan Hanley

12. It’s time to give your blog
an adrenaline shot to the heart!
What’s your game plan?
What’s your goal? Why
do you want to blog in
the first place?
If you have no destination
in mind, any direction will
seem right. But that’s
wrong, plain suicide.
Translated into blogging
terms, waste of time,
money and effort.
