Can You Make Money Blogging? 77 Brilliant Tools So You Truly Can
You might read everywhere about how blogging is the easy thing to make money nowadays. But don’t you ever feel like questioning if you can make money blogging at all? You’re not alone. It’s much more difficult than people think. But don’t let that discourage you!
The Hard Part About Blogging
There have been so many times in my own blogging journey when I’ve felt hopeless and overwhelmed by what I was learning and doing. I have struggled to overcome challenges like increasing my traffic and income in ways that matched my brand and values.
It’s taken years to finally start seeing progress and changes in growth. Overall, blogging has been one of those incredible “make or break me” parts of my life.
At the same time I can hardly believe I get to do something I love so much, earn money from home, and be part of such a special community.
But it isn’t always easy, and the fast-changing nature of the blogosphere means I can’t ever stop learning how to be a better blogger.
I can’t ever stop learning how to be a better blogger.
Continually Learning Is How You Can Make Money Blogging
I’ve found my blogs really thrive when I’m
- growing in my skills,
- connecting with others who get the work I’m doing,
- and pushing myself to try new things and improve my weaknesses.
I make a point of prioritizing my growth as a blogger, and one of the best ways I’ve found is by learning from other experienced bloggers who’ve mastered things sooner than I have.
Problem is, it can get pretty pricey to buy all the new books or courses that cover the topics I am looking for. But I don’t want you to be in the same place as I was the first year of my blogging journey. There is a FASTER and easier way to get the information you need to make blogging successful.
The Genius Blogger’s Toolkit
*The Genius Blogger’s Toolkit is no longer for sale. You can grab my list of all the Business Tools I use everyday in this freebie!
So I wanted to make sure you knew about the Genius Blogger’s Toolkit. It’s a digital package crammed full of brilliant tools to help you
- grow your blog,
- work smarter, and
- make more money.
The team at Ultimate Bundles has put together the best resources on ALL the topics that matter to bloggers, like:
- mastering social media,
- monetization,
- creating and selling products,
- time management and productivity,
- nurturing an email list, and so much more.
Here’s what is in the Genius Blogger’s Toolkit:
- 24 eBooks
- 33 eCourses & audio files
- 5 printable packs
And you won’t believe how much the value of all these resources adds to be …. over $3,6000!!! But the truly amazing part?
They’re selling it for a crazy 97% off of regular price!
That’s blogging tips, strategies, tutorials and amazingly practical information and ideas for just $97.
In total, the Genius Blogger’s Toolkit includes over $3,600 of blogging tips, strategies, tutorials and amazingly practical information and ideas.
Then on top of that, you get free bonus offers worth $1250+, with 15 tools and services to help you run your blog. I wish I had known about just a SINGLE one of these when I started blogging; I would be much farther along in my journey than I am now.
See a complete list of all the exact resources in the toolkit at the bottom of this post. That said, I wanted to just highlight a couple of items within the Toolkit bundle that are personally used, love, and highly recommend.
Building a Framework: The Ultimate Blogging Handbook eBook + Bonus Video by Abby Lawson ($75.00)
Abby is such a sweetheart, and she doesn’t even blog about blogging. But her business exploded so she developed this eBook to help guide others along their way. I wouldn’t even call it an eBook though because it’s jam packed with enough information that’s worthy of an entire course.
If you’re looking for a guide to build something from scratch, this is one of my favorites!
Productivity Guide for Bloggers by Ruth Soukup ($97.00)
I’ve personally just finished going through Ruth’s guide this past month. And I can tell you that it’s more than just a guide. It’s a complete system and methodology that helps you plan your entire year, breaking down your goals, and defining single daily tasks in order to move ahead with whatever you’re trying to accomplish.
Sometimes we’re so scatter-brained as bloggers and think that all the effort we’re putting in is actually making progress. Sadly it’s not, though, a lot of the time. The Productivity Guide For Bloggers helps you focus on EXACTLY what matters so that you can ensure your efforts are productive. I highly recommend this guide above any other sort of planner out there.
Pinaffiliate Masterclass by Adeline Ganley ($97.00)
I love what Addy teaches in this masterclass. There is SO much more to making money and bringing in traffic from Pinterest than people think. It’s virtually a shopping catalog that buyers are swimming through every single day. But how do you profit from it?
Addy walks you through systems you can put into place with the content that is already on your blog. These systems will channel your readers into sales funnels that can work automatically for you, all from a single click on a pin! I also really like how she breaks concepts down into beginner, intermediate, and advanced levels so it doesn’t matter where you’re. You can apply everything to the current state of your blog.
Pinterest is my top traffic source for one of my blogs, and so it’s a definite focus for me. I’m so glad that I took Addy’s Pinaffiliate Masterclass, and so will you!
It’s A Smart Buy Even If You’re Just Accessing A Couple Of Things
So those are my top three favorites from this bundle. If you added up those alone, that’s over $269 of fantastic resources with proven results. So even if you just picked through and focused on a couple of books or courses from the Toolkit, you would already be saving a ton of investment by getting them in the bundle now.
I know, it sounds too good to be true, but I promise it’s not. Ultimate Bundles has been around a long time and creating these packages is really their thing (they’ve sold over 180,000 of them on all sorts of topics).
Even better, they’re all about making sure you LOVE this toolkit. There’s a full 30-day happiness guarantee, so there’s really no problem in trying it out if you’re unsure.
It’s Only Available For A Couple Of Days
But I want to make sure you’re absolutely aware of this: the Genius Blogger’s Toolkit is available for just two days. So don’t let it pass by!
This coming Monday and Tuesday, April 3rd and 4th 2017, is the only time you can grab this deal. After Tuesday night, April 4th, the sale ends and you would have to buy all of these products individually.
Plus What I’m Going To Do For You
Also, because I am determined to help you get on the right track for blogging SUCCESS, I am going to do something that I’ve never done before. I’m giving away a FREE half hour coaching session to anyone who gets a copy of the Blogger’s Toolkit.
I want to help you get over a roadblock, past a struggle, or help you figure out whatever you’re confused with. The learning curve for blogging can be HUGE! I want to help make it a bit easier for you. Here’s how we’re gonna make it happen:
- Grab yourself a copy of the Genius Blogger’s Toolkit
- Email a copy of your receipt to me (sarah@jsbrd4mi3w.wpdns.site)
- Then I’ll send back a link to my calendar so we can schedule a time to sit and chat.
And just to wrap things up, I have no idea if this flash sale is going to be back or not, ever! So that’s why I wrote this blog post a few days in advance to be sure and give you some advantage.
I would hate for you to miss out. You can learn more to be notified of when it goes on sale, or get your bundle here:
