Just about everyone knows what a blog is, even a 5 year old! Do you have one? Are you blogging daily, recording your thoughts and life online? On the other hand, have you joined the thousands who are attempting to make money with blogs? Are you making money with your blog? If not, then you may wish to check out Blogging to the Bank 2 by Rob Benwell. This article will give you a Blogging to the Bank Review including the good and the bad.
Rob Benwell is self-described guy who has dedicated the last two years or so to making money online with blogs. His first ebook, Blogging to the Bank 1 explained exactly how he was setting up blogs for adsense and affiliate commission income and supposedly raking in huge amounts of affiliate commissions.
Yet, as we all know, the internet changes in a blink (it seems) and almost all his tips & tricks in Blogging to the Bank 1 became obsolete. He states in his rather blaring sales letter for Blogging to the Bank 2 that he has been using
new techniques to grab affiliate commissions from his blogging endeavors.
His online history seems to be the same ‘ole story …
In 2005, Rob was trying all the moneymaking techniques spouted by the so-called gurus and was losing money fast and getting deep into debt.
He decided to try a few of his own techniques using very simple blogs. He wrote the ebook explaining these techniques called Blogging to the Bank 1. As stated above, the internet changes and his tips and techniques from Volume 1 no longer work. He says he adapted to the changes and the outcome is his new Volume 2 ebook.
Blogging to Bank 2 does reveal several new, up to date techniques for optimizing your blog especially for generating affiliate commission money. Yet, you can find most of this information online free. What you cannot find is all of the information in one place. Nor, can you find the exact formula he says he uses to almost instantly bring in targeted visitors.
His sales letter irritatingly states that you can setup moneymaking blogs extremely fast, even if the whole concept is unfamiliar to you, using his new techniques. I found this information incorrect. I believe it would take an inexperienced person hours to go through the ebook and follow the directions to get a workable blog online. In addition, this does not take into account the amount of online marketing required to start receiving buying visitors. Therefore, in my opinion the time required for this endeavor is hugely understated.
Blogging to Bank 2 does offer several good suggestions for choosing affiliate programs to promote, optimizing your blog(s) for sales conversion, search engine indexing and search engine optimization. His instructions are, for the most part, easy to understand, yet a very inexperienced person may have to do extra research online for some of the terms he uses.
In this ebook, Rob also recommends several free tools and wordpress plug-ins to use, and includes several downloads with the purchase of the ebook. The free keyword tool he recommends is an excellent keyword research tool; and the wordpress plug-ins he recommends are also good suggestions.
In summary, I would recommend the purchase of Blogging to the Bank 2 if you would like to learn:
- The very latest techniques for making money with blogs;
- How to choose profitable niche markets;
- How to optimize blogs for sales conversion;
- How to optimize blogs for quick search engine indexing and high placement.
Keep in mind that most of the above information can be found free online, yet with this purchase, you will have the information all in one place instead of having to spend a considerable amount of time finding the free information. You should also be fully aware that the time it takes to implement these techniques could be considerable. This depends on your experience level in working with blogs and their coding.
