The Biggest Secret to Growing Your Blog to Six or Even Seven Figures per Year

Would you like to know?

Let me be blunt: there are very few people in the world who can tell you.

The vast majority of so-called A-listers are just bright but otherwise normal people who were in the right place, writing about the right things, at the right time. Many are my clients, paying me as much as $5,000 per month to advise them.

Why would they pay such outrageous fees?

Because they stumbled into popularity. Because they have no idea how to monetize it. Because they realize they got lucky, and they are desperate to seize the opportunity before it slips away from them.

So, they come to me. Here’s why:

When you do something amazing once, you might know what you’re doing. When you do it twice, you probably know what you’re doing. When you do it three times, you definitely know what you’re doing.

Well, I’ve built a blog to seven figures three separate times.

First, I worked under Brian Clark as we built Copyblogger into a multimillion dollar brand. Next, I worked with Neil Patel and Hiten Shah to launch the KISSmetrics blog, bringing in hundreds of thousands of visitors in just the first few months. After that, I started my own blog, Boost Blog Traffic, and I took it to seven figures within two years.

Could I just be lucky?

Maybe, but it’s far more likely that I’m one of the few people in the world who truly understands how to build and monetize blogs. And right here, right now, I’ll tell you my biggest “secret:”

Stop messing around with blogs in your spare time. Instead, look at this like a career and get serious about mastering your craft.

“WHAT?! No magic traffic or monetization tricks?”

Nope. Sorry to disappoint you.

The truth is far less appetizing, I’m afraid:

You’ve heard stories about how athletes dedicate their lives to the mastery of their sport. They train for hours upon hours every day until they are the absolute best in the world at what they do.

Well, that’s how I treat blogging.

To me, it’s not just a little hobby I tinker around with on the side. It’s a career, a profession, maybe even a calling.

And I’ve dedicated thousands upon thousands of hours to the mastery of my craft.

Want to be as good as me?

Well, until recently, you only had two options:

1. Drop everything in your life and think about nothing but blogging for the next decade
2. Pay me $1,000 an hour to teach you what I’ve learned

If you’re a beginner though, both options are problematic.

First, you have a job and a family, so you can’t just drop everything and become a blogging addict. Second, you probably can’t afford to pay me $1,000 an hour.

The solution?

The Only Training Program Designed Exclusively for Serious Bloggers Who Are Tired of Messing around With Free, Watered-Down Content

From what I’ve seen, there are two types of bloggers:

• Hobbyists: people who like the idea of having a place to express their thoughts but have no expectations. They just like writing, and they don’t care if anything comes of it. If they make some money, great, but if nothing ever happens, that’s fine too.
• Serious Bloggers: people who see their blog as a means to an end. Sure, they love writing, but their real purpose is to create a side income, build a platform for their book, attract clients, or promote their business. In other words, they’re not blogging just for fun. They expect results.

The problem is, most of the blogging advice out there is for Hobbyists. It’s watered-down, extremely simple content that gives you a few tips and tricks but fails to teach you how to get real results from your blog.

And it’s frustrating as hell.

If you’re a serious blogger, you don’t want some stupid list post giving you 100 ways to do something. You want the one strategy that works every single time you try it, and you want to dive deep into that strategy so you can really understand it.

If you’re a serious blogger, you’re sick of listening to interviews where a famous blogger gives you vague advice like “create great content” or “just keep writing.” You want a one-page checklist for everything you have to do, broken down into steps you can actually follow.

If you’re a serious blogger, you’re tired of wading through thousands of articles, reading contradictory advice, and trying to figure out how to piece it all together. You want someone to just tell you what to do, so you can stop wasting time and get some freaking results.

But no one is offering anything like that. Until now.

It’s Yours: Everything I Know About Building a Profitable Blog

For the first time, I’m publishing everything I know about building a profitable blog. Every month, you’ll receive:

Normally, I only talk about traffic, and we’ll cover that here too, but I’ll also dive deep into building your email list, advanced writing techniques, technical setup, and the topic everyone wants to know about: monetization. Not just a few vague steps either, but nuts and bolts instruction showing you every single step and detail.

In fact, I’m betting you’ll be staggered at how much I give you. Every month, you’ll receive an entire course with:

• A 20-30 page special report. This isn’t some beginner-level document teaching you a bunch of stuff you already know. I dive deep into advanced tactics and strategies, giving you real-life examples from myself and my clients, breaking it down so you understand exactly what to do.
• Screenshots, checklists, and process maps – everything you need to take action and get results fast.
• Short, to-the-point videos giving you real-life examples of us putting the strategies from the report into action. In other words, no more wondering what to do. Instead of stumbling around by yourself, you’ll be able to watch me and my staff do it, and you can follow our example to do it yourself.

How Is All This Different from the
Posts We Publish for Free?

Good question.

At 20-30 pages, we’ll go into much greater depth than we can in a typical 2,000 word blog post. We’ll talk a lot more about how to do everything, instead of just telling you what to do. You’ll also receive checklists and any other supplementary materials we think might be helpful.

These are also much more advanced topics. On the blog, we’re forced to cater to absolute beginners who haven’t really committed to building a popular blog yet. All they want is a few basic tips, not in-depth material designed to help them achieve mastery.

But if that’s all you needed, you’d already be a six-figure blogger, right?

That’s why we created Serious Bloggers Only: to help you get to the next level. And yes, that involves giving you more advanced training, but it also means upping your game.

We’re not going to water down the content or hover around and make sure you do the homework. It’s time to put on your big boy (or girl) pants, and get to work.

In some ways, this whole program is a type of graduation.

When you first started, you were probably happy with all the free content on the web. It was all you could handle.

Now though, you might be feeling like a lot of the posts out there are a little… fluffy. They give you a lot of ideas, but they don’t give you step-by-step details on exactly how to do it and get results.

If that’s the case, it’s time for you to “graduate” to Serious Bloggers Only. You’re ready.

HOW IS THIS DIFFERENT FROM OUR GUEST BLOGGING CLASS?

Guestblogging.com is a masterclass in a single, powerful traffic strategy. It covers everything you could possibly want to know about guest blogging… but nothing else.

Serious Bloggers Only, on the other hand, covers a little bit of everything. It gives you a crash course in a new topic every month, teaching you just enough to take action and get results.

It’s kind of like a big, fat recipe book versus attending a French chef school.

Serious Bloggers Only is the recipe book. You’ll get lots of tried-and-true “recipes” for making your blog a raving success, covering every “cuisine” imaginable.

GuestBlogging.com is the French chef school. You’ll become a master of a single “cuisine,” and if you work hard, you might even become world-renowned for your skills.

Which one should you buy?

Well, both of them, of course. Duh. 🙂

If you’re serious, you want all the education you can get. Recipe books are helpful, but at a certain point, you also want to achieve mastery, and to do that, you’ll need a masterclass dedicated to that topic.

You can’t choose one or the other. They both have their place.

How Is This Different from the
Other Membership Programs for Bloggers?

The biggest difference:

Everything I give you in Serious Bloggers Only is compact.

No webinars to attend, no interviews listening to people stutter and go on tangents, no sitting in front of your computer for hours and hours on end watching videos. I hate that as much as you do.

So, instead, I give you a report you can read in 30 minutes, teaching you all the important things you need to know and nothing else. You also get checklists to help remind you what to do, making it easier for you to take action without reading the report again and again.

Another difference:

We have different strengths. None of our competitors can say they make $50,000 per webinar, nor are they as good at autoresponders as us.

But they’re better at other things. Like infographics, for example. We still haven’t done one of those. We don’t do a lot of affiliate marketing either, so if that’s what you want to learn, you’re better off looking elsewhere.

I only release training on things we actually do. Anything else would be kinda dishonest.
