Over the next few days, we’ll release some more videos, each teaching a different aspect of blogging, and then we’ll open doors to our all NEW version of Become A Blogger. We’ve had over 3,000 people go through the original course now, and have had over 30,000 people consume our free video training online.
Let me know what you think about this whole blogging thing below in the comments area 
I’ve got a treat for you. Inside today’s video, I’d like to share with you the secret to your blogging success. I want to share with you a really cool little system that you might not have seen before and I think you’re going to love it.
Hi there! Gideon Shalwick here. You might have seen the emails going around the internet about our new Become A Blogger course that’s launching very very soon, at the time of this recording.
Before I tell you about that, there’s something else that I’d like to share with you. That is the secret that I see to blogging success. I’ve been at it now for a number of years, blogging actively now for about five years. I’ve seen many many successful blogs. I’ve been able to set up some of my own successful blogs, as well. Not just one, but multiple ones.
I’ve trained many many people to become successful bloggers as well, who go through the training courses that I’ve provided online.
There are a few things that stood out as the common things that make blogs successful. I’d like to share with you this system. I think once you’ve seen this system, it will be very clear to you how this blogging game really works.
It’s not just about setting up a blog and thinking that it’s set and you’re going to get traffic, you’re going to be rich and famous. There’s a lot more to it. There are other factors to this whole system, this whole ecosystem, that you need to think about as a blogger.
Without further ado, I’m going to jump straight into it and show you the system. I’m going to go through my handy iPad screen here and show you the screen. I’ll share with you how this system works.
The Secret To Blogging Success
Target Market
The first thing is to figure out your Target Market. Absolutely critical! You’ve got to get the right target market; when you select the wrong target market, you could spend a lot of time and a lot of money on the wrong thing. And you discover that it’s too late and you wasted a lot of time.
It’s critical that you pick the right target. There are secrets to selecting that and I’ll share with you in a second how to do that and where you can find more information on it.
Content Hub
The next thing is to setup your Content Hub. This is really just your blog. This is your blog. I’ve decided to use video blog for my blog, but you can just have normal text-based blog as well, or an image-based blog, or a combination of all three, or a combination of just two of them. That’s the second thing.
Traffic
The third thing is to start generating Traffic. Traffic from your target audience to your blog. This is why your target audience is so important. You’ve got to get the right audience because once you know what that audience is, you know specifically where to go for the right kind of traffic.
You can’t just get any kind of traffic for your blog. You need to get the right kind of traffic of targeted users. Very very important! That’s the third thing. Of course, you can get free traffic, borrowed traffic and paid traffic. Those are the three main options.
Monetize
The next thing is to Monetize. Once you’ve got your target market sorted, you’ve got your blog, you’ve got traffic there, what do you want to do with that traffic? Obviously, they come to your blog and read your post and watch your videos or whatever it is. But it makes sense if you’re in this for a profit, to monetize it.
There are many different things you can do. You can sell products, you can sell services, you can sell advertising on your site. There’s a bunch of different things that you can do. More on this later, but I have to say that once you have the traffic, you’ve got a targeted traffic from that really good niche, or target audience that you found, making sales or making money from it becomes a lot easier.
Optimize
And then of course, there’s this whole thing of optimizing it. So you can use things like Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, search engine optimization (SEO) and iTunes, things like that, to really drive the traffic and exposure home to your blog.
That’s the system. As you can see, it’s not complicated. There are just five things. There’s not much to it. As you can see also, it’s not just about a blog or creating content, there are other things that you need to think about as well to make it successful.
I have just really touched on this topics. There’s obviously a lot more information to this. What I’d like you to do if you want to find more information and see the bigger picture, we are relaunching Become A Blogger program. When I say “we”, I mean Yaro Starak, who was my original launch partner with Become A Blogger. We’ve recently teamed up with Leslie Samuel, from the States, who has generously helped us to recreate all the content.
This whole thing, the Become A Blogger program has been totally redone and I’d love for you to go and check it out. If you’re interested at all in setting up your own blog. Obviously, this is not for everybody. This is more for people who haven’t got a blog and interested in setting up a blog for the first time. Or if you’ve set one up but you haven’t really been able to get success from it, I think this is something that can really be useful.
There is an optin process required. You’ve got to optin to get access to some free videos. We have three or four different training videos that you can get access to.
Obviously, there will be some sort of a product at the end of it that will launch. But for now, get access to the free stuff. There are some really good training in there.
In fact, the first video is sort of just setting the scene going through some of the system stuff. The second video a really amazing interview that Leslie had with one of our followers, who is now listed as one of the top 1% of sites in the world. Google has told this guy that his site is one of the top 1% in the world.
There’s going to be an interview on that coming up very very soon that you’ll get access to when you sign up for this. It’s free. Get access to that for free and learn from this guy. This guy makes, if not seven figures, pretty close to seven figures. Go and watch the interview to find out.
There are some more training, a bit more step by step on how to setup your blog and more of the nitty gritty stuff. If you’re interested at all, there’s be a link below this video that will take you there. There’s a specific link, you’ve got to follow it to get access to this specific three or four videos. Once you’ve opted in, you’ll be able to watch those videos as they become available.
That’s all I wanted to say. The secret for me, once again, just to summarize this, is really to have this ecosystem look at blogging. It’s not just your blog, it’s all these other things. There’s getting the right tagged audience, setting up your blog in the right way, getting the right kind of traffic, monetizing it properly and optimizing it with all these social media tools.
Go ahead and check it out. There’s a ton more information that I love for you to get access to.
