Secrets to Making a Six Figure Income from Blogging

One of my all time favorite bloggers on the Internet today is Darren Rowse of Pro Blogger. Darren, from Australia, has many blogs with various topics and had begun making 6 figures while doing it. Now, I am sure a lot of you know who Darren is, but for those who don’t, should spend some time reading his material. He is honest and at the same time inspiring. You soon learn it’s possible to make money from writing blogs, but like anything, it takes time and dedication… and lot’s of hard work.

Darren is also one of the founders of the largest blog networks on the Internet today… b5media.

Well, Darren a while back, unleashed his secrets onto the average blogger in a book called ProBlogger: Secrets for Blogging Your Way to a Six-Figure Income… Co-Authored by Chris Garrett.

For those of you out there who are looking to monetize your blog may want to swing by Amazon and pick this up… Right now in paperback you can pick it up for only $16 or so.

Blogging and Podcasting Book

Ted Demopoulos, consultant, author, and blogger for Blogging for Business just sent me a copy of his new book called What No One Ever Tells You About…. Blogging And Podcasting. I got a chance to sit down for a little bit and read through it.

The way the book is laid out is it draws in information and advice Ted has collected from several bloggers, including myself when I was blogging over at why my blog stinks. One of the reasons I am not blogging there anymore is the blog was hacked into and some of the issues I ignored on a technical level had long term effects. But I don’t think it was the hacking attempt, as it was only an attempt, because I was able to salvage my content. But during that time I was blogging about parenting, as I am a dad of soon to be 5 kids, and keeping my business blogs regarding hunting and fishing kept up. So I let that site slide for now.

This site is my new venture to include some of the topics I have been eager to blog about. It will include content that appeared at Why My Blog Stinks, but maybe not necessarily from a stinky standpoint. For those who visited my blog in the past know what I am talking about.

But back to Ted. In his book I have written on Chapter 47, five mistakes I feel are common amongst bloggers. You will have to order the book to read exactly what I wrote but the top 5 mistakes I cover are:

1) Not engaging in conversations
2) Fear of Linking
3) Being long-winded
4) Not posting regularly and consistently
5) Not having a voice

I will touch on each of these in the next week (unless our new baby is born before then) and discuss more about these in detail.
