If You’re Struggling to Make Money Blogging, Read This:
It’s not as hard as you think and you’re probably overcomplicating things.
I started and quit a bunch of WordPress blogs over the years.
More than I care to remember.
For some reason, I could never make them work.
The only successful WordPress blog I ever managed was focused around a very targeted keyword in the relationship niche with the word “coaching” stuffed in the URL.
That business made me a ton of money.
But only from the coaching aspect.
Sales from a few ebooks I had written were paltry.
And the occasional affiliate link I pasted amongst the content never generated much more than the price of a Starbucks coffee.
No matter how hard I tried, I don’t think I ever cracked 100 visitors per month.
Eventually, I stopped posting articles completely and relied on word-of-mouth referrals and email marketing to attract clients.
The truth is I sucked at SEO.
And if I’m being honest, I still suck at SEO.
I don’t care about it.
