Blog Success Review

Jack Humphrey, Blog Success Review

You might know Jack Humphrey from his Authority Black Book, after all this is an incredible 64 page resource that takes you from recommended WordPress plugins to generating traffic and has more links then I can count to save you time.

You can pick up your own free copy of this resource here: Authority Black Book

However, that free resource assumes you know the basics of what you are doing. When in fact, the majority of the people I talk with daily DON’T know the full ins and out’s of blogging. They find it challenging to understand the process of installing a blog, optimizing their blog, finding and adding the right content, or even wonder why they have been “blogging” for months, yet haven’t earned a penny from their blog while other people have made it a full time income.

That’s why I started searching for more blog resources that I can review and recommend. I take this seriously because I have read my share of crap ebooks, special reports and expensive products over the last few years. I know that a majority of my blog readers are not highly technical (and many not remotely technical and that’s ok :) )) And if I’m going to point people to a resource I want it to do what it says it’s going to do.

Many of the products I reviewed jump from one level to another, or assume you have ftp knowledge or just leave out big chunks of information that would leave a beginner reader scratching their head and frustrated not being able to complete the task. Sound familiar?

That’s why I started to see people talking about Blog Success and I decided to look at it a bit closer. I mentioned in a previous post on How to Blog, that I really like Beginner Blogger and for some that just need the technical side of how to get started blogging that is still a great resource. For those that need more in-depth, “Step by Step” guidance on how to become a profitable blogger, then keep reading.


What is Blog Success?

This is not a simple ebook, or a special report, this is a full blown site that you login into and have access to a full site of resources and content.

What is Covered?

All the pieces for a successful blog are covered inside. When you first login you will be given a colorful section of buttons that will lead you to the area that fits your level and needs.

The best way to start is with the Welcome Video that gives you a guided tour.

You will see that Blog Success is made of several main areas:

Mindset – where you understand the philosophy for the training.

Research and Content Development – covers the steps you need to research and create your content development plan for your blog

Traffic – outline the most important steps for finding and RETAINING new visitors to your blog

Monetization – shows you every possible way of making money with your blog

Technical – one of the best parts because this takes even the most beginner blogger and shows them step by step how to make all the pieces work.

Software – download area with more training links – save you time by giving you the best resources in one place

There is also an extensive FAQ and Dictionary.

I can’t forget that there is also a support section, a forum AND a buzzzzz group. Those are amazing extras!

This is an excerpt of an article written on the site from Diane the Blog Success Membership Manager that I just LOVED because it rings so true to me.

“If you, like me, enjoying having your fingers in many pies you may find that eventually you have set up 10, 20 or even more than 30 blogs.  Every few months you may spend a week or two researching, creating, finding a theme for and getting ready this blog on your chosen niche. You may even get round to adding a few posts to it.

Eventually though you need to begin focusing on getting visitors to your blog. Your focus needs to change from blog creation and setup to blog traffic generation and marketing.  Nothing can happen in terms of earning an income from your blog if you do not have an audience.

I love blog themes, I am obsessed with photos, I love the way something looks and I actually enjoy putting a new blog together – but doing this for my own blog does not earn me any money. And the two or more days it takes to do this could be better spent on driving traffic using the 60 day plan.

If you have been in a conversation about not having time to go through the plan you may want to look at what you spend your “blog business” time on. After all once the blog is up, the sign up box has been added, your ecourse or ebook is in your auto responder and you have set up the categories you want – what else is there to do? Absolutely nothing when it comes to blog setup!  That is what is so great about running a blog as a business.

Once you have completed all those tasks there are only two things you focus on, on a consistent basis. The first is writing blog posts and the second is marketing your blog using the 60 day plan.

Your blog is up. It is ready. It doesn’t need any more tweaking! It doesn’t matter about the plugins. It doesn’t even matter what color your header is. And no you can’t start that new blog on that new industry you just heard about that is guaranteed to make you millions!”

And I think that sums up my first year of blogging in a nutshell! I spent (ok WASTED) so much time thinking I had to get everything perfect that I burned myself out because I wasn’t gaining readers, or making money.. but I could talk about the best plugins for 2 hours!!

That’s exactly what Blog Success helps you with, it’s your guide to make a great blog that you can earn money from, position yourself and be successful by giving you all the resources, training – including videos and the forum support, and all you have to do is follow the directions.

I highly recommend Blog Success for the beginner blogger or even someone that is not happy with their results so far. Yes, there is a monthly fee associated BUT after being immersed in blogging for the last couple years I KNOW that if you take action on what is included in this site, your membership price will pay for itself every month AND you will have that extra income you need.

Check it out for yourself, there is a $1.00 TRIAL To Blog Success and look for yourself. If it’s not for you, you can unsubscribe within your account profile- no calls or emails back and forth to customer support, just one click but I think you will be very happy with all you will learn and have access too.
