Eb Gargano – Profitable Blogging Jumpstart

A step by step plan to help you START and GROW a PROFITABLE blog the RIGHT WAY!

PROFITABLE BLOGGING JUMPSTART is packed full of help and advice to get your new blog off to a flying start.

Here’s a sneak peep of what’s inside…

• The planning and prep you need to do BEFORE you start your blog
• How to choose a good NAME for your blog (and the pitfalls to avoid!)
• How to choose the right HOST for your blog
• STEP BY STEP instructions for how to set up a brand new blog from scratch, including screengrabs AND a video tutorial (I literally set up a brand new blog myself in the video… and show you every step!)
• Exactly how to install and set up a new THEME on your blog (a theme is like the design template for your blog – it affects the whole look and feel of your blog, as well lots of the functionality – I’ll show you how to choose a good theme too!)
• Exactly which PLUGINS to choose and how to install and update plugins
• How to set up your CATEGORIES, MENUS and SIDEBAR
• How to write your ABOUT ME, CONTACT ME and PRIVACY POLICY pages

So many ‘start a blog’ courses stop at that point and leave you to figure out the rest for yourself, but not in my new course! After that you’ll go on to learn…

• How to CHOOSE blog post topics your readers actually want to read
• How to write the PERFECT blog post
• How to avoid writer’s block
• How to PROMOTE your blog posts on social media
• How to get search engines to LOVE you
• How to get subscribers and grow your email list

• The best way to start making MONEY as a new blogger
• How to lay down good foundations so your blog starts making really good money as soon as possible
• The 3 BIG things you need to focus on to make your blog profitable in the LONG TERM

Finally, in the last module of the course, I will give you help to plan the next 12 months (and beyond). I will show you how to keep building on the strong foundations you have laid over the previous 10 weeks and how to set things up for your blog to start making money consistently every month, as well as the 5 key ways to grow your blogging income over the coming months and years.

AND you’ll get my very special bonus – a 12 MONTH BLOG PLAN, giving you all the steps and strategies you need to take to make your blog a successful and profitable one in the months (and years!) after you’ve completed the course.
