Niche Blogger Review Continues--I'm Ranking in Google!

Image via CrunchBaseWell today I'm on Day 57 of the Niche Blogger membership course. With a lot of hard work and a little sweat, I'm finally beginning to rank on Google for keywords related to my first blog. I'm also ranking for some "accidental" keywords I hadn't even planned for!

No, I'm not ranking on the first page yet (but I'm pretty close for a couple of keywords). Keep in mind that Amy's course is not about getting on the first page of Google in less than 24 hours (and then getting sandboxed the next day). It's about building a high-quality blog that eventually will rank high on Google and stay there for months to come (while you work on another blog to build long-term passive income).

If you read some of my earlier posts, you know that I said that the pace was a little slow for those with IM experience. Well--things are really starting to pick up now near the end of Month Two! Since I work full-time I haven't been able to implement Amy's marketing and link building plan 100%. But with the progress I've made so far--I have little doubt that I'll be making some income soon.

The great thing about the Niche Blogger is that you can build your blog at your own pace. It's taken me a while to get this first one started, but each blog I build will get easier and easier.

Niche Blogger Review--Month Two

I know I haven't posted to this blog in a while, but the truth is, I've been busy learning Amy's Niche Blogging system. This girl has me working really hard but I know eventually all this hard work is going to pay off!

What I really love about this membership is that everything is completely hands on. A lot of ebooks I've read are full of ideas and theories but no action plans. This course is 100% full of "do this and do that."

Amy has explained that her "Top 20" blogs make her a passive income of $5000/month. All together she has put 40 blogs on the Internet. She says that not all her blogs are successful. Luckily Amy explains all her successes and failures throughout the course so even though it took her more than a year to build her empire, someone following her system exactly could do it in less time.

Yes, this takes work. But the beauty of The Niche Blogger, is that once the work is done, you can move onto another blog. This is passive income. It may all sound strange to you, but it will all make sense once you take a peek inside the Niche Blogger. This is not complicated at all. In fact, I was surprised to learn how simple it really is.

In Month Two, we get down to the nitty-gritty of monetizing and marketing our blogs. No, I haven't made any money yet. I knew it would take a while to learn the blueprint (I signed up for the monthly membership). That's why when I wrote my goals I aimed to be making $10/month by the end of November, not October. ;-)

I work full time--so I'm not moving forward as quickly as others in the course (there are already success stories being posted in the forum). But you can follow the blueprint at your own pace. Some people are working on several blogs at one time, but I prefer to do one blog at a time.

I know October is going to be a busy month for me, but I haven't gotten tired of this yet. Which is really saying a lot for what Amy is teaching. Any other report, ebook, or membership and by now I'd already be scanning the WSO of the Warrior Forum looking for something new.

In fact, since I signed up for Amy's Niche Blogging membership, I haven't visited the WSO forum once. I think that's saying a lot. :-)

If you have any questions about the Niche Blogger I'd be happy to answer them. Just post them in the comments section below.

The Niche Blogger Review--What to Expect

If you consider yourself an "experienced" internet marketer you might consider the pace of The Niche Blogger to be a little slow. Of course, depending on when you sign-up, you'll probably be able to go through the content faster than if you signed up at the beginning.

Today is Day 15--and we're now learning how to update and change our Wordpress theme based on Amy's recommendations. I personally like the slow pace, because it allows me to get back to basics and to look at blogging from a fresh prespective. I also now know how to set things up properly in the Wordpress admin panel.

Everyday Amy updates the blog with two "assignments" for you to complete. You can take as much time as you want and move onto the next day only when you're ready.

To keep things fair for both old and new members, Amy is going to build a new blog for each month of membership. After you're a member for 30 days, you'll receive a link to the "Month 2 Blog". That way--people who sign-up three or four months from now will only have access to the first month's of content--making it fair for those of us who have been paying from the beginning.

Amy explains it this way:

I know what you are probably thinking. I signed up at the beginning and if she keeps adding to the blog someone who signs up 6 months from now will have access to all the back content their first month. That is not fair.Well, you are totally right. I am going to set it up so the main blog only has the first month's content. I will be making a different blog on this domain in a special location for each month. As you hit month 2 you will get an email with the location of the month 2 blog and so on. So when someone joins they will have month 1 while you have the month you are on. Does that make sense? I want to make it fair.

I think this should work out just fine. As you can see, Amy is a top-notch professional. If you're even slightly on the fence about trying this out, post your questions below. I know Amy is planning on raising the price soon (really!) so now is the time to join.

My Goal as a Niche Blogger

My goal as a Niche Blogger is to make $5000/month. According to Amy, each blog you create using her system will generate a passive income of $5/day. So--that means each blog will earn you $150 every month.

To reach my goal of $5000/month, I'll need to create at least 35 blogs. That doesn't seem too bad. From what I've seen from Amy's course so far--it shouldn't be hard to create these blogs once you get the system down.

If I can create at least two blogs every month, I'll achieve my goal of $5000/month by March 2010. Of course, if I put in a little extra work every month it could happen sooner than that!

Here's how I figured it out:

November 2008 - $10 a day = $300 month / $3,600 year
December 2008 - $20 a day = $600 month / $7,200 year
January 2009- $30 a day = $900 month / $10,800 year
February 2009 - $40 a day = $1,200 month / $14,400 year
March 2009 - $50 a day = $1,500 month / $18,000 year
April 2009 - $60 a day = $1,800 month / $21,600 year
May 2009 - $70 a day = $2,100 month / $25,200 year
June 2009 - $80 a day = $2,400 month / $28,800 year
July 2009 - $90 a day = $2,700 month / $32,400 year
August 2009 - $100 a day = $3,000 month / $36,000 year
September 2009 - $110 a day = $3,300 month / $39,600 year
October 2009 - $120 a day = $3,600 month / $43,200 year
November 2009 - $130 a day = $3,900 month / $46,800 year
December 2009 - $140 a day = $4,200 month / $50,400 year
January 2010 - $150 a day = $4,500 month / $54,000 year
February 2010 - $160 a day = $4,800 month / $57,600 year
March 2010 - $170 a day = $5,100 month / $61,200 year
April 2010 - $180 a day = $5,400 month / $64,800 year
May 2010 - $190 a day = $5,700 month / $68,400 year
June 2010 - $200 a day = $6,000 month / $72,000 year

According to Amy, it takes about two months for your blog to get fully indexed in the major 3 search engines--so I've decided to be a little conservative when I say I'll be making my first dollars by the end November, but it could be sooner than that. We'll just have to wait and see. :)

This system isn't a secret--but you'll have to join Amy's membership site to learn how to do it. Join through my affiliate link, and I'll make you a custom header graphic for your very first blog! I normally charge between $17 and $27 for my graphics--so this is a pretty sweet deal!

Niche Blogger Review--Who is Amy Bass and What Does She Know About Blogging?

Who is Amy Bass?

Amy Bass is a young stay-at-home with four kids. Her husband used to be employed by the United States Army but lost his job because of severe epilepsy.

In May 2007, Amy made a goal to pay off their $72,900 debt by April 2009 using only her skills as an internet marketer. Amy first began using programs like CashCrate, Associated Content, and ReadersPaid. Eventually she discovered blogging.

She currently has paid off $45,900. She has $27,000 left to pay off before April, and the way things are going for her--it looks she'll achieve her goal ahead of schedule!

Amy's Blogging Blueprint

Through trial and error--Amy has put together a blogging blueprint that she claims generates $5/day for each blog she creates. Amy claims that once the blog is created, everything runs on autopilot.

She says, "I have blogs I haven't touched in almost a year that still make me $10 - $12 a day!"

Another thing I find amazing is that Amy claims to only write and submit 2 articles for each blog she creates!

Amy created her membership site, The Niche Blogger, to teach people just like you and me how to make money online using simple niche blogs. In fact, this program is exactly what she gave her computer illiterate mom to follow--so you can be sure she hasn't left anything out.

The one thing I like about this program is that you create useful blogs that people actually want to read and visit! I hate the thought of filling cyperspace with more junk. I also don't like the thought of creating blogs, articles, and Squidoo pages just to promote my affiliate links. Of course, we all want to make money--but would you be willing to share these techniques with your friends and family? What about your mother?

For the first time in a long time, I'm excited and proud to be an internet marketer. I can't wait to get started!
