Gone are the days when you could start a blog and talk about your life and make money from it. Even if you didn’t even try, you still could make some money because blogging was so new.

Nowadays if you’re going to start a blog and want to get seen online plus build your audience and make money, you will have to do something different.

To market and promote your blog successfully it takes time and you can’t do everything yourself. From writing blog posts, finding pictures, uploading content, networking with other bloggers, responding to comments and emails, tweaking your blog design, where do we find time to do this?

Luckily for you it’s possible to access the help of a virtual assistant whom you could outsource a lot of the administrative blogging tasks and help you contact other bloggers that people don’t see behind the scenes. [Read more...]

The Blog Planning Workshop is now available for purchase! Yes. finally! A blogging course from Hector =)

The reason I created this program was because I wanted you to have access to a complete step-by-step course that showed you how to take your idea and turn it into a loyal blogging audience.

I won’t get into all of the details of what’s inside the course, but the modules include content creation, promotional strategies and how to start getting paid from your blogging efforts.

It’s a pretty awesome and comprehensive course, but of course I’m bias.. I put a lot of time, and brain power into this program, so I definitely think it deserve a look.

To learn more about this course, visit my Courses page or click here. I’d like to see you inside as a member.

Take care.. talk soon

I’ve gotten this question quite a bit in the past few months. “Hector, I’ve been blogging for a while now, but I can’t seem to get any sales for any of the products I’ve promoted.. what can I do?”

That’s a great question, but one I can’t answer without knowing a lot more about the main blog topic, the purpose of the site, and the business idea behind it.

What I can do, however, is tell you why I believe most blogs don’t make any money at all and what to focus on to turn your situation around.

I can say, from experience, that if you focus on fixing these 5 things, you may start to see income coming from your blogging efforts. Ignoring these will get you more of the same results you’re getting now; and I’m sure you don’t want that. [Read more...]
