Fwd: Get Paid $500 For A Blog Post





Hi, Sad story today.

Well, a sad story for me at least.

It's about a $500+ blog post.

Yesterday, (.or. the other day) 

I talked about my $150 email/post.

Today, a lot more money is on the line.

Earlier this year I contracted a writer.

His job?

Write a comprehensive "guide" for my website.

Basically, just a very big blog post.

3,000 - 5,000 + words

I needed this to be great content.

The BEST.

It's a big keyword, and I wanted to rank.

Lots of people applied to my job posting on UpWork.com.

The #1 candidate wanted $0.10 per word.

Ouch.

I like to pay $.03-.05, I'm a cheapskate.

This was going to be pricey.

When all was said and done, the post was over 5,000+ words long.

And it cost me over ~$500+.

I'm not ashamed to admit, I cried a little. (LOL)

Fast forward six months.

Here's the sad part of the story :(

The post doesn't rank.

It doesn't make sales etc.

It doesn't even make much ad revenue.

I'm really trying to SEO it with signals, tips and tricks 

Nothin' is working.

Guess what though.

That writer got paid.

Another reason why writing is a great gig.

Writers make money by delivering a product.

Unfortunately, the same is not always true for affiliate marketing.

Sometimes you write all day and make $0.

(the flip side is that sometimes you do nothing and make bank!)

  Sometimes you write all day and make $500.  

Writing is super lucrative in the online space.

Make sure you know what your skillsets, are worth!

Oh, and you can do more than just writing content.

There are many other valuable skills like:

  • Social media management
  • VA (Virtual Assistants)
  • PPC ad creation writing & management
    • 5 alternatives to PPC:
    • YouTube Pre-Roll Ads. ...
    • Email Marketing. ...
    • Influencer Marketing. ...
    • Content Marketing. ...
    • Reputation Marketing.
  • Guest posting (link building)
  • Ghost Writing
  • On/ Off Page SEO
  • Hosting management
  • Building & Troubleshooting WordPress websites
  • Building & Coding Custom Websites in General

In other words, you don't have to be a super savvy business guru to make money online.

Some very basic online skills can be worth a lot of money.

Continuing with the theme of these email/post,

The next one is gonna be BIG.

First it was a $150 email

Then it was a $500 blog post

Tomorrow the topic will be "100,000 per /month/ year"

After that, I'll talk about my $30k day

(Yes, that thing made of 24 hours/7 days 365.46:48)

Stay tuned.

Talk soon!
