Make Three Times As Much Money with Your Blog

By Tim_Jones On October 21, 2009 Under Blogging, Conferences, Featured

Welcome back!

According to Brian Clark of CopyBlogger, the figure would actually be much more than that.  In the video, below, you’ll see Brian talk about product creation (for him — a teaching course, WordPress theme (Thesis), and now a 3rd tribe joint venture) and how it compares to standard ad sales on your blog.  For him, he estimates he makes 25 times as much money from his products as he would from straight ad sales.  Sounds like a pretty good reason to create product after product after product.

Now, that doesn’t mean you create products, willy-nilly.  As Brian points out in the video, you need to pay attention and listen to what your blog readers need and want.  Then, deliver more than your charging for the product.

I’d love to chat more on this subject, but I need to go get working on a Real Tim Jones product. :)

  • Brian is awesome...an unsung hero in my book. Now that you've posted this video, I am wondering if I should publish mine...good stuff here.
  • Definitely! Publish away! Have you seen all the ones John Chow's been putting up? I definitely need to take more video at these conferences.
  • So by making 3x as much money from my blog, I could be making $.03/day instead of $.01? :-) lol I have much to learn. Never ready CopyBlogger before but am going to now. I have a bunch of 125x125 ads on http://www.AnywhereMan.com, and they are getting a lot of clicks, but nobody ever signs up or buys after clicking (most are CommissionJunction ads) so am therefore not making much $$ on them. Time for a product!

    Thanks for posting this, Tim.
  • Thanks for the comment, Dave! You crack me up with your math. :) Copyblogger is a must-read for me -- every day.
