Make Money Travel BlogHave you ever dreamed of being your own boss? Or running an online website that brings in money while you lay on the beach or play golf? Wouldn’t it be great if your office was anywhere you wanted it to be?

I’ve been living off this website full time since the end of 2008. I never intended to make money with this travel blog. I didn’t even think it was possible to make money with a website. Let alone a full time income. I was like so many people thinking that the only way to make money online was to either be unscrupulous and a cheat or to get really like and invent something like Facebook.

But you can make money online so instead of spending your time commuting to work, stuck in traffic, you can spend it doing whatever it is you want.

Why Most People Fail to Make it Online

If you’re like most people, you dream of having an online business where money just comes in by doing nothing. It sounds wonderful, right? Everyday millions of people try to do exactly that and 99.9% of them fail. Why? They fail for two reasons:

1. They don’t stick it out long enough to make money. This is not a get rich quick scheme.

2. They don’t get good advice. There’s so much bad advice on the internet that unless you are learning from a person – not some marketing product – chances are you won’t make it. To succeed, you need a teacher.

Most people go online, visit Google, and search for information on how to make money. They find a lot of information on thousands of sites trying to teach them the next get rich quick, make money online scheme. They fail victim to these lies and fail. So they keep searching. Fail again, get overwhelmed and give up.

Instead of that being you, you can have someone who has spent close to four years doing this explain everything to you, show you how it’s done and personally coach you along the way. In order to succeed at this, you need a teacher.

“Matt’s book changed my life. I spent the past 2 years doing “research” on how to make money online without the courage to actually do it. And then I came across Matt’s blog, downloaded his book and read Matt’s straight forward, step by step approach to making money online and the fear vanished, the questions were answered and now the games have begun. It has only been a few weeks since I bought the book and I have already signed up to ALL of the marketing opportunities he suggested, took out more domains and have began implementing his strategies and as of today began getting the first feedback, RSS feed signups and comments on my Blogs. Matt did for me in 2 weeks what 2 years of research could not do!” – Melanie, http://www.cruisewire.net

Why I Know My Methods Will Make You a Success

When I came back from traveling in 2008, I realized I didn’t want to go back to cubicle nation. I couldn’t be stuck in that sort of rigid environment anymore. I wanted to become a travel writer – you know, work Lonely Planet and write guidebooks. I started this website as an online resume but by the end of the year, through hard work, SEO, and learning from the best, I was making a comfortable living. I didn’t need to become a guidebook writer. I had this.

Now, I make on average $8,000 USD per month from this website through Google Ads, books, direct ad sales, and affiliate purchases. And, now, I want to help you do the same. There is plenty of space on the Internet for the both of us. And i know this stuff works because I every thing I tell you to do, I do myself. This book will give you the same strategies that have made me successful so you can become your own boss, make money with your blog, and travel the world. My blogging advice and expertise has been featured in:

This book will bring you success – guaranteed

Break through the clutter of the web and let your story be heard
With so many travel blogs out there, it can be hard to know where to start or break through the clutter. With this book and my help, I’ll help you pick an area of expertise so you can rise to the top and break through the crowd and get a large and global following.

Learn how to make money ANYWHERE
The core of this book teaches you how to make money with newsletters, book deals, affiliate marketing, creating courses or books, sponsorships, direct advertising, Google Adsense, and more from anywhere you want in the world. I spend my days on the beach doing what I want by using the strategies outlined here. You’ll develop a stream of income that allows you to live the life you want, on terms you want, from anywhere in the world.

Get tens of thousands of visitors each month by learning the best practices in audience building
You set up a blog, you write a post, and the traffic comes right? Wrong. It takes a lot of work to build traffic and awareness of your blog. And with so many different social networks out there, it’s easy to misuse your time. This book will show you the most time efficient strategies to put your energies so you can get thousands of readers to your blog per month through Stumble Upon, Twitter and Facebook, guest posts, and viral content.

Find out how simple Search Engine Optimization is – and outrank your peers in Google
I’m going to tell you a secret. SEO isn’t that hard. If you know a few basic principles about how search engines work and follow those principles, you can get lots of traffic. Buying this book will show you the basics of how search engines work, what you can do to rank high in them, where to get links, and what’s good SEO vs. bad SEO. I hardly spend anytime on SEO and I average 70,000 visits per month from Google. Why? Because once you do a few things, the rest falls into place which means you can spend more time on what is important – connecting with your audience and gaining readers.

Create a long term road map to help you reach your goals – and stay there
Most bloggers fail because they don’t know what they want or where they want to go. You can’t become successful if you don’t know what you want. When you buy this book, I’ll help focus your attention, create a list of goals, and help you develop a plan for monetary success. Because the most successful bloggers and business have clear goals and plans how to reach them. Those that don’t get forgotten by the fickle Internet.

Become a success no matter what your field is
My main experience is building travel websites but I’ve built websites in other niches. I’ve built music websites, bartending websites, home improvement, and pet websites. I’ve used the same tips in this book on the other websites too. The same principles that apply for travel blogging apply in every other topic. While much of this book is focused on travel, the same principles that create a successful travel blog also create a successful blog in any other niche. Promise.
