Do You Have What It Takes To Be A Blogger?

Before taking the leap into full-time blogger, there's a simple way to find out if you're cut out to run a successful business from home. Take a blogging assessment quiz!

This particular quiz is from the genius team behind Elite Blog Academy — the course that has generated some of the most successful bloggers in the world.

Take the quiz here.

How did you do? If you scored fairly well, then it's time to start thinking of what type of blog you'd like to create. You also need to begin doing the behind-the-scenes work to set yourself up for success right from the start!

Free Resources for Bloggers

Below I've linked 10 ebooks currently available from Elite Blog Academy as limited-time FREE downloads. I've listed them in the order that I personally suggest you download and read them. (Of course, you can read them in a different order if you're a rebel, but I prefer a logical progression when I'm setting a new action plan in place!)

Ready? Here we go!

1.) The Secret Blueprint for Blogging Success (FREE)

Speaking of order, this very simple printable lays out the most straightforward roadmap to blogging success. (It's the plan I used to get our blog in order and to create my own action plan for success — after floundering about aimlessly in the beginning.)

Way too many bloggers try to skip ahead and monetize before their site is ready, and then they're frustrated when they don't see results. Do it right — from the start — and save yourself the stress.

This is a very quick read…more of an infographic…but it will give you an overview of what a proper blogging plan should look like.

2.) 2018 Blogging Trends Report (FREE)

This one goes more in-depth, but it's a very informative read! You'll learn what's trending and will know where to focus your time and energy (hint: VIDEO).

If you're a new blogger or haven't yet started a blog, this report will give you ideas on how to organize your content. Honestly, you'll gain a bit of an advantage over bloggers who have been around longer and desperately need to reorganize their sites!

Americans spend more than 10 hours PER DAY staring at a screen, and that creates a huge opportunity for you — future blogging superstar — to capture their attention and turn them into repeat visitors to your site!

Guest posting also affords you the opportunity to connect with others in your niche. That support may be invaluable as your business grows — particularly if you plan to launch a product someday.

If you're one of the lucky ones who has a post or video go viral, it can happen at a moment's notice. You need to act quickly in order to maximize profits and build lasting momentum! You could be missing out on opportunity every second you wait.

You'll be happy to know that reaching huge traffic numbers should NOT be your top priority. The Goal Setting Workbook helps bring your focus back to where it should be (not on vanity metrics). It allows you to work smarter, not harder!
