I WANT IN! SECURE MY SPOT NOW!

LET'S GET REAL, SHALL WE?

Starting a brand new blog or online business can feel pretty intimidating.

Maybe you're struggling to know what to do in what order. Maybe you feel like you're too late to the party, or you're worried that all the opportunities are already gone. Maybe you're confused about how blogs actually make money, or how people will actually find your website, or how to create a blog that actually stands out. Maybe you're just trying to understand the tech. Or maybe your need for perfection actually has you feeling paralyzed and afraid to get started.

But what if there was a way to get all those questions answered before you dive all the way in?

The reality is that having a clear, proven path to follow in your business—along with an experienced guide to lead you—is a game-changer, one that will not only give you the clarity and confidence to know you're moving in the right direction but lead you to more profit and predictability in less time than you ever thought possible.

That's what our Blog Basics Mini Course is designed to do.

Over the course of five powerful lessons, you'll get all your biggest blogging questions answered, not with platitudes, but with real talk. By the end of the training, you'll not only understand exactly what steps you'll need to take to get started, you'll also know how to choose the right niche and how to create the kind of content that gets noticed and shared. Plus, we'll explain things like where traffic comes from and how blogs actually make money.

It's everything you never realized you need to know before you begin.

Not only that, at just $49, it's the smallest, most low-risk possible investment you can make in yourself and still have the expectation of results.

GET STARTED WITH BLOG BASICS NOW

HEY THERE, I'M RUTH!

And I really want to be your Fairy Blog Mama.

Since launching my first blog, Living Well Spending Less, in 2010, my business has grown into a multi-million dollar company. I’ve become the New York Times bestselling author of 7 books, launched a top-rated podcast, and even given a TED talk.

But it didn’t start out that way!

At first, I struggled hard to figure it all out. There were SO many times I felt like quitting, and I can’t even tell you how often I secretly wished for some magical fairy blog-mama to share all her secrets of success. Sadly, she never appeared, so I swore to myself that if I ever did figure out the secret to blogging, I’d be that fairy blog-mama to someone else!

And that’s exactly what this training series is all about. 

No, it’s not a magic wand, but it IS probably the next best thing: clear, direct, and honest answers to your biggest blogging questions so that you can decide, beyond a shadow of a doubt, whether or not blogging is right for you.

WHAT IF I ALREADY HAVE A BLOG? WILL THIS BE TOO BASIC FOR ME?

The short answer? Anyone who's ever thought about starting a blog or online business.

It is designed to take the mystery out of starting a profitable and predictable online business, and to answer your biggest questions about blogging, while also showing you the exact path you'll need to follow, from a complete beginner to 6 or 7 figures and beyond.

It’s for anyone who wants to have an online business, but is not interested in being an “influencer.” It’s for any blogger who has been scared to sell, or frustrated that their sales efforts don’t seem to be working, or for any online business owner who needs help increasing their conversions.

And so, whether you’re an ambitious beginner looking to get started as quickly as possible or an intermediate level blogger looking to break through a plateau and start making real money online, the Blog Basics Mini Course will provide the instruction, and encouragement you need to create the foundation for a profitable and predictable online business. 


I'M NOT MAKING ANY MONEY YET. WILL THIS MINI COURSE HELP?

Absolutely.

The Blog Basics Mini Course will answer the biggest questions you have about starting a successful blog or online business, including HOW blogs actually make money.

That said, building an online business takes time. This is not a get-rich-quick scheme, nor will it lead to overnight success. If you are just starting out, you can expect to be following the plan we lay out for at least 6-9 months before you start earning any income.

On the other hand, if you have already built a foundation but have struggled with monetization or conversions in the past, this challenge will finally help you break down that mental block and get you earning real money from your online platform, even if you have a very small audience
