What is The Blog Marketing Academy?

 

Let’s be real… monetizing a blog with banner ads is pretty freakin’ hard and grossly inefficient. With an industry average CPM (cost per thousand displays) of $2.80 and publisher revenue splits around 70%, the average you might expect is $1.96 per 1000 page views.

At that rate, you’d have to drive close to 10,000 page views just to earn enough to buy a standard meal in a halfway decent restaurant.

Clearly, if you want to make money with your blog, banner ads aren’t the way to do it. However, blogs are one of the most powerful online marketing mediums there is today (when used properly). When coupled with an actual business, the revenue flows.

The Blog Marketing Academy is an online business training library for blog owners. Unlike the cute, but unworkable advice of many “blogging gurus”, The Academy focuses on building and growing REAL revenue streams backed by your blog.

It could be a coaching business, an online course business, a monthly membership site… even an e-commerce or offline business. Together, we’ll build up your lead flow and your conversion funnels. And we’ll optimize your blog to turn it into a marketing machine that doesn’t feel like a useless waste of your time.
