Make Money Blogging Podcast Series Summary [October]

The best time to start a blog was 15 years ago... the second-best time is right now.

If you've followed Make Time Online for any length of time, you've probably heard me shout the benefits of starting a blog before...

• It's possible to create passive income (do work once and get paid over and over again... there are loads of ways to monetise a blog)
• You can promote any business you currently have (see my chat with Riaz for more on this)
• It's possible to create a business around something you enjoy doing
• Start making money in a way that suits the life you want to live, rather than the other way around
• There's no limit to the income you can achieve (check out my chat with Jeff and Ben from Dollarsprout... they make $240k a month!)
• It's fun!

This podcast sums up the "make money blogging" podcast series. Particularly, my chats with Alex from Create and Go (Part 1, Part 2) and Paul "Scrivs" Scrivens from Dare to Conquer (Part 1, Part 2).

In case you don't know these guys, they make over $1 million a year from their blogs! And they help others learn how to make money blogging with courses like Create and Go's Launch Your Blog Biz.. #theyknowwhattheyaredoing

But to sum up the main 5 takeaways from this make money blogging podcast series:
