Giveaway: “How I Make Money Blogging.”

https://www.e-junkie.com/ecom/gb.php?cl=132158&c=ib&aff=219310We’re heading toward September and you know what that means: Christmas shopping!

Or at least the stores seem to think so, given how early they sneak the red-and-green into the inventory. Can’t we have Halloween first?

Some of us shop year-round and then have to fill in with only a few items come the Black Friday madness.  Some realize around mid-December that they haven’t even started.

It all takes money — and one way to earn money is through blogging. Stop laughing. Some people actually do bring in a little extra cash, or a lot. Crystal Stemberger is one of those people. I’m giving away a copy of her e-book, “How I Make Money Blogging: The Beginner’s Guide to Building a Money-Making Blog,” in case you want to be one of those people, too. (There’s a discount code for those who want to buy the book outright; see below.)

Admittedly Crystal is a total workhorse: She has a handful of sites and wears other hats as well (consultant, ad sales goddess, mentor, writer-for-hire). Not everybody wants to work that hard. But if you’re interested in starting your own site, or if you’ve got a site that you want to “monetize” (ugh, hideous neologism), this book can help you bring in what the kids call an “alternative income stream.”

Here’s what I wrote about the book previously:

“Crystal covers the nuts-and-bolts info (domains, how to choose a format) as well as the more esoteric stuff like page rankings and search engine optimization plug-ins. I’m not particularly tech-savvy so this book was a great help to me. It showed me a bunch of things I should have been doing and explained them in language I could understand.”

If you’re not the lucky winner but still want the book, I hope you’ll consider purchasing it by clicking on the link above. If you do, my daughter will get a small finder’s fee for the sale. To sweeten the deal, use the code thankyou10 to get a $10 discount.

To enter:

If you do any (or all!) of these things, please leave separate, additional comments to get credit for each entry.

The deadline is 7 p.m. PDT Tuesday, Aug. 20. If I don’t hear back from the winners by 7 p.m. PDT Wedesday, Aug. 21, I’ll pull another name.

  3. Hi Donna

    This book looks like a fabulous resource. I have been thinking of starting a blog now for awhile.

    By the way I was in Costco yesterday and they’re already selling Halloween costumes for children! They were beside the snow suits. For a moment I thought the summer had passed me by and I was walking around in October or November. Thankfully I woke up and remembered it was still August! Phew.
