About | Indian On The Street. How I Sold a Blog for $20,000 in 8 Months. Last Update 12th June, 2015 So you want to sell a blog? In my first year of University I sold my blog for almost $20,000 after only eight months work. It was then that I realized that making money online was something I really wanted to give a shot. Since that time I have sold several other blogs for similar price tags.

In this post I am going to show you what I did in those eight months and how you can create a blog that someone might just want to pay big money for. I am going to divide this post into three sections: The pre-blogging stageBuilding a blog worth some moneySelling your blog Nothing in this post is particularly insightful or new, if you know where to look. The pre-blogging stage Photo: johnonolan This section is about all those little things you need to do before you start your professional blog. 1.

Secondly, if you don’t enjoy working, writing and building the blog you will lose interest after about a month. 2. Let me give you an example. 3. 4. 5. Photo credit: garryknight 1. 2. Blog Hosting Review: What is the Best Blog Host for You? Last Update May 3rd, 2016. So, you want to start a blog on the best blog hosting? Watch this little video first and then move on to the full blog hosting review below. It will explain everything you’ll need to get started. Quick note: I will earn a small commission if you buy a hosting package from one of my links at no extra cost to you.

Quick facts about the best blog hosting and this review’s contents: A WordPress blog hosted with BlueHost is the best option for new bloggers.Avoid free hosts and blogging platforms if you want to succeed with your new blog or make money.Installing WordPress on BlueHost only takes a few clicks. I first got started with BlueHost almost ten years ago. Click here to visit BlueHost (opens in a new tab). Now I’m sure there are going to be readers who disagree with my praise of BlueHost in favor of their own host.

The reason I am calling BlueHost the “best blog host” in this hosting review is because they have been the best for me. Why are they good? 2. 3. 4. OnTheAgilePath – Learn how to read 48 books in one month + additional 14 book summaries for free. Agile is about being fast and flexible. I love reading books about AGILE and surrounding topics (motivation, management, happiness, nature,…) but always struggled reading a lot of text and having the need to condense relevant information afterwards. I guess you can apply the 80/20 rule too, assuming that you just need 20% of a book covering 80% of the relevant information.

I started creating my own summaries for books (find a detailed list at the end of this post) and learned how useful it is for a fast recap on key facts and to memorize a reading. But it takes a considerable amount of time for summarizing (estimated at least the time reading the book, depending on the way of working with the book in the first reading session). Often I struggled to find the time to create the summaries resulting in a high loss of input (you can remember around 10% of something you read). To learn speed reading is a great way to increase your reading efficiency by keeping a high effectiveness.
