I guess something like this was just a matter of time and something we can expect others to implement, UNLESS it is stopped by making it public knowledge:

City Of Philadelphia Demands $300 Tax From Each Blogger

…just for the privilege to write! If this is not a direct assault on Freedom Of Speech – I don’t know what is! Yes, granted they didn’t tell bloggers to stop writing but knowing the statistics on income average bloggers generates – $300 tax a year in addition to all other taxes imposed on bloggers will effectively silence them!

Consider this…

Content is the undisputed king of the Internet. Nothing drives traffic to a web site and increases profits like a well written piece of content. However, it’s not all good news. Content is difficult to write. Even if you have a great deal of experience as a writer, not having experience as an Internet writer can make even the best technically written content relatively worthless. You spend a lot of time creating content that is valuable to your readers. Now it’s time for them to start giving back. You need to learn how to turn your content into an income stream. This assumes that you are providing an article that is valuable to your readers and well written but are not seeing profits.

Last night free webinar with Pro-Blogger and Entrepreneur Gobala Krishnan went way past its original mark and lasted for nearly 2 hours.

On multiple requests I have recorded the webinar presentation as well as Q&A session and you can now access it here. Please keep in mind that discount offer provided by Gobala is limited in nature and I will remove it shortly.

Do you have a questions on Blogging? Not quite sure how to make blogging part of your successful online presence? Perhaps you are not even sure what all this talk about blogging all together and how it can possibly fit your needs and help you…

Either way! I promise to provide answers to questions you don’t even know you have! Yep, questions will come during the Content Filled Webinar Presentation! I promise!

Just ask yourself One Question:

As a Entrepreneur What’s Your Single Most Important Question About Using WordPress Blogs For Getting Unlimited Customers and Free Targeted Visitors?

And go ask that question and  I will come up with answers based on experience and knowledge I managed to gather.

Would you like to get paid blogging about something that you love? For some reason lately if someone talks about the subject of getting paid blogging, they automatically assume that you have to sell out and write reviews for some ad networks…

While it can be done that way – in my mind it is a bad way to do it!

Granted you can get paid upfront for every post you write but the beauty of the blogs lies in opposite direction from that model! People flock to the blogs for several reasons, one of which in my opinion is unbiased information about the topic they are interested in! People look for information from trusted sources, from real people just like them!

Your goal as a blogger is to become that trusted source and deliver on expectation!

I’m not going to start digging for truth on “WHY” but the number of people interested to make money blogging grows at a fast pace and yet – most will fail, not able to even earn enough to cover hosting expenses. While the topic of blogging to make money is extremely extensive and there are many products that will teach you how, including my own (Expert WordPress), I want to write about what should be an absolute MUST have basics in order to succeed.

So dig into learning…
