How To Start A Blog And Sell It For $20,000 In Just 8 Months

 A couple of days ago, I mentioned an article Ramsay over at Blog Tyrant posted recently about things to consider when selling a blog (Would You Sell Your Blog For $500,000?). While I was looking around at other posts on his site, I came across a very interesting post about a blog he built and sold for $20,000, all in the span of 8 months.

The post is literally a blueprint for how to start a blog, build it up and create something of value, then sell it.

I’ll be the first to tell you that this is not a push button simple process. It requires some determination, hard work, and probably a bit of trial and error depending on the niche you’re going after. Your mileage may also vary based on your niche and skills. Some people will do better. Others worse.

What’s important, though, is seeing the process laid out. In a day of entire blogging courses, it’s nice to see a guide presented in a succinct manner that includes all the major steps.

Take a look at the post here: How I Sold a Blog for $20,000 in 8 Months.

One note…TAKE ACTION! Even if you’re not sure of what you’re doing, just do something. Learn from the process, correct course, and continue on. That’s literally the ONLY way you’re going to learn and get better.
