I just read Rob Benwell's ebook called Blogging to the Bank and found it intriguing enough to share with my Xomba friends. This guy earns up to $516 a day from a network of blogs. What's intriguing though is that he's not a longtime blogging guru - he's only been blogging for a few months.

He didn't learn the process he uses from anyone else. "I came across parts of this method by accident and just testing different things," he says.

In one experiment, he found he got a blog with 20 links to it to outrank an optimized website which had 1,000 links to it. Surprisingly, he uses and recommends Google's Blogger.com software - because it works - and also a no-cost keyword research tool.

To back up his claims, he shows you four of his blogs and also shows you two of his high-demand key phrases that rank highly.

Blogs rank in top 10

I checked, and yes - his blogs DO appear in the top 10 in MSN for high-demand phrases. For one phrase (using quotation marks) he's No.6 out of 774,216 pages. If you search without quotation marks, he's beating millions of pages.

What's more, he's doing this with a NEW blog. I checked the profiles of four of his blogs. They were all launched in January this year.

Rob uses AdSense and affiliate links and has much better success with affiliate links than AdSense, perhaps because of the way in which he selects affiliate products.

For his traffic, he concentrates on MSN and Yahoo.

"Some people devote 60 hours per week trying to get into Google and trying to work out their exact algorithms," he says.

As far as he's concerned, his time is much better spent creating new blogs which get found in MSN and Yahoo. If the blogs eventually get into Google, he regards that as a bonus.

In Blogging to the Bank, he describes three ethical ways to get hundreds or perhaps thousands of one-way links to your site. This is all good, solid stuff.

However, his traffic generation methods No.4 and No.5 are - to put it mildly - controversial. You probably won't want to use them. They look awfully risky to me.

I am just now starting to implement his ideas on my Going2Oahu Travel Blog and hoping for a nice boost!! If you want to read his ebook, you can get it directly from the Blogging to the Bank Website. I could live okay on $516 a day - haha - here's to better (more profitable) blogging!

Aloha ~
