I bought the $365K Blog Traffic Formula less than 48 hours ago. As the subheader states, it’s all about “how to attract 365,000 red-hot visitors to your blog like bees to honey – without AdWords…”

There are two reasons why I bought the $365K Blog Traffic Formula.

1. It was written and published by MaxBlogPress, the same people that created MBP Ninja Affiliate and other awesome tools for WordPress.

2. The people interviewed in this ebook. They are some of the really successful bloggers, and according to the sales page, they are telling their stories about how they became successful, and what you should do in order to get massive traffic (and become successful as well…)

The price for this ebook is ok, not cheap and not too expensive. When you pay $37 (I paid $27 for the launch discount), you expect that you’ll get something of really good quality. Think about what kind of books you can buy at Barnes and Nobles for $37. I also expect that what I get my hands on is information I can’t get anywhere else.

Before I continue, let me give you a brief overview of the people interviewd:

1. Chris Garrett
2. Daniel Scocco
3. Darren Rowse
4. Jack Humphrey
5. Jason Katzenback
6. Matt Garrett
7. Yaro Starak

The interviews with these guys are what The $365k Blog Traffic Formula is all about, nothing more and nothing less. That’s what you get. Well, almost. If you act fast (order within the next minutes), you also get two bonus interviews with:

1. J.D. Roth
2. Tom Kuhlmann

And of course, when you buy this, you’ll get presented with a one-time-offer. If you buy that one, you’ll get access to even more interviews. I didn’t buy it, maybe I should, but at the moment I don’t have much time to read due to my vacation starting in a few days (and that’s when I’ll be 100% with my family for 5 weeks).

The $365 Blog Traffic Formula is an ebook of 70 pages with all interviews. At first it looked a little short, and the interviews looked like a few brief sentences from each of the blog traffic wizards. But when I started to read I soon realized that it was close to perfect. That’s because it was straight to the point, it was only the sentences you needed in order to understand their messages.

The ebook is actually a lot like Blogging to the Bank, but this time it’s genuine interviews with some of the most successful people in the business, and they are telling us what works. For instance, they are answering questions like:

“What’s your most effective traffic generation strategy which works every time for you and gives the best return in terms of traffic regarding to your time spent?”

“Most bloggers like to get passive traffic… What are the one time actions we can do which will keep on bringing traffic without any effort after that?”

“Let’s say you lose your name, contacts and everything. You have to start from scratch as a “nobody”. What will you do then for the next 30 days so that your blog will start getting 1000 unique visitors each and every day?”

Should you buy The $365K Blog Traffic Formula?

Yes, if you’re looking to gain massive traffic by blogging, you should buy it. On the other hand, if you’ve read Blogging to the Bank, or you are a member of Blog Mastermind or Become a Blogger Pro, then you’ll have access to most of the information already. But to me, it’s always something different to read interviews of really successful people, I am learning way more from that than any ecourse.

I have been reading ProBlogger, the well-known blog of Darren Rowse for a long time. I believe it’s one of the first blogs I ever subscribed to. The reason I subscribed to ProBlogger was because it was, and probably still is, the most important blog when it comes to “how to blog”.

You can argue that it’s really a blog about how to make money blogging. But that’s not the reason why I subscribed, and the reason why I am still reading Darren’s posts on a daily basis. They are detailed, easy to read, and up to date when it comes to how you should be blogging and how you should be promoting your blog.

Since I have stayed with Darren Rowse for so long, I was eager to buy his ProBlogger book. I expected it to be just as amazing as his blog. He is a professional blogger, earning a six-figure income from blogging, therefore, I expected him to deliver fairly everything I needed to know about blogging in this book.

I should probably mention, before I continue, that Darren Rowse is not the only author behind this book. Chris Garrett, a well-known Internet marketer and professional blogger, is the co-author. I didn’t know much about Chris before reading this book, other than that I have read a few of his guest posts at CopyBlogger and at ProBlogger.

The interesting aspect of this book is that it presents a great overview of how you should start your blogging career, how you should be setting up your blog, how you should be writing, earning strategies, blog promotion and a lot more.

I like the fact that the book can be read by complete newbies, as well as fairly professional bloggers. I think that the introduction was just perfect. It started with Darren’s story of blogging, about how he worked three jobs simultaneously, studied part-time and blogged on the side. It makes you think, and it makes it a good story.

I don’t think that the book is very creative or innovative. It’s more like a 220 page tutorial, including detailed examples, of well-known “secrets” about what works for professional bloggers, and what you should be doing in order to become one.

The books is very inspirational. It’s easy to relate to Darren’s story, and a life as a professional blogger. It feels like it’s fairly easy to follow every single lesson given, and therefore, it seems rather easy to earn money from blogging. The inspirational and authoritative part is excellent.

The chapter I enjoyed the most, was the chapter dedicated to the secrets of successful blogs. I enjoyed the lessons why blogs like CopyBlogger, ProBlogger, TechCrunch, Scobleizer, and the Four-Hour Work Week are successful.

From reading ProBlogger, I think a successful blog, is about being remarkable and writing stories that people find useful.
