I bet you would love to make over $10,000 per month doing what you love and only working a few hours a day. Yaro Starak’s Blog Mastermind mentor program will teach you what you need to know to make that a reality.

I usually am very strict about sticking to the subject of graphic design on this blog, which is why I’m writing this as a bonus post (I normally publish on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays). I wanted to share a little bit about the Blog Mastermind program. Yaro Starak opened his mentor program to the public again just today.

I participated in the Blog Mastermind program the very first time Yaro offered it a year ago.

What Does the Program Entail?

Blog Mastermind is a 6-month e-course that will teach you all about blogging and how to make money from your blog. You’ll start at the beginning, with the weekly homework being to set up your blog and decide what topic you want to write on. I can’t tell you how much this encouraged me in my first few months blogging! If you already have a blog, don’t worry, there’s homework for you too! There are even 5 advanced lessons that go over social media marketing and the like.

Blog Mastermind covers everything from choosing a topic to the power of email lists, marketing your content and then leveraging your traffic. The part that I really liked is that Yaro doesn’t just tell you some vague concepts about blog marketing; he gives you five action steps after each lesson. These steps are specific tasks you complete before the next lesson; great, easy to understand and accomplish ways to implement exactly what you read about. And don’t worry, if you get a little behind, you can always save up a lesson or two to do when you have time.

Finally, there is a member forum frequented by past and current Blog Mastermind students as well as moderators like Yaro and Daniel Scocco (yes, from the Daily Tips network of blogs).

Why is Yaro Qualified to Teach?

Yaro is living what he is teaching. He’s proof that his methods work! Too many people talk about how you can make money online without having made much themselves.

Yaro makes $10,000 - $20,000 PER MONTH! And this guy has a great story, too. Watch over his shoulder as he tells you about how he makes money and the second video reveals exactly how much money Yaro makes from his blogs. He didn’t just wake up one day and get lucky; he’s spent many years making all the mistakes so you don’t have to. And he’s very approachable, too. You get the feeling that Yaro is really interested in what he personally can do to help you succeed. You just have to put a little effort into it and you’ll get there!

The Blog Mastermind mentor program is just $97/month, or if you want to pay up front, it’s $497 for the whole six months (save $85—almost a month’s worth of tuition!). Think of how much time you’ll be saving by not having to learn this by yourself the hard way, and not having to search the whole Web and read through hours of garbage to find the few golden nuggets. Your time is worth this price if you are serious about learning to turn your blog into a true business. It was well worth it in my opinion.

I’m Still Not Convinced.

Ok, fair enough; it is a significant investment of time and money after all and you want to be sure you’re making the right decision. Fortunately, Yaro has put together some pretty compelling information just for you.

First watch the free video. It’s called Conversion Blogging and it advocates using a blog and an email subscriber list to maximize your money making potential. This video is totally free, so enjoy and I’m sure you’ll learn something from it (I did!).

Next, there’s the Blog Profits Blueprint, also absolutely free. This is the basis for what you’ll learn in the Blog Mastermind program. It covers the basics of what makes a successful blog, including how to write your articles and what kinds of articles are best, and tactics for generating traffic, which equals money. It’s been recently updated and now is offered as a video presentation, too. I liked the MP3 version myself, because I could listen to it while doing other things.

Finally, if you’re still on the fence about joining the Blog Mastermind program, Yaro put together an interview with one of his former students, Alborz Fallah, now owner of a million-dollar blog (this could be you next!). Alborz’s story is absolutely astonishing. Just reading the short blog post Yaro wrote up about Alborz’s blog made me eager to watch the video. In it, Alborz reveals an overview of his step by step process for creating his amazingly successful, million-dollar blog using the lessons he learned through Blog Mastermind; he even offers you some excellent SEO advice that you can implement today.

After all these fabulous resources, I hope you’ve learned something about making your blog more effective. And how can you not be convinced that Blog Mastermind will be a worth-while investment! Just think, if all of this is being given away free, how much better is the stuff you pay for going to be?

Remember that Blog Mastermind opened at 10 AM EST on Tuesday, July 29th! While Yaro isn’t limiting the number of people who can sign up this time like he has in the past, the first 100 people to sign up will get some special bonuses!

So what are you waiting for? Sign up now!

If you have any specific questions about the program, I would be most happy to answer them in the comments!
