First I downloaded the free Authority Black Book. It is 67 pages of pure content with all the resources to get traffic to blogs.

Then I attended Sam Clark and Jack Humphrey’s ‘16 Steps to Success’ free webinar training. There I learned everything about building a business online right from researching and choosing the niche to building and promoting a blog to monetizing it.

This free course ran for 8 weeks, twice a week, and each session was nearly two hours followed by questions through chat and detailed clarifications. Thousands of dollars worth course was given away completely free with no strings attached.

Sam Clark distributed a number of bonuses specifically related to what was being discussed throughout the program.

After going through all this I have joined ‘Authority Site Center’.

You can download Authority Black Book for free. If you missed the free webinar training you can get the recorded version at ASC.

I am going through a 60-day marketing plan and it is so thorough and systematic that I cannot fail to get traffic to my blog. This 60-day plan is again taught through webinars follyowed by chat.

There are about 200 + videos at ASC and more are being added. If you are new to WordPress you can watch videos and learn how to post content, how to use all the plugins and so on. The blog will be created for you with a unique designed for you. You get help at every stage through videos, webinars, help desk, forum and other members.

You get software to keep your blog updated with fresh content (Utility Poster), you get software for trackback (Track Boost), you get special plugins for generating RSS feeds of various types, and so on. More software will be added in future and these are all free for the members.

I know a lot about WordPress blogs, I have created and maintained a number of them as well as created blogs for others too. I have been earning online for about three years.

To add to this I got a comprehensive free webinar training in ‘16 Steps to Success’. Though it was a free course it was as intensive as any course that might cost a thousand dollars.

After all this I have joined ASC as a paid member. Is it really worth it?

I would say ‘Ye’s.

‘The web changes faster than the fastest learners. More than what you know will work on the web in 2008, you need to know what might work in 2010 and prepare yourself right now.

Inside the ‘Authority Site Center’ there is a team of people who are constantly putting in an effort to look beyond the present. The ASC members themselves are a great team - rare people who have committed themselves to put in so much hard work to create authority blogs. They are very active in the forum. The forum buzzes with 10,000 posts.
