They'll do anything to get you to click won't they?
You see them all the time, the links claiming to lead you to blogging Eden.
Even worse once you do click they offer no actual information other than that you need buy their product then you will know!
The truth is there is no real secret to blogging, it requires a LOT of work and dedication. Typically that's not the information people want to hear but it's true.
There is no one method or tip that is going to have your blog make the quantum leap to success.
I wish there was because I would be putting it in one of these stupid boxes and selling it myself.
I don't like to see people being scammed out of their hard-earned money and that's why I want to tell you this; DON'T BUY ANY TYPE OF PRODUCT that seems to too good to be true.
That's not to say some well-meaning people haven't spent a lot of time and put together some exceptional products, e-books and the like that genuinely are very informative. It's your money but all I'm trying to say is that there is always a free alternative. This is much of what my own site is about. Free resources.
I think many people feel that if they pay for something then it must be valuable. This is just a set-up for disappointment. When it comes to these type of over hyped "important information" products they are almost always a let down when you see it's mostly things you've already read.
So before you go joining the blogging occult and buying a fake box spend time on the great free resources that are out there and learn all that you can. *COUGH*

Hey Jeff,
Thanks for stopping by. Yah I realize it might anger a few people but the other day I clicked on my last "Find the secret" link and had enough lol.
It's all over the place, the one pill cure all easy fix solutions. None of them work, and I don't like to see people being taken.
That's one reason I enjoy your blog, you have many to the point and honest articles that help set the record straight, we need more of those posts all around!
Take it easy.
I am loving your blog - great, easy, fast, straightforward tips.
Great Article.
You're right. I feel a lot of people go in search of the magical "Holy Grail" of Blogging and give up when they find that there isn't one.
Owning a successful Blog is like losing weight; they both require hard work and exercise to truly get results!
Kind Regards
Adam Brown
