I recently was contacted by a lady named Kim Skinner through a website I am a member of.

In 2007 Kim was fired from her job and had trouble finding a new one. She got on the intenet and started looking for ways that she could make money from home. She struggled for 9 months, while her husband kept them afloat.

She finally came across an article about blog flipping. She decided to give it a try when she read how the guy writing the article built and sold a blog in 24 hours. So she started doing the same thing. Her first blog took her 4 days to build because she had to teach herself how to do it. The article she read only talked about the guy doing it, not how he did it.

So flash forward to today. 2 years later Kim has refined her process and follows a specific blueprint that she came up with to build her blogs. She uses her blueprint to build her blogs and sell them for $100 or more within 3 days.

Kim learned about my website BloggingProfitsBlueprint.com and asked me to review her new book Blog Flipping Made Simple.  She sent it to me and I read through it, and all I can say is it’s a must read for anyone who wants to make some easy money.
Kim walks you through flipping a blog from start to finish.  She shows you how she researches her topics to find a blog that is sure to sell.  She tells you what plugins to use, how to install them, and how to set them up.  She tells you where to find content and extras that make your blog stand out when you put it up for sale.

She then tells you where the best spots are to list your blog for sale, and exactly how to list it.  This is where most books on flipping websites and blogs end.  Not Kims.

Kim takes you through the end of the sale, and tells you how to deliver the blog to the buyer.  She even tells you exactly how she makes recurring income each and every month from some of these blogs, after she has sold them.  This information alone is worth the price of this 65 page book!

The crazy thing is, Kim is only charging $27 right now for this ebook.  Sales hype aside, I can’t believe how low the price is for this ebook.  Similar books with less information are sold for twice that, easilly!

I haven’t contacted Kim back yet, I will be later today.  I’m going to tell Kim what I honestly think of her book, and it’s going to be a good review.  I’m also going to tell Kim that she needs to raise to raise the price of the book to at least $50.  If you follow her blueprint, you’ll make at least $100 for each blog you flip.

Using Kim’s method you will make money flipping blogs.  She guarantees it!  If you build a blog following her blueprint and it doesn’t sell on either one of two auction sites she tells you about, she will refund the price of the book.

She’ll never have to refund a purchase.  Her book lays it out so clearly and makes it so simple, my 4 year old son could do this if he could read.  Go check it out at TheBlogMaker.com/ebook/.

I’m a member of the Warrior Forum, a forum for internet marketers.  I met a guy there who I have been helping recently with some advice for his online business.

I provided him some assistance with using G-Lock to cloak his affiliate links.  He also asked me if I could make a video showing him how to adjust the size of the screen capture using CamStudio.  So this video is the result of his request.

I hope you can find it usefull as well.

I want to share a fast way to make money as fast as today.  You can tweak this and use different tactics you’ve learned , like using PPC or other traffic techniques, but what I’m about to show you is a free way to make some money fast.

I’m going to go through it step-by-step, and this can be done in as little as an hour.

Step 1 – Go to Google.com/trends

You’ll find 10 hot search trends that have been updated within the last 2 hours or so.  Below number 10 you’ll see a link to get more hot trends.  Click that and it will take you to a list of the 100 hottest search trends on Google.

Look for search terms that indicate someone is looking for something specific that you can monetize.  Here is one that is listed as I write this post, “pure digital flip ultra series f260 camcorder.”  As I write this, that list was last updated 55 minutes ago, so this something people want right now!

This is something that is hot right now, and you should jump on it fast to try and make some quick money.

Step 2 – Find an affiliate program

This could be the most time consuming step, depending on where you already have affiliate accounts setup.  Search for a program that you can to the specific product that you want to offer.  Not a landing page, or optin page or anything like that.  A page with the product on it, and a link that lets people buy it right then.

Step 3 - Setup a free blog

Go to Blogger  and setup a free blog real quick.  This won’t work with Wordpress because as of right now, they don’t allow affiliate links on free blogs.  The blog doesn’t have to be something real fancy, we’re not worried about making it pretty or setting up any SEO plugins or things like that.  Just throw it up and get it ready for content.

When you choose your blog name, choose something that has to do with your offer.  This will help with people understanding what it is you have to offer, and that you have what they want.

Step 4 – Write an article about the subject

This is pretty self explanitory.  Write an article about the product you’re promoting.  After you post your article, make sure you have your affiliate link in the article so you can direct people to the product so you get paid.

Step 5 – Social Bookmarking

Go to Digg and other social bookmarking websites and bookmark your page with them.  Visit as many of these sites as you can and get your new blog listed.

Now you’re done.  You’ve spent about an hour doing this now.  Maybe a little more, maybe a little less. 

Not all of them are going to work, but you will hit some BIG money makers from time to time. 

I don’t have any statistics to give you yet on how well this works.  I just started doinbg another variation of this technique a couple of days ago.  I got to thinking about it and was thinking about the possibility of using free blogs to do this.  Then I saw a guy I know in a forum I’m a member of and he was talking about this. 

He is successful about 40% of the time.  Since he is not spending any money to do this, 40% success is great!

Anyway, hope you found this useful.  If you’ve got any ideas to share about this, please post a comment and share with everyone.
