Get These 3 Free Bonuses to Help You Build a Better Blog – Less Than 1 Hour Left
Update: This promotion is now over. The 31DBBB workbook is still available for purchase at its normal price of $19.95 but unfortunately the bonuses have been removed. Thanks everyone for your support over the week of this promotion!
2010 is here and it is time to kick start your blog into action to ensure that the year ahead it reaches its potential with these 3 limited time bonuses.
19,782 bloggers have participated in 31 Days to Build a Better Blog and the reports that I’m getting back from them are that it’s the ideal way to get a blog fired up in the new year.
Over the next 7, 3, 1 days only if you purchase the 31 Days to Build a Better Blog workbook I’m throwing in 3 great bonuses to help you get your blog going in the new year.
Check out these limited time bonuses below….
Bonus #1: Free Report: 9 Things to Do to Get Your Blog On Track in The New Year
Written in the style of 31DBBB this report talks you through 9 things that I do at the beginning of every new year. Each step gives you a practical exercise to go away and DO to help get your blog going in the right direction. Effectively it turns the 31 day workbook into a 40 day one!
Bonus #2: Podcast with Leo Babauta from Zen Habits
Regular readers of ProBlogger will know the wisdom and insight of Leo from Zen Habits. He’s grow his blog Zen Habits from nothing to being one of the most read self help blogs in the blogosphere in just a couple of years. He’s released a book (The Power of Less) off the back of his blog and has also since launched a number of other successful blogs, profitable e-books and other products off the back of his blog.
This 55 minute podcast interview with Leo goes through his history of blogging and explores much of his philosophy behind what he does including:
- his recent decisions to turn off comments on his blog
- how he comes up with ideas to write about
- his tips for launching e-books
- his decision to remove all but one ad on his blog
- tips on growing traffic and subscribers
There’s lots of good practical advice in this podcast – I came away from it with loads of ideas and inspiration myself and am sure many will benefit from it.
Bonus #3: Podcast with Neil Patel from QuickSprout
Neil Patel has built an amazing reputation and brand for himself in the last 3-4 years. He’s been a part of building two successful blogs but has also work with some amazing companies on their social media presence (like AOL, HP, Viacom and General Motors). He’s also been a part of helping blogs like TechCrunch rise to the power blogs that they are today.
Neil also is the co-founder of CrazyEgg and KissMetrics and has some great advice in this podcast in a number of areas including:
- Personal Branding
- SEO
- Productivity
- Building Traffic to Blogs
The podcast goes for 42 minutes and is not available anywhere else but to 31DBBB buyers.
7 3 Days to Get Your New Year Bonuses
These 3 free bonuses are exclusively for buyers of 31 Days to Build a Better Blog (both past and present) and they’re only available until 4pm on Tuesday 19 January – Melbourne time (that’s 11pm Eastern in the US on Monday 18th and 4am London time on Tuesday 19th).
The cost of the 31DBBB workbook is $19.95 – it contains 31 days of teaching and daily activities to help you create a dynamic blog. Make your purchase and get it and the 3 bonuses here.
If you have already purchased the workbook you should have received an email from me in the last 12 hours (sent to the PayPal email address you paid with) that contains details of where to get the bonuses. If you purchased it through SitePoint I’m working on getting you the bonuses too.

Well, this was a nice little surprise in my e-mail.
31DBB was an awesome read, I still reference it when I am stumped for post ideas (purchased during the release), then I get the e-mail for these new bonuses.
I don’t read your blog as often as I should, but always a pleasure to do so.

Out of the last 10-12 posts here at ProBlogger, there has been very little new material offered. Lots of regurgitation, lots of self-promos, and some blogger backscratching…
There was a story about surveys the other day. And on the 3rd there was the “F it” story. Those were new, insightful and helpful.

Just wanted to say I bought 31 Days to Build a Better Blog last year, and it was one of my best buys of 2009.
I highly recommend it for any blogger who is hoping to increase his or her readership.

I love how many people you have got promoting this offer for you. Would it be fair to say that a lot of them are purchasers of the ebook as well?

I already bought through Sitepoint, and it was a great buy, so if any of you out there are skeptical, it’s definitely worth buying. You will learn a lot from this e-book. :-)

I bought this ebook a few days ago as well. So far I find the information quite useful, and not just for a blog; but things like the elevator pitch are good for any type of website/business.
I recall seeing a point somewhere in the ordering process about it being not for an absolute beginner. I think it will be easier to apply some of the recommendations after you’ve established something of a blog.

That is awesome, I loved your series when it was online. Bit of a rush though. The book and these extras is a no brainer for a great kick in the proverbial to get that ole blog launched into the interwebs.

Hi Darren
As usual, you’re extremely generous. Thanks for introducing great people like Neil Patel, Leo And Zen. I am a newbie. I want everyone to visit my blog. I hope everyone who reads pro blogger is listening as I know this is one of the greatest places on earth for getting intellectual traffic.
Please help my blog and me to grow with each passing day!
Thanks

Your book is absolutely help to create niche blog. But I have to analyze before deal

I admit that I haven’t completely followed through with all the steps in the workbook, but have absolutely loved the steps that I have applied. It’s time for me to finish all the steps and experience the full impact.
Although I’ve only applied a portion of the workbook it’s already been worth way more than the small wise investment that I made.
The two audio bonuses are absolutely awesome! I listened to them during my workouts and picked up some very valuable tips.
It sure sounds like it’s going to be a ROCK’n year at ProBlogger

Based on recommendations alone, this book is something I really need.
Hey, Darren, would it be okay if I ask another blogger friend to shoulder half of the price of your book with me and two of us used it for our blogs?
Campanola
January 14th, 2010 7:52 am
Some of the steps in the book seem a little time consuming, but worth it overall if you really want to build your blog. I was thrilled at some of the ideas because they were actually fun to do!

Hi Daren,
I tried couple of times to purchase this book through your site but my credit card rejucted my credit cards on each occasions. Whats going on. I guess you prefer paypal only. I am not a subscriber to it.
I will order my copy when your site accepts my credit or debit card. I am an old fashion guy. You have to bear with me. It takes time for me to adjust to innovations and new fads.
Until then I will continue to endeavor to learn whatever I could piece meal on line.
Thanks,
Indigent novice.

Well I bought it! Darren just made it sound too good and I had to try it.
So far I’ve only read the first task and starting working on it. But it looks promising, I’m already feeling impressed.
The bonus material is great, but the book alone is worth the money, and I’ve barely read any of it!
No, Darren didn’t pay me to praise his book, I just like his style I guess.
Thanks for the bonus stuff too!

HP Toner Blogger – the book is really designed for personal use so of course I’d prefer one copy per person – but I guess there’s nothing really stopping you from sharing it with a friend. I’ll leave that one up to you :-)
thanks for your interest.

Jeffry – it’s been one of those months where I’ve had a lot on and have been launching some new stuff. Apologies if you feel things have been a bit off track but I’m working on some great new blog posts for the blog that are anything but self promotional. Thanks for the feedback.

Ordered this last night (UK time) and nothing has come through via email – did you guys got your delivered instantly or did you have to wait a while?
I’m planning on spending my lazy Sunday picking up some tips for my blogs, they aren’t getting enough attention at the moment and I need some inspiration to get back on track :)

I already purchased last night, and now I’m still struggling with day 2 task.
However after I figured out the table of content of this workbook, I get my confidence to (re)build my old blog for better blogging. And I committed to accomplish all that daily tasks mentioned in this workbook for better blogging.
Thanks, Darren!

Briefly going through the workbook and all i can say is you really put on effort to create a blogger to be as successful as you do. Thanks for the e-books and truthfully i think you are selling a really low price

OK, obviously there is lots of praise; and for good reason.
I just bought the book, slammed through the whole thing in about 45 minutes. It’s brilliant! No seriously.
Hands down one of the most well thought out courses I’ve purchased in the last 6 months. (no I’m not paid) (yes, I am a real customer)
The daily outline is concise and explains just enough detail to understand what you need to do, as well why you are doing it.
There is a downside however. Here it is:
Nowhere, at least that I could find, does the book spend any significant time on monetization.
Great info on scheduling and the actual process of content creation, but show me the money!
That is my only beef with the material. I can’t lie, I’m this for the money, so my expectations were to see more focus (which there is practically none) on effective ad placement, what type of advertising works best, etc., etc.
And please, all you “mindset” people out there, please don’t tell me I need a mindset adjustment or something and I need to focus on the principles taught in the material. If I wanted self help I would bought a Tony Robbins course.
Again, don’t get me wrong – I really really like the material THAT IS included in the book. I just feel like a crucial component was left out – i.e. “make money”
But other than that it’s worth the $20 bones.

Have just recently re-subscribed to the 31DBBB. Started last year but was just a beginner at the whole blogging thing. I am doing day 2 today. Have you ever wondered why it is challenging to make those New Years Resolutions stick? Check out my blog – 7 Reasons to Change Only One Habit at a Time.
If you want to be successful in changing habits it takes some planning and strategy. Good luck with this
Darren Rowse
January 20th, 2010 3:24 pm
Thanks for the feedback Zak – you’re right though, there’s no monetization in this book, it’s not really the focus of this one. Instead it was about tackling the problems that I hear bloggers facing of finding things to write about and generating traffic – foundational stuff which helps build a good blog which in turn helps profit. There will be more resources on monetization down the track but in the mean time the ProBlogger Book does introduce that topic.

Going thru a bit of a burnout, listening to the podcasts really got me back into the groove of my niche blog. Especially Zen Habits one. His Relaxed approach to somethings was what got me thinking, same as David Risleys line of Don’t worry be crappy, know when good is good enough.
Thanks for the bonuses Darren.
