I just finished reading this excellent (and FREE) ebook by Yaro Starak and gideon Shalwick called “The Roadmap to Become a Blogger”. It basically lays down everything you need to know about making money from your own blog (which I also discussed to some extent in a previous post).
What I love most about Yaro and Gideon’s ebook is that it has action steps. Meaning, there’s a list of stuff you have to do to implement their advice. I love action steps because they are practical, and they note down all the tasks you need to accomplish. ( I used action steps in the post “How do I start as an online freelance writer?” to better explain what aspiring writers need to do.)
Anyway, going back to the ebook, you need to sign up before you can download it. Don’t worry – if you don’t like the email updates you receive, you can always unsubscribe. They carry out the mailing list using Aweber, which is a trustworthy, spam-free service.
Also, please note that some of the advice might not be applicable to Filipino bloggers, especially if your target audience is local. Still, it’s a great resource for beginning and veteran bloggers alike.

Haha! I’ve also just finished reading it, highly recommended read for aspiring & experienced bloggers alike. And I agree with you Celine that the “Action Steps” was a really neat feature.
For readers who like multimedia learning, there’s also a companion mp3 audio version of the ebook (you’ll be sent a download link when you sign up; you’ll also find it on the same page as the PDF download link).
Thanks for pointing out the MP3, Dyoonet.
I downloaded it, but haven’t tried listening to it yet.
Come to think of it, it seems like a good idea to compile free resources for bloggers. Hmm… maybe I’ll make that my next post.
