The blog setup service offered in my book has now been withdrawn as the service provider was overwhelmed with demand.
It’s quite a complicated job to get right when you try to learn to do it yourself, without any help. When I first started blogging I tried to do my blog setup myself, without help, and ended up getting it badly wrong and restarting over and over again.
However, there is comprehensive training in how to set up a blog in The ClickBank Profit Club Blogging Workshop > HERE. You can open a free account to check it out.
I wish I had done that instead of taken the DIY route, which set me back years! Don’t make my mistake, open a trial account at the ClickBank Profit Club, and you can get your blog set up and start your affiliate blog.
You can either follow the very short videos that explain everything, or you can take their done-for-you service.
Why Should You Set Up A Blog?
Building an online business can feel confusing when you first start. There are endless videos, courses, opinions, and “secret methods” online, and many beginners end up overwhelmed before they even take their first real step.
Many people will start building a business on social media, purely because that’s a way to find ‘free’ traffic. But what you will find is that although you don’t have to pay for the traffic with money, you have to pay for it with time. Lots of it.
A blog gives you a home online that you control. Social media can be useful, but platforms change constantly. Accounts can disappear, algorithms can reduce your reach overnight, and posts quickly get buried. A blog is different because your content stays online long-term and continues working for you over time.
For anyone interested in affiliate marketing, blogging also creates trust. Most people do not buy from strangers immediately. They want to learn about the person behind the recommendation first. When you write blog posts consistently, you give readers a chance to get to know you, understand your journey, and see what you are learning.
That is especially important for beginners.
One of the biggest mistakes many new affiliate marketers make is simply posting links everywhere without creating any useful content. Blogging helps solve that problem because it allows you to provide information, share experiences, answer questions, and help people before recommending anything.
Another major benefit of blogging is that it works perfectly alongside email list building. A blog can attract visitors from search engines and social media, and then those visitors can join your email list if they are interested in your content. Over time, this helps you build an audience that you can stay connected with instead of relying only on short-term traffic.
This is one of the reasons I believe learning the right foundations matters so much.
That brings me to The ClickBank Profit Club.
As a beginner, one of the hardest things is knowing what to focus on first. Many people jump between different strategies and never stay consistent long enough to build momentum. What I like about The ClickBank Profit Club is that it gives beginners a clearer path to follow, and includes the blogging workshop.
Instead of trying to piece everything together alone, the system provides training, guidance, setup help, and follow-up support in a structured way. For someone who is just starting, that can remove a huge amount of confusion.
I also like the fact that the system focuses on building an email list while learning to promote ClickBank products. That approach makes much more sense than simply sending people directly to offers and hoping they buy immediately.
The ClickBank Profit Club also feels more realistic than many online programs. It does not present affiliate marketing as instant success or easy money. Instead, it encourages people to learn skills, build consistently, and create a long-term business foundation.
For me, that is important.
I believe blogging, list building, and learning proper affiliate marketing skills all work together. When you set up a blog, that helps you create useful content, an email list helps you build relationships, and a structured training system helps you avoid wasting time going in the wrong direction.
That is why I believe blogging is essential for beginners, and The ClickBank Profit Club is one of the best ways to start learning affiliate marketing properly. Even if you’re not interested in promoting ClickBank products, the club will teach you the correct way to do affiliate marketing and build an list. Then you can promote any products you wish to your own email list.
You can open a free account and watch a short orientation video to learn more about the club here, and watch out for the blogging workshop.
