In this video, you will learn how to make more money from your blog with 6 tweaks in 2017.

These small tweaks will not only help you make more sales but also improve brand trust, traffic, email subscriptions, and more.

Enjoy the video and let me know what you think in the comments below!

Here are a few tweaks to make to your blog:

1. Use a Popup

A popup is one of the most effective ways to collect subscribers and build your email list.

Helpful resources:

• Optinmonster popup service
• Sumome marketing tools

2. Use social proof

Social proof is one way to help visitors to your blog think of you as an authority right away. When people see thousands of post shares, email subscribers, etc., it looks good on your part.

Helpful resources:

• Jeff Bullas uses it
• Social Media Examiner uses social proof
• Easy Social Share Buttons for WordPress

3. Simplify your product choices

Believe it or not, more choices can lead to less sales, not more. Give people just a few choices and cut out the rest of the clutter on blog posts, sales pages, squeeze pages, etc.

Helpful resources:

• Study that proves this point
• Google uses fewer choices
• YouTube only offers a couple of products

4. Do category-specific lead magnets

A lead magnet is a free item that you give people in exchange for their email information when they subscribe. The problem with this is many bloggers have a one-size-fits-all lead magnet.

Use a different one for each blog category instead for better opt-in rates.

Helpful resources:

• Freak Training did this an increase conversions

5. Make it easier to order the product

The easier it is for users to do something, the more likely they are to do it. Just look at all the companies creating text message ordering or one-click checkout buttons.

Helpful resources:

• Amazon makes it easy to buy stuff
• Papa John's Pizza gives you tons of easy checkout options

6. Give people a great guarantee

A guarantee is needed to remove the risk people see with a purchase. Even though most people will never return a product they buy, having a 30 day money-back guarantee or something makes them feel more at ease.

Helpful resources:

• The new Tesla solar roof has a infinite warranty
• Some other guarantee examples

Conclusion

A blog has become a very lucrative business option that if leveraged correctly, can make a lot of money for you. You just have to make the right tweaks to get there.
