Brad Merrill has been building things on the web for well over a decade. In 2010, he started a blog about technology and innovation, and in just a couple of years it grew into a large publication with staff and revenue, serving more than half a million monthly readers. His work has been featured on Techmeme and cited by a number of notable blogs and publications, including the Wall Street Journal.
In this course, Brad condenses more than ten years of trial and error into a simple blueprint designed to help you build a successful blog. You'll learn all the essentials, including:
The mindset of a successful blogger

How to promote your content to ensure people actually see it
How to build and leverage an email list to generate traffic and revenue on demand
How to turn your blog into a business that generates revenue
Why would you want to build a blog? Well, there are many different motivations, but here are a few of the most common:
Build a business: A blog can be the center of a low-overhead, location-independent, lucrative business. There has never been a better time to do this—the Internet has made it cheaper and easier than ever before for anyone to start a business.
Grow an existing business: Content marketing is one of the best ways to drive your business forward, and a blog is a tried and true format. Many of the world's biggest companies and brands are now using digital content to market their products and services, so you'll be in great company if you do the same.
Showcase your expertise: If you want to position yourself as a thought leader or expert, blogging is an excellent way to do it. A blog can be a powerful asset if you're trying to build a personal brand, get a job, sell services, or launch a career in public speaking.
Build Relationships: Blogging is a great way to become an active and influential member of your community, which can help you build relationships with people you want to reach.
If you're thinking of starting a blog this year, there's never been a better time. This course will walk you through the entire process—setting up WordPress, writing stellar content, promoting that content, building an email list, and implementing a revenue model to turn your blog into a business. It's all here.

set up
It's also very thorough in covering pretty much everything that you might need to know in order to set up your own blog.
There is a good amount of content from site set up to marketing.
I’m so inspired, just set up my site and started blogging today.
Still early in the course but ok, I have the mindset......I haven't given up yet....YIKES!.....Getting ideas for interviews, there is a summit with speakers in my Niche this and last week that I am making a list to interview for my blog......adding their links and all..... Good upto so far its not boring listening to the course Yes great so far So far it is a good experience A good overall view of creating a blog, set up as a kind of mini encyclopedia to refer back to.
If you were looking for other tips and such, I’d still recommend this, but know that you will have to go through the WP set up processes first before getting to marketing, etc.
TL;DR An investment well worth your time but you'll need to take an extra course that includes how to ACTUALLY set up a blog on WordPress with all the details.
I am just a beginner, I have my WordPress set up and started getting it set up and a lot he talked about was something in the future for me but I can always go back to the course and take the next step.
I would have liked a better explanation as to how to blog as a beginner and to set up WordPress.com account and blog page setup.
Also, I loved the way he concisely and clearly broke down all of the steps required to set up one's own WordPress site.
Excellent explanation of steps in getting set up along with recommendations that helped me make the right choices from the start.
