Welcome to...How to start a recipe blog

 

Do you love to cook? Are you looking for an internet based business idea? Combine the two!

I want to let you know about Just Add Sweat and a great eGuide they've released catering to people who are interested in cooking, recipes and making some money on the internet.

JoAnne Wescott and Nicole Dean are two great business owners who are sick of the hype and just want to offer real information on making money using real business models. There's a quote on their website that really does a great job of defining their whole concept:

"Genius is one per cent inspiration and ninety-nine per cent perspiration." - Thomas A. Edison

After reviewing their 'How to Start a Recipe Blog for Fun and Profit' eGuide I highly recommend it. It's great for someone who's interested in starting a business based on his or her love of cooking.

Of course, as with any JustAddSweat guide, the only thing you need to add is your own hard work and sweat!

'Start a recipe blog for fun and profit'- eGuide - A Review 

By JoAnne Westcott and Nicole Dean

I can't tell you how many different business ideas I've heard over the years and it's really hard to tell which ones are actually going to make some real money.

So when I picked up the eGuide from JustAddSweat.com on how to start your own recipes blog I wasn't too sure how someone could possibly go about turning their love of cooking into a profitable business venture.

After reading the guide, though, I can see how easy it is to get started and how much value and quality a blog site with targeted recipes can bring to its readers.

JoAnne and Nicole have done a great job of putting together a guide that will give anyone who wants to start this type of blog the tools they need to get going right away.

What's included:

·Definition of a blog.

·How you can make money blogging.

·How to choose your market and set up your blog.

·What to blog about.

·How to get traffic to your blog and make money.

One thing that's great about this guide is the step by step instructions, audio and videos that guide you through setting up your first blog. As you're reading through you can have your blog set up in a very short period of time by following what's been laid out for you. There are audio and video portions to go with these blog setup instructions too, so you learn by your preferred method.

The use of an article on copywriting seems a little out of place to me, though. I think some people who are new to internet businesses may not relate blogging and copywriting together (though they are certainly very related) and may feel intimidated by the idea of having to be a 'copywriter' for their blog.

In the appendix section there is a list of everything you need for setting up your business and blog, which is great for people just starting out.

There is real value in this product and for one great price you get a 35-page eGuide, a SweatStory Success interview, audio blog tips, bonus Time Management Guide and a 2007 Blogging Calendar.

I'm sure I don't have to tell you that people are on the internet looking for recipes ALL the time, so if you like to cook and think you'd like blogging this is one guide you'll want to check out.
