So now you're writing about your passion. You've found your keyword, and now you're going to bash out a few articles. Stop and think for a while.

Out of the articles that you have read over the space of your life which one's have you enjoyed the most? For me, it's been the articles that have made me feel like I have a strong connection to what's being said.

Say for instance I was trying to sell an application that keeps spelling and grammar in check whenever a user is to write on the web.

What would sound better?

"Grammarly is a really good application. Not only does it check spelling but it keeps that Grammar in check. It also has options to upgrade if you are interested in doing that. It's recommended by millions of users. My friend uses Grammarly and she absolutely sings its praises. One of the better writing apps if I'm honest"

Or

"I had been getting tired of the long hours spent correcting my sloppy work. I often write too fast and I am prone to more than the odd typo. It seemed strange that I would click on a Spellchecker. I was always top of the class at my spelling and grammar. I was feeling weird about now. Yet something needed to change to reduce my workload or I was going to go insane.

Grammarly literally changed my life. Not only did it do x, y and z, but it helped with a,b and c." And so on.

Did you see what I did there?

The first one was good. Yet it had no connection to the reader. Yes, I'd probably get a few sales from that but what I failed to do was build a connection with whoever was reading my article. I talked too much about the product and not enough about my own experience.

The second one kicked experience ass. It built a connection with the reader before I went forward onto the promo. People are emotional beings. We connect through feelings and emotions.

Not too sure who coined it but I see it shared on facebook so many times:

"People might not always remember your name, but they'll always remember how you made them feel."

You might feel that this is beyond your skillset. Don't worry. Next tutorial will be teaching you how to do this! :)

Hi Raymond!

I agree with your statement that you need to know the subject and have a passion for what you are going to work on in your niche.

But, in my opinion, I also think that if you have the passion for learning things, you can learn new things as well and work with that!

If you suddenly discovered the passion for building websites, then start learning about it. if you have discovered the passion for go fishing, go for it and start learning and learn as much you can about it.

The only problem with that is that it takes time to master it. Thus, starting with something what you already know and you are passionate about, is a better way to start. As you grow work on your passions.

In my example, I am working on my online marketing passion, although my biggest passion my whole life is tennis and the next big one is astrology.

I love all of them. Thus, setting priorities, entering into learning processes and start practicing your passion (or passions) is for sure the way to go. Sometimes it takes longer, sometimes shorter, but, in the end, if you really are passionate about a certain topic (product, service, skill, whatever) you will find the way to do it.

Thanks again for sharing your thoughts.

Wish you a lot of success,
Best regards,
Igor

Stay well, market better, convert best!

so what do all those guys, bragging they make 5, 6 figure incomes do then? where do they get ideas to feed all their websites with content? can they be passionate about literally anything? there are hundreds of them bragging around the internet and YouTube, Are they all scam?

well we can't lump 'all' of them together, but you make a good point about their 'websites' because it looks like most of them don't have one, they just have an aggressive marketing strategy designed to pressure people to buy their services and THAT is what makes them the money, and yes a lot of it is scam. They are getting rich but the product may not be worth it or worth the price...

well, that explains a lot then, they look quite reliably though, all those impressive GA stats all over their websites, that could be counterfeit, but some of them manage to trick poor Bob Proctor to got them his endorsement, that is really something... many thanks for your reply and your kind explanation
Cheers

I feel the same - I know nothing about website building but i want to be a WA affiliate - it's brought me to a halt trying to write content on something I don't fully understand. Your article was well timed! Thank you!

Hello rbaxter80, definitely know what your talking about. I got the same issue, mind block. I have been studying to be an investor and know more about that and, here with WA I'm going for marketing and advertising. Always thought why can't I get paid to be online, not knowing people where already doing it. Well long story, so think I will let you get back to it. Best of luck on your goals. Hope it works out for you. I just got into course 2, lesson 1. Still trying to figure all this out. Just moved my site over to my own domain. Going to see how that works. I'll keep in touch. Many blessings to you and it will work out in the end.
