Thanks Jim!
Hi Christine,
You’re so right. Stuff isn’t free, there’s so many extra things one needs. Which is okay. Everything can’t be free, but it does make getting started a bit of a challenge. At least for me right now.
I appreciate this e-book. Basically, I’m trying to figure out if I can get part of what I need up as a web blog. If I can add something each month until I get the basic set completed … maybe in two months. I could then link to my articles and blog posts from sites I visit, plus my social media posts. Just to get started …
For instance, get the hosting, WP theme, and security now. I have my domain name. Then add BackupBuddy. By then I can probably handle the monthly aWeber cost. But I have to check and see about a few other things that go along with that.
Also, I don’t see anywhere that Atahualpa (theme) is suggested. And yet, when I took a class from Marc Benetau, he recommended that free framework because it was so versatile.
Okay, so I’ll study your book and come back and ask a more informed question.
Just to say too that I pay attention to all your replies on the mynams forums.
Have a great day.
Patricia
P.S. I have no problem, whatsoever, sharing the wealth with you.

You can definitely get started with very little money. You have to have a domain name which is $12 a year or less. You have to have hosting which is about $7-8 per month. That’s it. Yes, having a premium theme, some premium plugins and an autoresponder should be on your list but you don’t need them to start.
Writing quality blog posts on a regular basis should be your first priority in order to build a regular reader base.
I mention Atahualpa in the ebook as I think it is a quality free theme that doesn’t need a child theme with it. I continue to use that theme on a couple of niche sites I built early on.
Thanks for your kind words!
