New Fitness Blog Community for Ambitious Fitness Bloggers

Got a Fitness Blog? You are going to like this. I've been working on an innovative idea with a couple of other big-time fitness bloggers, and I couldn't wait to tell you about it. I have partnered up with Scott Kustes from Modern Forager and Mike O'Donnell from The IF Life to form a new fitness "Mega-Site" that will benefit every member who joins.

[If it has been over 5 years since you went on a tropical beach vacation, then something needs to change in your life. Life is too short to spend doing things you dislike. Aim for something big…whatever that is…and then do it!]

We Are Looking for Generous Fitness Bloggers!

I actually started Fitness Black Book, because I was a bit turned off by all the sales pages disguised as fitness blogs. I certainly don't mind people who make money from their blog, I just dislike it when that is the main focus. The sites that draw me in are those with a "give first" mentality. Sites that help you without spending a dime. I can quickly tell if a blogger wants to genuinely help people and get his or her message out. If this is you, then we want to work with you!

Why Would You Want or Need to Work With Us?

If you have a "give first" and generous mentality, then we will help you increase the amount of visitors to your website dramatically. We will also help get your name out there on the internet. At some point, we plan on collaborative ebooks and things of that nature…the first goal is to get each and every member to critical mass as far as daily visitors are concerned. Don't get stressed out if this sounds technical…good content is over 1/2 the battle.

The Criteria to Join our Health and Fitness Blogging Community

We are looking to work with a wide variety of fitness bloggers…not just people with my point of view (even though I'm right…LOL). No, seriously…more than anything we are looking for people with passionate view points. It could be that you only like to train with kettlebells, or you are a long distance runner, or you are in the process of losing 100 pounds, or a natural bodybuilder getting ready for a competition, or you are into CrossFit, etc. We want a wide range of viewpoints.

Think of This As a Massive Online Fitness Magazine

We are looking for people to maintain their blogs as normal, but occasionally contributing an article to the community site. Why would you want to do this? Well, because this becomes free publicity as well as a very valuable link back to your site. As our community site gets more and more powerful in the Search Engines, these articles will reach a bigger and bigger audience. With dozens and dozens of authors writing unique content on our shared Fitness site, it is just a matter of time before Google sees this site as an "authority site".

But Hasn't This Has Been Done Before?

Kind of…but here is the biggest difference. We are going to train you on how to get much more traffic than you are currently getting on your own personal blog. All three of us have high-traffic fitness sites…that exploded out of nowhere. I am the Search Engine specialist and was actually going to write an ebook on getting high rankings in Google, but I'm focusing my attention to helping you guys instead. According to Google Analytics, my site has been found by over 96,000 different search terms. I know a thing or two about getting listed all over the place in Google. Scott and Mike are amazing authors and WAY more tech-savvy than me (aka computer geeks). They are also better at making friends and have TONS of contacts within our industry.

A Small Window of Opportunity Here

I hate to say it, but if you want to ever have an online business you need to start immediately. I suggest that anyone who has any interest in this, go read this free report called The Rebirth of Internet Marketing. Basically, if you don't become a "Market Leader" quickly…it is going to get tough out there for you. Here is an excerpt from the free report:

This Isn't Just About Money. It Is About Improving The Internet.

I know that the goal of "improving the Internet" is a big one, but I'm serious. I don't like to go to Google and constantly see Big Businesses at the top of the result pages. I want to help you guys get there…"real people" helping other people. I'm already there with this site and I'm having a blast. At some point I will create paid products, but remember…I believe in giving first. If you help enough people the money follows. We want to help you help more people!

For Most of You We Plan on Building a Really Great Resource

All of you who aren't crazy enough to spend a LOT of their spare time building a blog…are really going to enjoy our site. The site is called Fitness Spotlight. Scott and Mike created it as a site that highlighted the "best of the web" fitness posts each week. I loved the idea and then helped them look for great posts as well. I actually only did it for a week, before we decided upon a new direction. Instead of pointing people towards posts on other people's sites we decided we wanted unique content contributed by talented authors…much like a magazine.

Maximizing the Strengths of Dozens of People

The idea is that each person can write about their specialty. As an example…someone on this site once asked me about shin splints. I don't know how to minimize shin splints, but I know there is someone out there who does. Why would I write about this subject if an Olympic track coach who has a blog could write a post on this? How about losing 200 pounds, bench pressing 405 pounds, running a sub-4 minute mile, etc.

How to Apply and Team up With Fitness Spotlight

It is pretty self explanatory. Remember, the main thing we care about is that you have a genuine desire to help people with your fitness knowledge. Some of the most successful fitness blogs I've seen are written by regular people who have dropped 150 pounds, or got back the pre-baby body, etc.
