For Me, Blogs and Newsletters are getting expensive now

I have often been vocal about having your own blog and newsletter. because the results I have seen with them have always been amazing, The conversions are great and I have full control over the whole process.

But … time is changing now. And many people have started thinking this to be an expensive and time-consuming process.

❝

Now as we are moving more and more toward the AI world, I am pretty sure that things are going to get expensive. I bought a domain for $5 but recently paid $25 to renew it.

When it comes to business, you need a lot of tools to make your business profitable.

I personally use some of the following tools →

GoDaddy, NameCheap - for domains

NameCheap - for hosting my blogs

Canva - design (still and will remain favorite forever)

Beehiiv - newsletter (awesome tool but expensive)

Google Sheet - for tracking my budgets and financial growth. I also use it now to keep track of my post on various social media platforms. You can find one here.

Now I haven’t mentioned that you need a designer to make your blogs! The cost of plugins you need every now and then! AI tools and grammar checker is yet to be counted!

We all are looking for an all-in-one cheap solution! Replace NameCheap, ConvertKit, Teachable, Kajabi, ActiveCampaign, WordPress, Wix, Podia and Clickfunnel with one simple tool.

For me personally, the budget is getting out of hand right now. I have two blogs and even small side hustles. I am planning to have more micro-niche blogs (only for affiliate marketing) in the coming months.

Systeme.io is probably the fastest, easiest, and cheapest way to start a successful online business. It does pretty much everything that Kajabi, Teachable, and Kartra do. It’s just way cheaper and a lot easier.

It’s definitely lacking the higher-end features that other internet marketing platforms have. But that’s not the point. Systeme.io is for entrepreneurs that don’t want to pay for advanced features that they’ll never use.

I was reading a blog post on Medium where someone recommended me to try System.io.

I neglected this because I thought only affiliate marketers use this platform for making different landing pages and different blogs.

But it has everything you need.

It’s all-in-one solution!

You make blogs, newsletters, and ClickFunnels all starting at $27 per month.

That’s one-fourth I was paying for so long!

Features you’ll get with the simple price!

Now let’s see what System.io can do. I have paid almost $500 in the past just for the domain and hosting for my two blogs. My third niche blog is yet to see the daylight and mostly working on Social media alone.

The best thing here is that I can build my websites in a few clicks!

I use a third party to sell my courses. They charge 10% + 0.33 (minimum!) for every sale. But with my one System.io subscription, you keep 100% of the sale income. I will be shifting all my courses to their platform because there will be no more fees charged!

Now a very personal thing. I use an expensive newsletter (sorry!) for my business. But System.io has a newsletter system with your subscription!

If you are into affiliate marketing then you need to make different sales funnel.

Conclusion

As an online entrepreneur, I really like to have multiple businesses but…. with simple pricing tools. No one wants to pay $1000 for those features that you won’t be using ever! I have done this in the past. And we all know that spending money is easy but earning isn’t.

A question was asked in my Medium article about the simple ways that anyone can make money online. I would say to do two things - first, build social media followings. Second, buy System.io. You won’t regret it because this is the secret of many entrepreneurs out there!
