Created by Ryan Deiss of DigitalMarketer, Authority ROI is a training guide to starting a monetised authority blog.
What is the product?
Spread over 6 modules Authority ROI is video based training guide that teaches users how to start, operate and ultimately monetise a blog. According to Ryan Deiss, he and the rest of the DigitalMarketer team are all successful internet marketers and that Authority ROI draws on their collective knowledge. In fact, according to Ryan Deiss, everything that is contained within Authority ROI are methods that he and his colleagues actively employ in their own businesses. This is presented in 17 videos that cover topics ranging from researching your blog, branding and the creation process. Much of what Authority ROI shows you is about building an authority site which means that if you intend to use this to create a blog you should keep an open mind. There is also bonus content in the form of a launch guide for your first week as well as information on the plugins and themes that the DigitalMarketer team use on their websites.
What is the investment vs. the rate of return?
Authority ROI is not cheap and as such there are two different options for payment. The first is two $97 payments with one when you purchase and the second coming 30 days later. Alternatively you can opt to pay a one time $144 fee. There is a 60 day money back guarantee in place for Authority ROI however this is only vendor backed. When it comes to income potential, Ryan Deiss says that Authority ROI will talk you through making your first $1,000 however here aren’t any specific claims outside of this.
Does the product provide value for money?
Personally I think that Authority ROI is far too expensive for what is on offer and as such definitely doesn’t represent value for money.
Conclusion
Authority ROI doesn’t look to necessarily be a bad product. In fact, there is a fair amount of decent information however the price is simply too high for my liking. There are literally millions of results for information on starting a blog and many of the options are free which begs the question of why you would pay almost $200 for Authority ROI. Yes, the fact that the focus is on building authority blogs may hold some appeal but not at this cost.
