I frequent a lot of other blogs. Ok, so mainly I stick to ones that can show me how to make money, but hey wouldn’t you? Some of the things I am doing even today I have learned from these blogs. I also love to see that there are real people making money online so it helps to keep things in perspective for me and keeps me encouraged to know that I can do it too. So, with that being said, I thought I would share 5 of my favorite passive income blogs.

Smart Passive Income – I just recently found this one (how did I miss this when I first started out) and it is definitely my all time favorite. The guy who runs it, Pat Flynn, is a very down to earth sounding guy, knows his stuff and has a real life like everyone else. In fact, as of the time I am writing this, he just had a brand new baby a few days ago. His blog is insightful, inspirational and fun to read. I never get bored. In fact, I get kinda sad on the days when I go there and he has not posted. He also has an eHow project like I do and has generated some amazingly high dollars on his own e-products as well. If you subscribe to any other blog (aside from mine of course) I highly recommend Pat’s.

Chad Hershey’s Blog – Chad’s passive income blog is another great read. His posts tend to make me think about things. Not just ideas…but more along the lines of success and knowing who you are and where you want to be. He sounds like a great motivator and I would love to one day meet this man in person because I think he would just be “contagious” with his positive attitudes.

Passive Earners – I have to admit, Passive Earners is one I spend a significant amount of time on. He has such a huge amount of information, ideas, stories and just interesting things to read that I can’t stop reading. Definitely a guy after my own heart with the constant desire to make more money!

ProBlogger – Darren’s blog is another highly filled content blog with loads of information for creating a passive income for yourself. What is really great about Darren’s blog is that it’s not just straight “how to make money” posts, instead he posts a lot of things you can do on your blog to make it better. One of his latest was how to get more reader interaction. He has a lot of knowledge to share!

Wake Up Later – This is a newer blog for me and I almost didn’t include it on this list, but I truly think I will love this blog once I dive a bit more into it. What caught my eye and why I am recommending it on this top 5 is the Interviews section. I dove into these interviews and I think they are just too “spot on” to pass up. Take a read over there and let me know what you think. It’s a great way to learn how others are doing what we are trying to do and something I may consider even doing here at PPI in the future.

There you have it! My top 5 passive income blogs that I am currently reading. Check them out and let me know what you think!
