Make Money Blogging - Profit Potential

By Tiffany Dow

It sounds unbelievable, but simple blogs being set up by everyday men and women are raking in tens of thousands of dollars each month in ad revenue and selling for upwards of $15 million. But does this mean Joe Blogger can set up his own average blog and make money blogging the same way these special cases do? If you go about it the right way, you can!

If you want to cash in with a blog of big buck proportions, then you want to set it up from start to finish in a way that helps you make money blogging through sales links, but also attracts advertisers and buyers to make you an offer you can't refuse.

A blog can be set up in mere minutes. You register a domain (or use a free site like WordPress or Blogger), point your servers to your hosting company, click the Fantastico blog button, and it's live!

From that point on, the secret to helping you make money blogging is in the details. What theme will you use? What layout? Do you ping or not? If this all sounds foreign to you, then don't worry - it's really simple once you have the right guidance.

What will you need to commit to as a part time or full time professional blogger?

1.) Frequency - you have to blog on a regular basis, which might mean weekly, but it's best if it's daily. The more you blog, the more often search engines visit your site.

2.) Laws - know the laws surrounding images and copyrights that you need to adhere to.

3.) Consumer needs - if you don't know what your readers want to know about, then your readership will suffer.

If your goal is to be the next Perez Hilton, whose blog is rumored to make over $50,000 a month in ad space, or sell your blog like Bankoholic.com's owner just did for a cool $15 mil, then you'll want to discover the intricate details of adding the best bells and whistles to your blog.

At first, you may only make a few dollars a day in AdSense revenue, but your blog will quickly become fodder for the search engine spiders like Googlebots, who will hand deliver buyers and advertisers to your virtual door with a knock and a fist full of cash for you to consider.

Atomic Blogging - System

By Thomas K

When it comes to making money online, a lot of beginners will have problems setting up a website since not everyone has a computer engineer background like me nor are they are tech savvy. They want to make money online because they have kids to raise, want to have freedom from work and financial independence and that's it. They are just ordinary people. If you are struggling to build a website but want to Make Money Online, I Have Good News for You.

I have found some resources on the internet that basically, if you know how to type, edit and save a document using MS Word or some other word processors then you can build a website - It's called blogging. Blog is a word combined from web and logs. Basically people use to it to share thoughts, ideas and their stories with their friends, families and may be people around the world.

You can easily set up a blog by using some free online platforms like Bloggers and WordPress.com. If you want to know a step by step guide on how to set up those free blogs, you can watch my videos here on.

How Do You Make Money With Your Blog?

If you are serious about making money online with your blog and just started, I strongly recommend you get an eBook named "Atomic blogging by Alvin Phang".

I bought this book about 1 year ago and found that what Alvin suggested was practical and provided step by step details from setting up a professional WordPress blog to monetize it through Adsense and Affiliate Programs. It is surely a useful eBook if you are seriously want to make money online but don't know how to start.

So What Is This Atomic Blogging All About?

It shows you how to get a cheap domain, reliable and affordable hosting and set up your own WordPress blog. But why do you need a self Hosted Blog, you ask? Is it essential?

Well, those free blog platforms, blogger or WordPress belongs to Google and WordPress. If they decide one day, they are not going to offer you a free platform any more, or they think your blog is offensive or violates their terms of use; they have rights to shut it down. So for those who are seriously want to make a living online, please get a self hosted blog.

As I have already said not everyone is a tech savvy so that's why you need Atomic Blogging Version 2.

1. What About You Already Have a Blog?

Many people including me will ask a question, how to you get traffic to my blog? This is quite true especially you want to make money online. No traffic, no adsense clicks, not able to sell advertising space or affiliate sales etc.

Surely you can start an advertising campaign on Google, Yahoo or MSN and drive traffic. You can do that but the problems are (1) you have advertising cost, if you don't know what how those PPCs work, they can be very expensive. I have tried them myself so I know how expensive they are.

2. Once You Stop Your Campaign, will you still able to get traffic? The answer I think here is obvious.

So the best way to get traffic is using methods like SEO or so called referral traffics.

In Alvin's Atomic Blogging, he will show you blogging SEO tips and also drive traffic from various social bookmarking sites like Digg, and onlywire.com.

3. The Third Thing I like about atomic blogging is its continuous free update. Once you have bought that book, you've got life time free update! I mean this is a big bonus. You know when you buy a book from a publisher say McGraw Hill, will they send you a life time free update of the book you've just bought? Of course not! They never, but with this package, you will!

That's probably the beauty of eBooks, life time free update.

4. Step by Step Beginner tips on how you get started to make money online No matter you are doing business online or offline, you need a niche or a targeted market. Atomic Blogging shows you how to find a profitable niche by keyword research If you know nothing about keyword research, that book will show you or you can watch my simpler form video on.

Does Your Niche Work

In fact it comes with a free Keyword Research Tool if you haven't got one that has a free bonus to its customers.

The other things that Alvin teaches you are how to set up an adsense account, how to select the best ClickBank affiliate products to maximize your profits.

It is essential for people who want to earn money online like me and you.

Atomic Blogging also comes with many bonuses, the one that interested me apart from life time update, and its one year Free VDS Hosting provided Jump line.

To me it is attractive; also you have Yaro Starack, a professional blogger who had 1000 readers daily to his blog interview. Surely it is essential for any marketers to succeed online.

3 Little Known Tips For Coming Up With Ideas For Your Blog

By Theo McLanahan

Everyone from students writing reports to newspaper reporters writing articles experience writer's block from time to time. Blogger's block is also a rather common problem among blog writers, since at times you just don't know what to post on your blog.

It would be best to not simply insert reprint articles into your blog. Ideally, you want your blog to reflect your own distinctive voice. If you want to use a reprint article, put it on your website and then link to it from your blog. That way, the content of your blog remains uniquely yours.

Maintaining your personal voice when writing for your blog will help readers get to know you and your personality, leading to a relationship between reader and writer.

You can find some great ideas for blog entries by reading the newspaper, watching the news, and checking out online news sources. Use the information put out by the media to create something interesting for your readers. If your website is about home schooling, for example, and you come across a media story relating to that, update your blog with a story about or your reaction to it.

Since your blog entry is sure to build some interest in readers, they will appreciate it if you link back to the news story your blog is about.

Blog entries can even help you make money when you post about your affiliate programs. Blogging about an item by suggesting how to use it or writing a review of it will give you a good topic for your next blog entry and, each time a reader buys the item because of what you wrote in your blog, you earn some money too.

Adding a new article to your website or making other changes can be posted to your blog, since this will help you boost traffic to your website. When you publish a new article on your website, put an excerpt of it on you blog and add a link to your site, inviting readers to read the entire article.

Blog posts should be beneficial to your readers. Advice on St. Patrick's Day decorating is not useful to anyone at Thanksgiving time. Your readers would be interested, however, in reading about pilgrim-shaped crafts and turkey recipes.


Are you using free article submission to promote your website? How often has an article directory actually paid you for your articles? Find out how you can get paid for submitting articles at the Articles Gone Viral website.

Blog Writing is Easy - Steps 1-2-3

By Tellman Knudson

Okay, so you have been building your internet business.

You have chosen your niche; you've set up your blog page; and you might have even purchased an autoresponder and hosting account! You're really rolling now.

Then, it hits you...a MAJOR roadblock.

You know that the best way to drive traffic to your website is to blog (and often) BUT what do you write about?

What do you say?

What if it is not good enough?

What if it sounds unprofessional?

What if you write something wrong and then the entire universe thinks that you are dumb?

Relax.

Breath.

Calm down.

I have good news!

Blog writing is EASY and I can tell you exactly what you need to know! Follow these steps and you will be on your way to driving massive traffic to your website because you are bloggin' and LOVIN' It!

Step 1: Don't Think Too Hard

Whatever you do, DON'T think too hard! Your blog post should be a relaxed piece of writing, similar to a personal diary entry. By this, I mean that the content should come to you without a lot (or any) research. The entry does not have to be a shinny piece of professional wirting.

Instead, it is better to be conversational. Write in the way you think. Oh, and don't use contractions (Don't you wish you were told that in high school?). Use basic and small words, which will keep your readers attention longer.

Make your readers eager for your future posts by being funny; use humor.

Step 2: Write About Real Life Experiences

Building a relationship with your readers is important because it turns readers into customers. When they feel that they know you, they will be more confident and likely to purchase from you in the future. Make them like you and create a relationship with your readers by telling them about your real life experiences.

Use daily events to influence how you deliver information. For example, if your niche is dog training and yesterday your dog did something really cool like came to you when you called him, talk about that event in your blog post. Relate the experience you just had with your dog to a specific niche-related technique

And remember, just because you think the information you know may be basic doesn't mean your readers will...you are the expert after all!

Step 3: Use Simple Yet POWERFUL Technical Components

Okay, so I am sure that you know that there are lots of different technical tricks you can use to leverage your blog for search engines and to increase your "click-through" rate. Many involve HTML code writing or crafty tricks that you practically need a degree from MIT to do.

However, there is hope for those of us who are not technical geniuses.

First, keep your blog post to 300-400 words (This is another thing I bet you wish you heard in high school).

In this case, less is more!

By keeping your post short and sweet (and remember, funny too), you will engage your readers and they will not be annoyed or overwhelmed by your lengthy monologue.

Second, attract search engines to your blog by keeping your key word density level at approx. 2.0. Now, don't get scared if you don't know what "key word density" is. All it means is that out of the 300-400 words in your blog post, 6-8 of the words should be your key word(s). Using the example above, "dog training" could be a key word and should appear 6-8 times in each blog post.

Blog writing can be a lot of fun and is a really important part of building an internet business. By posting regularly, you can drive massive traffic to your site and make tons of sales as a result. Just remember to relax and use these 3 steps to blog everyday!
