According to
Wikipedia,
"A weblog, which is usually shortened to
blog, is a type of
web
site
where entries are made (such as in a journal or diary)." (Wikipedia, March
2007) It was not until recently however, that people have been using blogging as
a full time home based business and have been making enough money to make it
worth while.
So, how do you start to
make money blogging? Believe it or not, It's actually fairly easy to get
started. If you have a access to a
computer and internet it can even be
completely free! If you do not have a computer at home, you can always go to
your local library and blog from there. So, if you are serious about making
money blogging, there should be no excuses stopping you.
Once you decide that blogging is right for you, you need
to find a blogging platform. There are a number of web sites that will allow you
to host your blog. Alternatively, you can
create you own website and blog using
wordpress.
If you decide that making your own blog web site is a little beyond your
technical skills, you can use any of the following companies.
Obviously there literally
hundreds of other blogging sites that you can use. Feel free to do a search for
"free blog" in your favorite search engine.
Once you have a platform from
which to start blogging, you need to decide on your "niche" market. Think about
the last time you searched on the internet for a topic that you wanted to learn
more about? Perhaps you even found our site by doing such a search. The simple
fact is, people go to the internet to find information. If you can supply that
information, you will begin to accrue readers and profit from that web traffic.
By choosing a niche market,
like make money blogging for example, you are funneling the search traffic into
a select group of people who will actually be interested in what you have to
say. So, rather than coming to your blog and hitting the back button, the reader
will see that your blog is about their
interests and will stay and read.
The next step is to blog
every day. In fact, one of the biggest mistakes new bloggers make is thinking
that they can post a blog and forget about it. This is NOT the case. In order to
make it big, you have to keep readers interested and coming back to your blog
again and again.
It's really not hard to do,
especially if you chose a niche market that you are interested in. People really
do want to know what you have to say, even if it is only opinions or your daily
life story. Once you get someone interested, they will come back time and time
again and that is where the money is made.
Next, you need to throw up
some ads. You can choose from any number of ad companies but for beginners we
suggest either
Google Adsense, or
Yahoo Marketing
Once you have your ads up and
once you attract enough readers, sit back, continue blogging and watch the money
come in. Each time someone views your blogs, there is a chance (usually around
2%) that they will click on an ad and you will get paid. Talk about an easy home
business! The more readers you get, the more money you will rake in. Some blogs
make well over 6 figures a year and the sky is the limit. So why not get started
and begin making money online by blogging?
