Make Money Blogging - Doing Something You Enjoy
By Dave Nettles
Back when blogging started out they called it a “web-log” it consisted of a log short articles of opinions and ideas posted on the web. As popularity grew the name “web-log” was combined and shortens to “blog”. The many uses of blogs have expanded to just about every subject you can think of. Blogs are used in big and small business for private, personal and public use. The factor that determines quality and repeat visitors is quality content. Developing and enthusiastic passion about a subject that others are interested in is the place to start out. People have varied interests and there is always another opportunity to start another blog on a new subject. Controversy creates interest like the planned new mosque at ground zero in NYC you can find opinions are endless and as many as there are people on the planet. Or a simple new blog that just records the disruptions caused in every country of the world by Muslims and Islam. One will ask how to make money blogging? Once you find the niche that is of interest to others and compile some content that builds a following or readership. Then it is time to monetize and this is done in a number of ways. One easy way is to sell advertising. Popular blog owners are approached by people that want to advertise on their blog at times with having to sell them first. It may be as simple as adding adsense to your blog when readers click on the adsense ads you make money. Whichever directions you decide to go in for your blog pick a subject that interests you something you are passionate about or maybe a hobby. You will need to provide updates to your blog and will need to make use of keywords. Keywords are what all the search engines use to find your blog. So you pick popular keywords then write articles around the popular keywords. Readers prefer creative content that attracts them and keeps them coming back time and time again. If the information in your blog is useful to you audience and not just some rehashed information they will come back again. Keep on subject and narrow the subject for example Florida vacations covers way too much for a single subject. Narrowing it down to say Keys vacations is more targeted then write using Keys keywords to a target audience that is interested in Keys vacations by staying in your niche and focused. Using Keys vacations as an example starting out with 30 to 50 posts of good content your next step will be finding similar blogs with related content. Begin by posting good quality articles in response to or to add to the articles on the other’s blogs. At the end of your posts you are allowed a resource box to backlink to your own blog which will direct even more visitors to your blog. Use back-linking strategies to raise your page rank the more backlinks the higher the search engines with rank your pages. Post articles on article publishing sites related to your niche. Posting related comments in forums where a resource box is allowed with your link back to your blog. By getting your blog in front of as many eyes as possible from articles and ads and getting the page ranking up in the search engines will increase your website’s page views. It takes a little work in the beginning with new articles and fresh content to keep a fresh flow of visitors. But once it has taken off and you stick to your strategy and keep the content flowing. Then Make Money Blogging becomes a reality with a successful online thriving business. |
