Make Money Blogging

Making money blogging is a real and viable way to make some serious money online! You're not alone though. There is about 50 million blogs currently in existence and about 2 blogs get created each second of every day. So if you're going to try and make any money doing it your content must be UNIQUE and RELEVANT.

Don't get me wrong, unique content is good, but you can't write about something so obscure that no one cares about it. To get readers and ultimately clicks on your ads you need to get very creative in your approach. Think about the things you know a lot about, or are very passionate about, and think of a unique angle on it, or in other words, a blog "niche." A good question to ask yourself after each blog, would you read it?

Blog niches are important because if you create a blog about sports cars for instance and your key words are "sport cars," "fast," and "engines" you'll be competing with everyone else with those keywords about a very broad topic. Not a good chance of getting noticed.

Blogging is very dynamic. Like I said it's difficult to get found in the proverbial haystack of the internet. Therefore, you have to diversify your efforts. Creating unique content, appropriate key words, and submitting to search engines is only half the battle. The other challenge is getting search engines to notice your content. To do that you must show them that other people are linking to it, commenting on it, liking it, recommending it, and so on to show your site has value.

You do this by creating articles on Ezine.com, posting on valuable high PR Do Follow social network sites like Digg, Technorati, and Slashdot.

Another good thing to do is tweet about your blogs and posts on twitter, post videos on youtube about your blog, post those videos on your blog, and think of anything else creative you can to promote your blogs. Remember that search engines hate new content and love old trusted linked to, liked, shared content. So remember you won't make money blogging overnight. Get your blogs linked to as many other sources as you can an search engines will reward you with higher rankings.

To monetize your blogs, you could start your own website, that way you can put any ads you like on there. If you have a great idea right off the bat this may be a good idea, but more realistically you want to experiment on a free blogging service to see what works and to post adsense ads on your site right away. I recommend Blogger.com but use one that you prefer.
