BLOGGING
Blogging is a form of art, of expression, of advertising, of making friends, of making money. First thing you have to keep in mind when creating blogs is to consider your viewer/reader, your purpose and your content or topic. Although it is a form of expression, profanities and proper use of words are to be well paid attention to.
First of all let us know what a blog is. The word blog is an abbreviation of the word weblog. It is an online diary where you regularly add content just like writing in your diary. The content may vary depending on your interest and purpose. So if your purpose is to make money, your content would be written in a business flat form or perspective and not from your personal point of view. Blogs can contain text, links, music, images, videos or any other kind of digital media. The entries are listed chronologically so it means that the newest post is always on top of the page. The difference of blogs from your regular diary is that visitors can leave comments or links on the same page as the content.
There are three best points you have to remember when starting or beginning a blog:
First: Choose a Main topic of your blog. The topic should be something that interest you most and you have some knowledge of. The broader your topic the better so you can later promote more affiliate products on the same blog if your purpose is to make money from it. Include that broad topic in your URL or in your domain name.
Second: Join affiliate programs or register to different other money making sites that you can promote in relation to your topic. You can link this to you post or incorporate the ready materials into your blog. There are affiliate programs for free but it is better to join affiliate programs that offer monthly subscription as it will increase your profits every month.
Third: Build a list. A list is a collection of email addresses used to promote your affiliate programs. Build your list by writing a free weekly newsletter and offering as opt-in on your blog. You can also promote your blog by writing articles and submitting them to article directories. Be sure to refer or direct your readers back to your blog. Promote your blog.
Now let’s know the typical contents of a blog:
1. Post date
2. Categories/y
3. Title
4. Main body
5. RSS or track back
6. Comments
7. Optional Items
8. A Footer
Get a domain and a webhost for your site. If you cannot afford to pay for a domain and a webhosting site, don’t worry, there are many free blog hosting sites you can get started with. I recommend you register at blogger.com or weebly.com. Now that is setup and done I suggest you to monetize your blog by registering at google adsense. Income from blogging depends on how dedicated you are. Write things you are passionate about and do it regularly. Be unique. Socializing with other bloggers will give you more visitors to your blog.
How else will you earn from you blog besides the google adsense? Sell advertising space. Others prefer text advertising or text links instead of banner advertisements. Other bloggers earn by writing paid reviews.
Blogging is not an overnight get rich home base business. Always promote and update you blog to attract more readers and potential customers to affiliate programs you are promoting in your articles or post. Some or many bloggers increase their income and are on their way to a better life because they put a little sweat equity and patience into their blog.
Dedication, perseverance and continuous search to better your blog are the key to your success in blogging.
