Blogging Your Way To Prosperity

By Phil Guye


You create a niche blog that's of great interest to a very specific audience. Then you monetize your blog in one or more of the subsequent ways:

By advertising your very own products to the people who visit your blog every week or even daily.

By advertising affiliate products and programs (i.e., other people's products).

By means of promoting CPA (cost per action) offers, where you get a commission every time your visitors perform a specific action such as filling out a form

By means of utilizing Google AdWords, where you earn cash each time an individual merely clicks on an ad on your site.

By means of asking for and accepting donations on your blog. (Don't discount this tactic - there are several famous bloggers who make over $100,000 annually almost entirely through donations.)

Therefore, just how do you go about starting a blog that can bring you $10,000 monthly? Here is an overview of the basic yet profitable process:

1)First, pick a hungry market. They should not just be hungry for information (so that they'll read your blog), but they must also be ready and enthusiastic to put money down to resolve their problems or otherwise improve their lives. Determine what they're already purchasing (that will help you decide how to monetize your blog).

2)Second, investigate the competition. Check out the active, well-liked as well as profitable blogs in your niche to determine what makes them so popular and busy. Then find out how you can set your blog apart to make it better.

3)Next, purchase a domain at NameCheap, GoDaddy or elsewhere that displays the main topic of your own blog.

4)Fourth, go to WordPress.org and download the most recent version of the blogging software. Install and customize it.

5)Next, begin blogging! Fill your blog initially with about 10 posts, so your early visitors have the impression that you possess quite popular blog having great content. After that commit to updating your own blog at least two or three times a week. If appropriate, you may also want to update it daily.

Quick Tip: You don't have to sit by your blog every single day and manually revise it. You can pre-load content and "drip" it to your visitors on a pre-set schedule. You can do this by means of either loading up the content and setting it for a future posting date, or by buying autoblogging software that does all the work for you.

Here is what else you should know to start getting visitors or traffic and earning money:

Optimize your posts for the search engines like google by means of making articles around specific keywords. You can utilize WordTracker or any keyword tool to find out what niche keywords your market is currently looking for.

"Tag" each of your posts using relevant keywords. WordPress enables you to add tags (keywords) automatically when you're posting your articles. You can also use your keywords as your category titles.

Ping the blog directories as necessary so that they crawl your site whenever you create a new post. If you're using WordPress, it pings the sites instantly. In any other case, you can use a service like pingoat.com.

Lastly, you need to create content that gets individuals coming back to your site again and again. You may create articles such as:

"Top ten" lists. Make a number of helpful top ten lists, and your blog will end up the "go to" place for niche-specific information. For instance, a weight loss site might list the top ten diet programs, the very best 10 fat burners, the top 10 workouts, the top 10 fat-burning meals and so forth.

Product reviews within your niche. Make sure to list the merchandise defects as well as the good points, as complete honesty encourages trust... and sales! Be sure to use your affiliate link.

Controversial articles that go viral. Don't be afraid to polarize your market. You could repel some individuals, but you'll pull your target audience closer to you.

Highly helpful content (the type of content that others are selling).

Strong viewpoint articles (which can often make a hype). Go on and get enthusiastic while having a strong stand.

Articles that join conversations already happening in your niche. If you take a different standpoint or form a strong viewpoint, individuals will migrate to your own blog just because you're providing something unique.

Answers to frequently asked questions. (Just visit blogs in your niche to determine what types of questions people are regularly asking.)

And anything at all that sets your blog posts apart and gets individuals talking and linking to your own blog.
