Blogging for Cash

The blogging revolution has arrived, and it seems like everyone
is blogging about something. Sometimes they blog about specific
topics dear to their heart, some use their blogs as a sort of
personal journal. Some use their blogs to gripe and complain
about things that bug them. And a great many enterprising souls
are simply blogging for cash.

What? Cash?

Yes, blogging for cash. Did I get your attention? Good. I’ll bet
you want to know how one goes about blogging for cash.

Well, even though there are millions of people blogging, they
aren’t all blogging for cash. Of the ones that are blogging for
cash, a great many simply don’t know what they are doing, and
they aren’t making any money at it…not enough to matter anyway.
But you can start blogging for cash – the right way – in just a
very few minutes!

First, make a list of topics that interest you a great deal. You
are going to be spending a lot of time with this topic, so pick
something you at least know a little about and are willing to
learn more about, or something that you are an expert on.

With that list, go to http://7search.com/scripts/searchterms/top_paying.asp

to see what the highest paying keywords are. Do any of your
topics match any of those keywords? If not, look at those
keywords, and try to pick one that you can ‘talk’ about.

You’ll notice that the top paying keywords are mostly about
gambling and prescription drugs. In most cases, you don’t want to
write about those topics, so keep going down the list until you
find something that interests you…something you can write about.

If you don’t find anything on that list that toots your horn,
visit Yahoo Search Marketing at http://www.overture.com and use
their resources to find high paying keywords, or to find out how
popular the topics on your list are.

Writing a blog is much like talking. You simply write just like
you talk. A blog is for expressing your views and opinions, or to
share your knowledge with others. So you would write it just like
you would say it.

Now, you know the big secret about how to blog…that’s how. The
only technical thing you need to do is to include your keywords
when you write and check for spelling and grammar mistakes before
you hit the ‘submit’ or ‘post’ button.

Once you have your topic, it is time to set up a blog. There are
countless places online where you can set up a blog for free.

If you have a website, you can set up a blog on your website as
well. Check with your web host to see what blogging software they
include with your hosting account.

If you don’t have a website – and many successful bloggers don’t
– get a blog through a site such as www.blogger.com .

No matter which blogging method you choose, just make sure that
you will be able to edit the templates for the blog – in order to
add your money making ads. This is very important!

Choose a name for your blog carefully. Use your topic in the
title. For instance, if you are blogging about Motorcycling, your
blog might be named “Awesome Motorcycle Routes In New York”. Make
sure your topic keywords are part of the title of your blog.

Now, go find some affiliate programs that fit in with your topic.
A good place to start looking is at http://www.cj.com.

After signing up for programs choose text links and banner ads
that you can use on your blog. You can use the text links
throughout the content of your blog, and use the banners along
the borders of the blog pages.

After you’ve made several posts, you are ready to sign up for a
Google AdSense account, if you don’t already have one. As long as
your blog isn’t on a topic that Google doesn’t like, your blog
will most likely be approved.

Edit your template again to include the Google AdSense ads, and
make sure that you are using your targeted keywords when you
write. Now, you are officially blogging for cash.

You will need to build up a following – or a readership – for
your blog. Make sure that each time you make a post to your blog
you visit Pingoat at: http://www.pingoat.com/ and submit your
blog.

Also make sure that you list your blogs URL in the search
engines, and create a signature file to use when sending out
emails, or posting to newsgroups, discussions lists, or forums.
A blog is pretty much promoted just like a website.

It may take some time to build up your readership, but if you
keep writing terrific posts, you stay focused on your target
market, and you promote your blog as much as possible, you will
start realizing a profit. The longer you do it, and the more
work you put into it, the more money you will make when you
start blogging for cash!
