Is there
any other way for you to earn money aside from that slow Paid-to-Click method?
Ofcourse there are a lot of things that you can do online to earn money. In one
of my posts I told you that you can earn money by PTC, online job or
freelancing, affiliate, and blogging. Now, I will discuss with you how to earn
money just by blogging.
Now, the first
thing that you have to know about blogging is the pros, cons and things that
you should know first before starting to make a blog.
Earning
money using blog is not easy, you have to start slowly to gain visitors and
gain money. You also should have a creative mind in creating articles and
pages. Most importantly, you should have passion and love in blogging. If you
do not have this so-called passion, you will end up giving up or neglecting
your blog. Granting that you have these qualities, how much can you earn? You
can earn at least a hundred dollars if you have a lot of traffic or visitors.
The main reason why you will earn by blogging is because of advertisements
mainly google adsense. You might have read or heard this google adsense
somewhere and wondered what it was. Well, these are ads paid by business people
to be placed in your website. If a visitor clicked it you may or may not earn.
Also, google is very strict with accepting and maintaining websites. Your
account, including all your earnings, will be cancelled if you violated their
terms. I had two accounts cancelled twice only because there are bomb clickers
or those who purposely click so many ads to destroy your blog. Google does not
really care for reasons when it comes to adsense.
Now that you
have those warnings, it’s time for the real deal which are CREATING a blog and
APPLYING to google adsense to earn money.
HOW TO
START A BLOG
First, sign
up for a free blog website like blogger which is owned by google. I recommend
this personally because its easy to use. It does not have so many options and
design but it’s easy to use for beginners and the features are substantial. You
may create a website using yola, wordpress, tumblr, or others but I have no
tips for them yet. Anyway, now that you registered for an account think of what
really interest you which can also interest others such as handicraft,
travelling, anything. If you have thought of the main topic that you want to
talk about think of a good name for your blog. Make sure that it is related to
your topic. If your topic is about fashion or cars use blog address such as
todaysfashion.blogspot.*om or trendycars.blogspot.*om do not use addresses such
as mycuteface.blogspot.*com or hotgrandma.blogspot.*om. Who will take you
seriously with those titles really? So use a name which gives an idea about
your blog.
Now that
you have a blog, start writing your own article. I remembered the first time
that I learned how to make a blog that is when I read an article “paano kumita
ng pera gamit ang internet” or how to earn money using the internet, I
apologize to the writer coz I forgot his name. According to him, just write
anything but make sure that you take note of this:
1. Make an interesting blog about your
hobby or about something that interest you, I mean if that topic interest you
there will be other persons which find that article interesting too.
2. Make sure that you use proper
keywords, keywords mean words which will be possibly searched in theinternet.
For example, how to earn money using your cellphone this topic is likely
to be searched compared to eating dog meat or how to cook wood. The latter
title might not be searched at all. SSo be mindful of you readers.
Aside from those tips mentioned, it
was stated that you should create your niche or main topic. For example, if
your blog is about cars stick to cars all your life. I disagree with that tip
because blogging is about introducing your knowledge and ideas to others and
surely what you know is not limited to those things. My suggestion is that you
also add other topics such as current events and others things that interest
you but never forget the main topic of your blog. Add some spices in your blog.
If you noticed the topics in my blog there are articles which are not really
related to my topic such as games and some other things. I wrote those because
they interest me and I want to share what I know about those things. To my
surprise, those articles had high traffic compared to some of my other
articles. The bottomline is add spices to your main dish even chefs garnish
their food so why can’t you. Many might contradict it but for me it’s a nice
idea. Oh well., I will add more next time, its 10:02 pm and I still have to
read my lessons for tomorrow. See you soon.
