Make money blogging is not as difficult as you might have thought. Thanks to easy to use Content Management Systems like Wordpress, Drupal, Typepad, Live Journal, etc, you can make a blog of yourself in a matter of minutes. You can also choose from a large amount of free themes and plugins to make your blog appealing to the eye and capable of multi functions.
Write a couple of articles or pasting other blogger’s works, and embedding ads or promote affiliate programs on your blogs are easy to implement. Just apply an Adsense or Yahoo Publisher Network account, join a couple of affiliate programs, copy and paste the code at your desired places through the theme editing interface and you are done.
The next step will be getting traffic to your blog, and lots of it! You can generate backlinks through lots of methods such as leaving comments on other peoples’ blog posts, add your link in forum signatures, or even buy backlinks from high Page Rank websites or blogs. Now relax and wait for visitors and sales.
Not much? Only 1 dollar per day from your blog? “I can make 100 blogs like this so I’ll make $100 each day”, you might think. Yes, you can repeat the above process one hundred times but you will not likely make the $100 per day.
Because the search engines, as well as real readers, don’t like splogs like these. They will be lost in the SERPs if they got indexed at all. Traffic is never sustainable for blogs using other people’s content due to Google’s duplicate content penalty.
Write your own articles, provide quality info, let your visitors know your own experience on certain topics, and only focus on 1, two, or maximum 3 blogs. That way you will make that a hundred dollar each day and enjoy yourself during the process. In order to make money from blogs, you must provide quality information first. Trust me, it’s much easier to make money blogging from one or 2 quality blogs than from one hundred spammy blogs!
