Good day mates. I thought that today I would make a short no-nonsense post on how I can make money online. Now, I am not going to lie to you and claim that I make thousands of dollars per day, but my income from online is starting to get up to about $100 per day.. not bad for me. This is really something that anyone can do and all it takes is a bit of effort. Okay, maybe more that a 'bit'.
Keep in mind that I did not make any money whatsoever for about the first six months or so. Oh sure, the occasional five or ten bucks per month but it really didn't become a consistent source of money until about four months ago. Here is all it takes, at least to get started. Before we get too far along, I want to say that you should not rely on one source of information to educate yourself. Nobody can give you all the answers, but you can certainly learn pieces from each individual. I learned most of what I know about how I can earn money online from Griz, Vic, and Courtney; three names that you should familiarize yourself with if you have not already done so.
How Can I make Money Online? First step is to get a blog. I like to use blogger, and for several reasons: it is free, it is search engine friendly, it is easy to work with, and is sufficiently customizable. Creating a blog should not be the first thing that you do, however.
The very first thing that you should do is to research the keywords that you will be targeting. Use the Google Adwords Keyword tool (google it) for this if you do not have other software. It is also free to use. Try to select a keyword or key phrase that receives a fair amount of searches but don't get greedy. Usually, the more a keyword or key phrase is searched for, the more competition there will be for it. Example: do not pick 'knitting' because you will never make it to page one with that general terms as there are already over 5,000,000 sites on that. Instead, hone it down to a very specific subsidiary of knitting, such as 'free best cross-stitching patterns' or something of that nature. The reason that you want to select your key phrases first is because you will want to put those keywords IN your blog title and in your headings. I suggest selecting two or three that are all closely related. Do this tonight and create your blog based on your key phrase.
Next post we will talk about how to fill up your blog with good content and then we will talk about promoting it so that you can get people to come visit your site.
