IS IT POSSIBLE FOR YOU TO MAKE MONEY ON YOUR FREE BLOG?

One of the main reasons for this blog is to be able to teach bloggers one or two things on how to run their blogs or network of blogs successfuly. In this post i will be doing just that. I came across an article that i think bloggers will find useful and intresting. Just enjoy it and leave any comment you might have.

HERE IS THE POST; I HOPE YOU WILL FIND IT INSIGHTFULL
It seems like blogging is becoming increasingly more popular lately. Along with the popularity, many have discovered that they can "cash in" and actually make money while doing something they love. Others have turned it into a full time job and make a very good living at it.

There are two kinds of blogs. The first kind is the hosted blog on your own site where the user installs a script and sets everything up. Many hosting companies today have wizards that will walk you through the process with little to no experience. The other type of blog, the one I will be focusing on in this article are free blogs.

If you are on a very small or zero budget, you are probably looking for a way to start making money on the internet, this is an excellent way to start. I continue to make a steady income with some free blog sites I set up when I first started. Enough of the fluff, let's get down to the nuts and bolts.

Where To Start

There are several free blogs available today where you can set up for free. Two of the most popular are Word Press and Blogger. Both of these sites will allow you to create a blog for free.

First, determine how you are going make your money. Are you going to promote products through affiliate links, Google AdSense or both. I personally always do both. Why? If the visitor doesn't click on my product I am trying to sell, maybe they will click on one of the Ads where I will still get a portion of the money.

1. Start by finding a couple of affiliate products that you would like to try and sell and that will give you a good idea of what to name your blog and set it up. Once created, post at least 6 articles to your blog regarding the product or products you are trying to promote.

2. Next is setting up AdSense. If you search for this on Google, you will find all of the information needed to get you going or if you chose Blogger to create your site, they have a built in wizard and no further setup is needed.

3. Make sure you have all of your affiliate links set up

4. Submit your blog to as many feed directories as possible.

5. Comment in social forums leaving your anchor and creating a backlink.

6. Sign up for a free account with Yahoo and add your RSS to the feed. You can do this under the "My account" section.

7. Go to MSN, create an account and set up your RSS feed with them

8. Continue to post at least one article per day for the first week. (Depending on the niche you selected, you may already start to see some action)

Keep in mind that it can take anywhere from a few days to a few weeks to start seeing action on your site. Once the traffic starts to come in, you can reduce your postings to once a week and eventually they will be on autopilot. I make money with free blogs I set up over two years ago and they have not been touched in well over a year.

Good luck to you and happy blogging.
