HOW TO START A BLOG

HOW TO START A BLOG

Yo, have you even heard of a weblog or a blog, weblogs or blogs? If you have, then you should be familiar with blogging at blogspot, -the Google blogger -  and perhaps even know how to make a blog. But if you haven't and you wish to make easy money online, read further and I will show you how. I started out when I was retrenched. 

The bills were coming in and I had no idea how I was going to make ends meet. Everyone seem to be making money online, which frustrated me bigtime because the internet was inundated with get rich quick schemes all of them wanting me to venture money that I don't have. Perhaps, you can relate to my situation. To cut a long story short, I decided  to start an AdSense blog. So without over thinking it, I started writing blogs for money. 

Most people searching for blog sites look for ways to make money online but the best blog sites teach blogging and diligence because the money will soon follow, surely but slowly. I must emphasise slowly because no blogger became rich overnight and I will tell you why.

BLOG HOSTING

When you start a blog - which you get absolutely free at www.Blogger.com - you begin with a single page blog that you will monitize and hope surfers will visit. Bearing in mind this single page blog will carry a maximum of three adverts which Google Adsense displays on your blogs. 

Because its a new page you would be very lucky if you get more than 20 visits on its published date which again depends on the subject. To get visitors to see you blog site you need to submit it to Google's Search Engine and after their spiders index your blog site it will be searchable. This can take several weeks. 

In the most unlikely event that  500 visitors land on your blog site and each stay for 1 minute, then the amount of money that you would have made is miniscule because of the media billing rule called CPM. CPM stands for clicks per thousand (M represents 1000 in Roman numerals). Google CPM is 5 cents.

Before you say I'm wasting your time and that this is no way how to make money fast, consider what would happen if the single blog page became 100 pages over a period of time while you stared at minimum 10 other blog topics which will eventually each have a 100 pages. 

Suddenly you have 1000 pages with a total of 3000 ads. If you blogs become popular you will get thousands of visitors per month. You will be paid for page visits and  when visitors click on those ads attached to your pages,  Google Adsense will pay you a percentage of the revenue they make from those advertisers ads.

Initially it would be a little but after a few years you could be getting an income greater than the average person working 40 hours per week. I need to emphasise, do not click on your ads attached to your blog sites because every mouse click is monitored and recorded by analytical software run by Google. 

If you are found to click on your ads, Google will expel you from the Adsense program and never allow you back. Initially you will sign an undertaking that you will not click on your ads and honesty is the best policy.

Now its time for you to 'start your own blog' In the next blog we will discuss 'blogging sites', bloggs,
