Start Your Blog Today

Start your blog today by following the tips below.You will not regret it.

Choose a Topic and Goal for Your Blog

What will you blog about? You can blog about anything you choose, but when you're assessing a topic, ask yourself what the primary goal for the blog will be. Sometimes the goal comes first. For example, if you intend using the blog as a writing portfolio, then that will be the blog's only goal.Start another blog if you want to blog about something else.

Stick to the Topic and Remember Your Goal
Once your blog gets readers, they'll be annoyed to discover that your blog about dog health has suddenly morphed into a blog about low carb diets. Once you choose a topic for your blog, stick to it.
Tip: expect to make several false starts before you settle on a blog topic you love, define goals which get you excited, and develop a blogging routine.

Be Positive at All Times
Writers tend to complain about the writing life. Please don't do it on your blog

Create an "About" Page With a Bio
Your readers want to know who you are. Tell them.

Be Consistent: Choose a Schedule and Stick to It
Will you blog once or several times a day, a couple of times a week.
Stick to a schedule; your readers will appreciate it.

Content Comes First, then Promotion
Once you've written ten posts, promote your blog, but keep adding content too.

Set Blogging Goals to Match Your Writing Goals
A blog can help you to achieve your writing goals. After you've been blogging for three months, assess where you want to go in your writing, and make a blogging plan.

For example, let's say you want to be published in Magazine X. Announce this goal on your blog. Report on queries you've sent to the magazine. Yes, the editor will read your blog post, and then your query. Sneaky, eh? (Note: this only works if your blog is about your writing, so if your blog isn't, start a new "my writing" blog.)

Realize That Your Entire Blog Is a "Writing Sample"
This means: spell check and proofread.

Review Your Goals Every Six Months
Your goals will change as you blog. Set new goals often.

Leverage Your Blog: It's a Business Asset
You can leverage any blog in many ways.
* Write a book based on your blog entries;
* Get more clients via your blog (as your blog gets indexed in the search engines you'll get more traffic);
* Make money on your blog in various ways;
* Sell your blog for a fast blast of cash. You can even create "niche" blogs on popular topics for the sole purpose of selling them.

Now that you have read these tips I suggest you go ahead and start blogging.You do not need to implement all the above tips but keep them at the back of your mind for when you are ready.Belive me you will get the feel of when you are ready for the next step.

New Year's Resolution for 2009

Happy New Year!!!!
It's this time of the year again.The time where we look back and see what we did right and what we did wrong and then make resolutions for the new year to do more of the right things and less of the bad things.
I am going to list all my money making activities and make lists from best to worst of the following:
how much money I made
how enjoyable is the activity
how little time I spent on each activity

and then I am going to concentrate on the activities that appear in the top 5 of all 3 lists.

One thing I will keep though is the article writing even though I spend a lot of time on that,cannot track how much money I make but it is No 1 for enjoyment.Alas,some things you just have to do for pure pleasure.

How to choose the best "earn money online" program

There are so many earn money online programs out there that it is very difficult to decide which one to choose and which ones actually work.
Make sure that the make money online program that you choose has the following to offer:

1-a money back guarantee

2- It is very important that the program offers learning methods on many ways on how to make money online.The aim is to be an online marketer and gradually develop towards a field which you find suits your needs and while doing so gain a vast knowledge on the Internet and its workings.

3-provides productivity tools,manuals,software and articles that are constantly maintained and updated.

4-provides practical tasks which you have to perform in the learning process

5-tutorials are based on first hand experience of the techniques involved

6-gives access to a blog with updates,advice,direction and tips

7-video tutorials.These are very easy to follow as they contain screenshots which makes learning faster.

8-offers you already set up money making websites that you can start earning from while you go about the process of learning how the Internet works.

9-do a search on review earn money online programs".Visit a few forums and see what others are saying.
10-Finally make sure that support is provided
Once you have made a short list of the earn-money-online programs which fit the above criteria I would suggest running them through Alexa so you can finalise your decision.

Alexa Ranking Tool
Alexa is a very powerful tool used to rank web site traffic. Find out how all the make money online programs rank compared to each other. This is one of the most accurate freely available tools to find out how well a site ranks up against millions of other sites on the Web.

Remember: "The lower the Alexa ranking number the more heavily visited the site.".
Some examples are:

amazon.com (rank 14); weather.com (rank 64); cnn.com (rank 26); google.com (rank 5); Yahoo.com (rank 1).

These rankings are generally consistent with the amount of traffic they have.
A ranking under 100 000 is considered good.This would tell you that many people visit this site.

The Alexa Ranking Tool also provides statistics as to which % of people from which countries are using this website.This further enhances the tool as you can see if people from your country are using this website which makes it more compatible to your individual needs.

It has been noted that the Alexa Ranking Tool results is slightly skewed as it only measures visitors with the Alexa Toolbar installed,What needs to be further noted is that most webmasters have this toolbar installed and this is the quality traffic you actually need to measure for the abovementioned exercise.
NB:Should you decide to blog for money some paid blogging sites such as ReviewMe,Text Link Ads and Sponsored Reviews are just three of the networks which base your ad selling strength on Alexa Ranks.

Bear in mind that despite the problems mentioned above with the Alexa Ranking Tool it is still the best way to check out rankings on the web.It is not 100% foolproof but will still give you the unfair advantage in getting that extra bit of information required before making an investment into the best earn-money-online program for you
