Blog Income, What You Need To Do

Blogs can be a source of income as well as being fun to work at. The fun part is finding what you want to write about. Anything that interests you can be the theme of your blog. Pick something that you know about, are interested in and that you feel will have a lot of topics to write about. The first step is going to be writing so have fun with it!

Setting up the income part, it is a little more involved. What you will need to get started is:

A blog! Sign up for a blog. You can do this at no cost. Once you have a blog just follow the instructions given and create the look and features of your blog.

You should consider adding a Meta tag in the html editor of your blog. Some search engines use it for information and ranking of your site.

Find advertisers to place on your blog. If you have a favorite product or service, check their website for an affiliates link. Sometimes it is located on the very bottom of the page. Follow the instructions given to get an ad for your page. There are also mass advertising selections you can get at sites like Pay Dot. Choose the ads that you yourself think are the best for your site. Ask yourself if you would click on the ads you chose.

The most important part, and probably the most time consuming, is finding ways to get your site seen. To get your site seen, link to as many directories as you can (you can list your site in these), write articles (most let you add your URL in a resource box) and get yourself into the main search engines. Google, MSN, and Yahoo are essential. There are many free directories on the Internet. If you want to pay to have this done there are service sites that will put your site in directories for you.

If all of this is seems like Martian talk to you or you are new to the concept, I highly recommend this Profit Article site: http://paydotcom.com/r/40669/greatb/2997784
