Home Business Ideas For MOMs!

If you are looking for a way to start making money on the internet, and you are on a small budget, blogging is a great way to get started.

Blogging has become very popular and it is free.  You don’t need any technical skills to get started.  If you can write, you can blog.

A blog is a simple web page that anyone can setup in minutes.  People use them as journals, diaries, and sales pages, like you will learn to do here.

You many be wondering how you can make money with a blog. The answer is by adding Google Adsense and promoting affiliate products.

You will not make money overnight with this system, but over 2 or 3 months, you can expect to start making some decent money.  Remember, cost for all of this can be absolutely nothing.

You can use Blogger, which is owned by Google.  Blogs are crawled by the search engines regularly, so that they get indexed very quickly.

Getting Started:

It is always best to try and make money from what you know.  It is far easier to write about what you know than try to make money writing about other things.  However, having said that you can find free content on almost anyu subject using  public domains and PLR’s.  You can also use ezine articles and place them as content into your website.  If you decide to use other people’s articles as a source of content, just be sure to include their name as the original author.  You pick a topic that you think would be profitable.

Adsense Research:

Start by finding how much the maximum bid s for a keyword.  Please note that you will not likely get anything close to his value as this is only showing the highest bid.  The visitor may click on lower paying ads.  Also, there are two types of PPC advertising.  They can advertise on the “Search Network” and/or the “Content Network”.  If they don’t advertise in the content network, the ads won’t show on your site.  This is the best information we have, so it will give you a general idea of the kind fo money available for a particular keyword.

You also need to find out the competition for your selected keywords.  This is a bit labor intensive and I will show you a way in another article.

Go HERE and enter the keyword or key phrase that you are targeting for your niche.  For example, if you are targeting “credit card”, you would key enter the keyword into the text box provided.  You want a keyword with over 1000 searches per month.

Now, take those same keywords and go to www.google.com and type “allintitle: keyword”.  This will give you an idea of the competition.

What you are looking for is high monthly traffic with the lowest number of volume or competition.

Once you find a keyword the fits this criteria, this is the keyword or key phrase that will get you listed high in the search engines and give you better results.

Finding Content For Your Blog:

You can find free content for your blogs at article sites.  You must follow the rules outllined in the article site.  Again, this usually means the author’s contact information and links in place.  Below is a list of links to article sites:

http://www.goarticles.com
http://www.articlecity.com
http://members.tripod.com/buckcreek
http://www.Fripp.com/articles.html
http://www.arcanaweb.com/resources/article-directories.html
http://www.articledepot.co.uk
http://www.dotcomwomen.com/free-content.shtml
http://www.valuablecontent.com

You can also use public domain sites, PLR’s, outsource or write your own articles.

Once you have found content, you will need to modify it to fit your keyword.  For instance, if your ideal keyword is “new york car insurance”, you should include the keyword phrase “New York car insurance”.  While you’re doing this, make sure that the content still makes sense.  If not, reword it so that it makes sense.  You should also sprinkle the article with 2 or 3 relevant keywords to the term “New York car insurance”; such as, car insurance, new york, or car, and insurance.

Creating A Blog:

Blogger is a good blog tool to start with.  As you become more advanced in blogging you might want to look into using WordPress.org and getting a hosting service; such as, Godaddy, HostGator, etc.

To get started with Blogger, go to http://blogger.com and create an account.  I will not go into details on using Blogger.  They do have excellent tutorials at http://help.blogger.com.  YOu can play around with it until you become more comfortable with it.
Once you have created an account, create a new blog using your selected key phrase as your Blogger sub-domain.  For instance, if you use car insurance and “new car insurance” was the key phrase we found to fit our criteria during your keyword research stage, your blogger sub-domain would be something like:

http://new-your-car-insurance.blogspot.com or

http://newyorkcarinsurance.blogspot.com

Select a template to use.  Set the Blog title to be exactly as the same as your keyword phrase.  In our example, this would be “New York Car Insurance”.  Create a description that contains the key phrase in it at least once.

Make your first post to your blog using the content you modified earlier.  If you don’t have an Adsense account, apply for one now at: http://google.com/adsense . Apply using the url to your new Blog. Once approved, make sure you paste your Adsense into places where viewers are likely to click, and make sure you blend them in by setting the background color to be the same as the background color of your blog template.

Go to http://clickbank.com , http://cj.com , and http://paydotcom.com and create accounts.  Find affiliate programs for high-quality products in your niche.  Create affiliate links for these products and insert them into your sidebar on the template where it says “Links”.  Periodically, post full update with an advertisement that explains the benefits of a particular product.

Post another piece of private label content every 2 days.  Search formus with related content – qoute and link to pertinent information about your niche.

Insert links to other blogs, related news, videos, etc at the bottom of each post using your key phrase somewhere in teh anchor text of the link.

Get Your Blog Listed On Search Engines And In Top Blog Directories:

Once you have posted your first piece of private label content, inserted your adsense ads, etc, it is time to promote your blog.
Go to http://www.masternewmedia.org/rss/top55 and submit your blog to as many of these blog and rss feed directories as possible.  Some of them may not accept you blog.  Use your key phrase in the title and at least once i the description if you are able to enter one.  This is going to take a number of hours of effort but it will be well worth it.

Go to http://yahoo.com and setup an account.  Add your RSS feed to your “My Yahoo” account as a news feed you want to monitor.

You will need to add RSS beta to your My Yahoo content if you don’t have it.  For more information on how, go to :

http://my.yahoo.com/s/rss-faq.html and add it.

You will now add your blog ito the RSS feed in my yahoo.  To do that, click on edit in the RSS feed section.  Enter your url to your blog.

Go to MSN.com and create an account and repeat what was done for Yahoo.  To do that, enter your blog url and “atom.xml” appended to the end of it where it says, “search for content to add”.

Submit your blog to:

http://submit.search.yahoo.com/free/request
http://www.google.com/addurl/?continue=/addurl
http://beta.search.msn.com/docs/submit.aspx

Go to http://pingoat.com/ and submit your blog.  Remember to use your key phrase in the title and at least once in the description.  Repeat “the Ping” every time you post new content to your blog.

Monitor Your Search Engine Rankings:

Once you have been indexed by search engines, check periodically your blog’s rankings within its niche.  You do this by searching on the key phrase you used for optimization.

If you picked a penetrable niche, you should be able to get onto the first page (at least on Yahoo) within a month, but if not, you will need to:

Search out link partners in your niche and setup reciprocal links.  Simple find high-ranking websites in your niche on Google and Yahoo and offer to exchange links with them.

Now, you can apply what you learned here and use it for other niche blogs.

If you don’t have any private label content to use for your first blog, you can purchase some form Warrior Forum at an excellent rate and there are other resources that you can get them from; such as Niche Empires.

There are lots of tools and other resources that you can use to help with your blogging.  Just keep in mind that building success on the internet, is a process.  Just practice what you are taught and continue to do this and you will see improvement in your results and in your bank account.

Much Success…

Even though affiliate marketing is an excellent way to earn money, there are several pitfalls that you’ll need to be aware of.  As long as people have been earning money, people have also tried to figure out how to earn more by doing a lot less.

All you need to do is a quick online search for “work from home” or “making easy money”.  You’ll instantly find millions of websites, simply click on a few and you’ll notice that they all start off the same.  You’ll see a guy with a big house and a lot of money saying if you sign up, this could be you – how far from the truth!

The only way you can earn a good, stable income is to put in the hard work it takes.  Before you join any affiliate program, you need to do the proper research.  That’s one of the best benefits of the internet – finding the information you need.

All you need to do is search for the name of the affiliate program that your interested in, adding the word scam to it and see what pops up.  You should also join some work from home forums, and don’t be afraid to ask the right questions.

There are a few ways that you can tell what program is most likely a scam.  If a program doesn’t tell you their compensation plan unless you sign up, watch out.  A lot of programs won’t tell you what you’ll be doing unless you buy a kit for a set price.

With any program, there should always be 100% free disclosure.  You’ll need to know what you are going to be doing before you even start.  If a program doesn’t tell you what you are going to be doing or if you have to pay money first, you should avoid it.
