Grizzly's How to Make Money Online for Beginners Posts. Make Money Using Blogs - Lesson 1 Originally Posted, Tuesday, February 6, How to Set Up a Blog on Blogger. Most of these lessons are still applicable but there have been some changes. Rather than re-writing them all from scratch I have added little "Update" sections in March where necessary. If the Make Money Using Blogs posts There are 5 of them seem a little contradictory at times this is the reason why. If I have missed anything or you find something that just doesn't jive please let me know and I will fix it.

Thanks and if at anytime you don't understand something please leave a comment. Note - As of I have removed the final 3 lessons as they are now too outdated to be of use.

I am attempting to spew forth a complete up to date beginners course which should be done as soon as Golf season ends. You probably don't know where to start and it's hard to get anyone who knows what to do to spill the beans. This is by design as letting everyone in on what works and how to do it is thought to be a death blow to all those currently making money online. I don't share this view. There are potentially several billion buyers out there and estimates of about , online marketers.

There is room for every one. If you are starting out, you probably don't know how to go about setting up an online business. You have lots of questions; Do I need a website? Do I buy one or build my own?

How do I build my own? What do I put on my site? How do I find a niche market? What is a niche market? How do I sell stuff? How do I set up adsense? What tools do I need? How do I generate traffic visitors to my site? What's the secret behind making money? I'm sure the list could go on for a while yet. The point is most of you want to know where and how to start an online money making venture.

The trouble is that all the online marketers are only too happy to tell you what to do Everyone has a different scheme for you to try. A sure-fire guaranteed way to get rich! You have heard this enough I'm sure. Who do you trust? Let's get down to the basics, before you start spending money needlessly. Forget about websites, forget affiliate marketing, forget adwords, forget MLM and JV's, forget everything and start from scratch.

Let's start with "Google Adsense" and Blogs. This is the cheapest and fastest way to get started making money online. You can set up a blog for free. Google will provide advertisements for your blog for free. You will earn an immediate commission from Google each time some one clicks an advertisement on your blog. Once you get your blog up and running you can diversify with affiliate marketing and other methods of making money.

A blog is very simple to manage. The new Blogger just out of Beta program owned by Google is a beginners dream as a complete computer illiterate can set up a blog just following the onscreen directions. Once you have a blog you will then learn how to market it - get traffic to your site.

When you have learned how to do this you can transfer this knowledge to websites and other online ventures. A blog will teach you the basics and you can learn without spending gobs of cash in the process.

I'm sure you have seen screenshots of people who are making hundreds of dollars a day from adsense. They earn what they say but beware that they are not telling you the whole story. There are several strategies for making money with Google Adsense but let's look at the two most common. So what is the trick? Using Adwords This is what they don't tell you. A lot of those screen shots show you the money they brought in. They never tell you how much they spent to earn that income.

They always show you the gross, not the net. This doesn't mean that they aren't making a profit - they are or they wouldn't continue day after day - but that their profit is a lot less than they lead you to believe. Using free traffic This is what they don't tell you. This is the best way for a beginner to start out. Build a blog on a particular niche topic , create good quality content for it, have Google index and rank your page high for your keyword topic and sit back as Google sends hordes of visitors to your site.

Finally, count your money from all the Adsense clicks. This is the procedure but they don't tell you that to make serious money at this you will need to create dozens of blogs. Yes, you heard right. Your main blogs will have decent pages addressing the needs of your visitors and suitable for marketing products. The majority of the blogs however, will be set up to simply generate Adsense clicks. The articles will be unique but crappy and visitors that end up on these blogs will quickly leave - hopefully by clicking an ad that will take them to where they were trying to go in the first place.

This is called spam blogging and as unethical as it seems, it is how many people make a lot of money with Adsense. No one talks about this aspect of making adsense profits. No one wants to admit that they use this tactic and yet this is the main method of generating decent money with Adsense with out spending money to get traffic.

This is also the system modified a bit that I recommend to all beginners. It's the cheapest way to start earning cash, it will teach you all the main aspects of Internet marketing and you can start immediately. However, you will have to decide if ethics or making money is your top priority first. We will keep this simple to start.

In future posts I will explain more and more techniques as we go. For now we need to get a few blogs set up. When you have completed this we can begin.

Before creating your blog you will have to find a topic. This is called a niche. There is a lot to learn about finding the right niche but for now just pick a topic you like. Let's learn how to set up a blog before we worry about what kind of blog will make money. I will set up a new blog with you so you can see how I do it. In blogger select Create Account.

Try and use your keyword in the name and the blog address. Use Capitals in your name but only lower-case in blog address. I want to call my blog "Blogger Basics for Beginners" using the following address "http: When I checked the availability I was told this address was already taken.

When this happens try using a dash like this; "Http: As it happens this address is also taken. Next I try this; "Http: The more popular the niche the harder it will be to get an address for your keyword. If you are doing a "shoe" blog I can assure you that all possible "shoe" combination's are gone.

If you are using "Pre-Cambrian Rock Formations" as a keyword you can probably get it for your address. It is important to use your keyword in your Blog's Title and Address. This will greatly help you when it comes to search engine rankings and indexing.

This is a big topic that I won't get into right now - just trust me on this. Fill in the word verification and hit continue. The reason for the word verification is to stop automated programs from setting up thousands of blogs. Basically it is there to stop you from doing what I am going to show you how to do.

Don't worry, it doesn't stop the automated programs, they have evolved to take this delay in hand and let you work around it. It now appears that Blogger has a new flagging system that can catch most auto-software trying to set up multiple accounts. As you can no longer use link farms effectively this is a moot point and you should only be creating blogs per account. Do not use the same keywords in each blog. Don't create related blogs in each account. If you want ten blogs targeted to 1 niche then put each blog on a separate account.

You will now be asked to select a template. Later you can experiment with all the different templates but for now just choose Minima as you will find it easier to follow along with me. It is the first choice and it should already be selected automatically I have found this to be the most professional looking template and I use it frequently.

You are reading this post on a Minima template. It is also perfectly optimized for SEO without having to tweak it. Hit continue to select the Minima Template. Next you will see a page that says "Your Blog has been created". That's all there is to it. Hit "Start Posting" and we will begin the next step. Before posting let's go into "Settings" and make a few customizations. Fill in your description. Make sure you use your keyword at least once in your description.

After your description scroll down the page and hit "Save Settings". Leave them on default. Select the "Publishing" tab. Select "Yes" where it says "Notify Webogs. Select "Formatting" Change "Show" to 1 posts on the main page. Default is 7 Select your time zone. Set "Show Link Field" to Yes.

Leave everything else as is and hit "Save Settings". Select "Comments" Select "Show" for Backlinks. Select "Yes" for Pop up Window. Select "No" for Word Verification. Enter your email for comment notification.

Hit "Save Settings", and leave the rest of the options on default. Select "Archiving" Make sure the frequency is set to "Monthly" and the "Enable Post Pages? Hit "Save Settings" Select "Posting" and we are ready for your first post. You will notice that you have a Title Field, a Link Field, and a big box where you will type in your post. It is important that each and every title you use has a keyword a term you want to rank for in the Title.

Again this relates to SEO - and again just trust me without further explanation at this point. In the link field you want to type in your blog address so that the post links back to your blog your home page or the post page.

My link is typed as follows; http: Replace beginner-blogger-basics with your address. My first post is short and to the point. It will mention my keywords at least twice.

It reads as follows; Welcome to Blogger Basics for Beginners. This site provides tips and techniques for beginning bloggers in order to make money online.

If you have questions not covered in Blogger Basics please feel free to email your question to bla bla bla Make your first post the same way. Use your keywords a couple of times and then hit "Publish". Then hit "View Blog" Congrats - you are now a blogger.

Now you can customize your blog. You will notice that your title is a hypertext link pointing to your site. On the right hand side of the page is a section called "Blog Archive" and below that is an "About Me" section. You can add and remove any section you like by selecting "Customize" from the top right corner of your screen.

I am going to remove the "About Me" section and add a new section for Adsense. Always leave the "Blog Archives" so that visitors can find your previous posts. Select "Customize" Click the edit link on the "About Me" box. I am going to select the "Remove Page Element" option to get rid of this but if you want to keep the "About Me" section just fill in the info boxes and click "Save Changes".

Let's Add a Page Element. From the main customization screen click the link that says "Add a Page Element" Use the right hand column box - not the one on the bottom of the page. You will get a pop-up screen with a lot of Page Elements listed on it. Let's add Adsense to our blogs. Click the Adsense "Add to Blog" button. If you don't have an Adsense account follow the instructions to get one.

You will get a publisher ID from Google that will enable you to post adsense ads on your blog. Once you have this pick a Format and use the Blend Template option regarding colors. As of February , Google requires all blogs using Adsense to post a Privacy Policy on their blogs.

To see what this entails view mine in the sidebar A Very Boring Privacy Policy " For right hand column ads I stick to the x vertical Banner Format. Click "Save Changes" and you will notice that an Adsense box has been added to your right hand column at the top.

Click "View Blog" and see the results. It takes a little while for Google to recognize your content and place corresponding ads on your site. At first you may only see public service ads or nothing until Google figures out your keywords. Just be patient as this is normal. Remember I told you to use your keywords several times in setting up your blog. I did this so that the Google bot will have no problem figuring out what your blog is about.

If your keyword is about something that has advertisements Google will find the ads. If you used the "Pre-Cambrian" keyword you may never get anything but public service ads as I doubt that there are many advertisers selling anything related to this keyword I could be wrong though.

Let's stop for today and let you concentrate on the next lesson. You will have to sit down and write one decent article about your keyword. I can hear you non-writers cringing at the thought Later I will show you how to get unique content without writing your own but for now you will have to bare down and do a little typing.

Before leaving go to my just created Blog "Blogger Basics For Beginners" and make sure that yours is set up like mine. Play around and learn how to use the Page elements. You can also edit the Blog's type, fonts, colors and element positions. Just don't delete your initial post. Hi I dont know who you are, and just got here from a link somewhere on or from Whydowork site, but I have to say Ive just partially read your first lesson on creating a blog and have to compliment you on its simplicity and clarity.

But I just threw it together, and Im now going to read carefully your first 3 lessons and amend it, or even start a new one! Will there be more lessons? Thank you for a great page! August 10, Hi Hawthorn, Thanks for the comment. I will be doing more posts but have been waiting for the latest Google Page Rank update every three months which is occuring right now and will slowly crawl along for the next week or two.

For those of you waiting please be patient as I have several test blogs in the works that have been set up to see which is most effective regarding all the new rules Google imposed after it's latest Google Slap.

Changes to the Google algorithm Upon completion of the current Page Rank update I will know which way to proceed with future lessons. The current lessons are still valid as far as how to set up and optimize your blogs.

The changes imposed by Google relate to page ranking and traffic generation techniques. For now continue to set up your blogs as outlined in my lessons but don't link them together.

This is blog farming and Google will now penalize sites that do this from the same ip addresses. All blogger blogs are on the same ip address.

Other than this just follow my directions and get your blogs started - I have a number of new techniques that I will share with you but will wait until I have some page rank confirmation. Grizzly August 10, Hi Grizzly, just came across your website sounds really god.

Can we really make money from a blog? Hello you with no name I do all the time. I typically create a niche blog, optimize it for the search engines, make the front page in the serps and then collect money from affiliate programs like clickbank or commission junction.

I also make a fair bit from adsense ads. I am either paid directly from Clickbank, Google etc. I pay taxes on my earnings in Canada and suggest you follow the tax requirments in the UK. Not worth getting caught cheating. Grizzly October 16, 9: Hi Grizzly, I did not see the button "notify weblogs" under the publishing tab. Has the site been redesigned? Please tell me how I can make sure weblogs will be notified. November 29, 7: I really have to update these posts one day.

What you are looking for is now located under "Settings" - "basic" and the fields "Add your blog to our listings? This replaces the old weblogs tab. I have yet to actually reap the benefits of making money through, blogging, but if this first post is any indicator, it sounds very easy and fun! Thanks for providing the resources to those of us who have no idea where to start! January 21, 1: Thanks Andy and you are welcome - patience, a little hard work and the benefits will come.

Thanks for stopping in. Griz January 21, 1: January 31, 9: Thank you for this wonderful post, Grizz. I noticed that while you have a tutorial in text format, you don't seem to have one in video format Camtasia screencast.

Is this deliberate, given that search engines love text? February 22, 9: Manuel, You answered your own question - it's all about content and text is the only content Google reads. February 23, 4: Hi, I am terrible at blogging and enjoyed your article!

You have extremely good content. Once you sign up with blogspot. I couldn't find an answer to that anywhere on your page. My apologies for the long post, but this is what the email said: In order to use AdSense through blogger.

To offer you special features for displaying your ads or viewing statistics on their website, partner websites ask our system for access to your AdSense account. We then require your confirmation for this request. While you're free to choose whether or not to grant access, please be aware that this access may be required in order to display ads, generate revenue, or view reports on the partner site.

Should you decide to grant access, the partner will be able to manage some parts of your account on your behalf and access certain reports to display them for you.

Note that they will never be allowed access to personal information such as bank account or payment history.

Important - you are choosing to deny blogger. If you continue, you will not be able to manage your AdSense account through blogger. Note that for services that blogger. Just sounded strange to me March 09, Blogging, You don't have to allow Blogger access to your Adsense account but this is a feature that Google has added for convenience. Google owns Blogger and makes it easy to use Adsense right from the page elements in Blogger if you give Blogger access to your Adsense account.

There is nothing shady going on - it's just a fast way to apply Adsense if you want to use it. March 10, 5: Hi Grizzly, I'm brand new to blogging and making money online. I've just read your first lesson and created a blog on running. I don't know if it will make money or not but It's something I love to do. I've also been reading your other articles for making money online. Hopefully I'll find a niche that works.

Steve March 10, 2: I can hardly wait to see the results! Thanks again for making this so easy to understand, and for the fast replies too. March 10, 3: What an eye opener!! I was writing posts that were interesting but now too SEO.

I listened to some other blog hotshots supposedly. This is exactly what I needed!! Can you please write a post on selecting keywords? I would greatly appreciate it! Thanks, Kevin March 12, 2: I actually was doing what you mentioned and I thought I was nuts to even be doing it.

By this I am referring to creating a lot of blogs. Your article is an affirmation that I am on the right path.

Of course I also ensure that those I have created will not be considered splogs so I kinda do a little bit with them. Hopefully, as I move along, these will bring me to where i want to go. March 17, 4: Can I ask why you say "In the link field you want to type in your blog address so that the post links back to your blog. March 28, 5: RPG Games, You want every post to link back to the homepage. March 28, 6: Thanks Griz, i just set up my first ever blog and it was indexed with relevant google ads displayed in two days.

No money yet but ive gone from no idea to some in one weekend of solid reading thanks again for the no BS way to make money online. April 02, 3: Dear Grizzly, I just wanted to thank you for posting these articles.

I 've been interested in doing something like this for a while now but you made it so simple and you generously did it with no strings attached. I'm in the process of making my first blog April 02, 5: Veks and Shad, Thanks and I wish you both the best. Write good content, get lots of backlinks and above all be patient. April 02, 7: Hey Grizzly, This is probably a stupid question.

In the create account on "blogger. Do I need to set up a new e-mail account with Google?

My only e-mail address is with Yahoo. It's no big deal. I just don't want to screw up. Rick, There are no "Stupid Questions" so if you aren't sure - just ask. You can use any email address you like. Just use a different one for each Blogger account you open - if you get to that stage. Remember no more than a handful of blogs on any one account. On a side note: If you intend on using Google's Webmaster Tools then make sure your email addresses are valid.

April 07, Grizzly, With your guidance I just published my first blog. You made it very simple, thank you, but I still screwed up. At the end of the blog it says it was posted by "Baby's First Toys". Help, where did I eff up? Rick April 08, 2: Rick, The name used in the posts is set by you.

Go to your Dashboard - then click Edit Profile Top Right Corner of Page Go to the Identity section. Under "Display Name" enter the name you want showing at the bottom of your posts.

April 08, 3: Hi, I am grateful for the good information that you have given about making money using blogs. I started a blog last year and I am realizing that I can make money using it now!!!

I just wanted to know how I can add links of other websites and blogs in my own blog. That is, in my blog there be links that if you lick them you can visit another blog, web page etc. Thanks April 15, 6: Prince, It's called a hypertext link - meaning that someone can click it and be taken elsewhere. You can see how to build the link in Lesson Two. Just scroll down the page until you see the example posted using "Dog Grooming". April 15, 7: Hi there grizzly, may i just say that you have really great content.

But im facing quite a problem. April 27, 2: Griz, thanks for your great posts! I've recently started and wondering why the AdSense box is totally empty on my newly created first blog? It doesn't show any ads at all!!!

I don't understand it. I've managed before succesfully using adsense codes on my other sites, so I thought I'm not a beginner in AdSense I forget the Adblock Plus plugin in Firefox That's why my ads aren't visible to me May 02, 3: Great advice, but in the end of the day it is clear what brings in quality traffic are quality posts like the one you just wrote.

This week was my first week of writing quality posts, and I already have gone up to uniques a day. CONTENT is the key. If you have what to offer, word will get out http: Hi Grizzly; I came across your site a few days ago, and was realy interested.

Originally I wanted to learn how to make money, but I just finished setting up my blog and if money come cool if not, no biggie! You have succeeded were I in my most enthusiastic have failed; you got me to actually write some thing! Grizzly; you are a legend! K, South Africa May 14, 3: Hi Grizzly - thanks for the excellent blog but I have a question.

If I understood you right you say to only have 3 or 4 blogs in an account, but that you need hundreds of blogs to make money, so that means having 50 or more accounts. I remember when I set u my Google account it was a long and painful hassle that involved receiving stuff by snail mail and giving codes over the telephone.

Is this really what you mean? Or have I misunderstood? May 16, 8: I would like to know what type face font you use on your blog, also does it matter what the font is, some is easier harder to read, can that help, also I want to know how we go about setting up multiple accounts so we can create many blogs. June 01, 4: Like always I am a bit behind on the comments.. Watcher - I use the Georgia font as it looks clean and as you noted it is far easier to read. Readability is definitely important as you surmised.

You set up multiple accounts using multiple emails. This post is quite old and is in need of some serious re-editing since the days of using blackhat software for creating hundreds of accounts are over. Rather than explaining my current methods in the comments I am working on an updated set of posts to replace these lessons.

In the mean time you folks might benefit from joining our private forum where we have been discussing these matters in depth without having the big G snooping in on us. If anyone would like in please send me an email with "private forum" in the subject line and I will send you instructions. June 01, 5: You missed one, What about this one on comments. Backlinks Default for Posts yes no which one do we pick?

June 07, Watcher, Set it as "New Posts Have Backlinks" which should be the default. If you want people to see who is linking to you then select "show" for "Backlinks". The default is hide.

Hi Griz I am new here, although it has taken me about 2 weeks to read every single post you have made!! I have taken action and set up a single test blog as you have laid out. It was indexed in 3 days and all my posts continued to be indexed for the next 12 days, some within 3 minutes of posting. Then my older posts did not show up in the index for 7 days, now some of them are showing up again. Is this normal to happen in a blogs early days?

I think the key word is patience, oh, and content!! Looking forward to more of your posts. June 09, 6: I couldn't find where it says: Thanks, Dave June 20, 6: Hi Dave, Yup they have changed the layout.

Settings - Basic - Let search engines find your blog? June 20, 8: How do you create the pipe sign and is it more valuable than a forward slash?

UMoney - Griz Card Center - University Of Montana

June 20, Looks like this " ". It is used to replace all the conjunctions that G doesn't read anyway and makes things tidier for the bots. You can see how I use it to list all my keywords in my blog description up top. June 21, 6: Griz, thanks for taking time to answer my question. I keep returning to study your site. June 21, 9: Hi Grizz, I am new to this whole blogging concept and have heard about you from other bloggers and seen you on bloggingZoom. Thanks for the great content.

I am going to be a frequent visitor and I know just from reading your first lesson I will lear a lot. I have also subscribed to your feed as well. July 25, 8: Hello, Can I join your private forum? I've sent you an email a few weeks ago but I guess you did not receive it. August 20, 6: Howdy Grizzly, I appreciate your straight forward info.

I have been wondering for a while now, how do you and other blogger users get your comments to show in the blog page? I really want my readers to be able to post visable comments. I would love to know. Anyhow, thanks for the good advice. I will be sure to click a link or two ; August 21, 5: Yes, I believe its important to be straight forward with people. It took me a couple of months before I made any kind of money. August 26, 3: Thanks for your time advanced. September 02, Yeze, Have you asked Google why you don't qualify?

I really appreciated your lesson, i'm a beginner in blogging and i've searched long time to find a way to make money online. Rabid, Thanks Rabid and best of luck online. Just be patient and don't give up. September 09, 6: Hello Grizzly, I have set up my blog and followed every step in Lesson 1. Except the part about privacy policy and inserting Adsense codes. Can you help me with writing up a Privacy Policy section?

September 10, I first want to thank you for the FREE information. Second, I have a few questions. I have an existing website, will this work on website and not just blogs? And if I'm understanding correctly can I write articles for GoArticles and get backlinks to my website and not my blog?

September 20, 2: Hi I was just wondering how to wright a privacy policy for adsense on my blog October 06, 6: Re; Privacy Policy, Folks you can just copy my privacy policy. Just be sure to change the particular links to your own. October 06, 9: Before I post anything I would like to make one thing very clear before it becomes obvious. I am new at this. As a matter of fact this is my second post to someones blog. Not that I think that, that in itself is flattering I am just reiterating the I'm new at this statement.

That being said I have been reading your post off and on for a few weeks How to Make Money online for beginners. I find it informative to say the least. I believe I will have to camp out here for a while to get a better education. I have tried making money online with not so much luck so far.

I made a page on blogger about a People Search affiliate program I joined. At any rate it's just one page that took me about a week to complete. Ive submitted on ppc because it links to the People Search program. I have determined that I can't afford to do that often. Or Ever So I took some advise and started looking thru forums and looking for free advertising sites.

I have been getting some traffic but nothing much. However the other day I was looking, Quite frankly I'm not sure where , and I saw my whole page being advertised word for word and It wasn't by me! After a closer look I realized someone had taken my name out and replaced his where it appeared he wrote it. I had installed a copyscape button on it and when I clicked it, it showed 5 different classified sites and some blogs with my entire page on it.

I wasn't sure if I should be mad or flattered so I settled on both. My problem is what if anything should I do about it, as I have stated I haven't been getting a lot of traffic with it but it was my first page. I guess I kinda got a little attached to the damn thing. In closing if you have any suggestions I would appreciate it. Thanks If you want to see my page it's at http: In the link field you want to type in your blog address so that the post links back to your blog your home page.

Do you still recommend to enable this in the Blogger settings? Seems counter productive to do this for every post. Wouldn't you want the URL to be more keyword stuffed? Why would you want every post title to link back to the homepage? October 14, 1: I came across one of your blog posts earlier today and think I have spent the last 3 or so hours reading through your blogs and all your GREAT information.

Just wanted to thank you sooo much for the time you put into this! I have learned so much already mind you I am SUPPOSED to be working, haha and decided to start my first "practice" blog. I followed your first set of steps and plan on reading through the rest of them, but in the mean time I just wanted to say thanks and that I really enjoyed your stuff. November 13, 3: Hi, I "accidentally" came across your blog, and it is wonderful. I just have one little question.

At the beginning of Lesson 1, you state that "you will need to create hundreds or thousands of blogs. How in the world can you do that and also write for and manage hundreds, let along thousands, of blogs?

I cannot even conceive of doing such a thing. Vero November 18, I just set up my first niche blog, attempting to follow your instructions, and will add to this over time.

November 20, Hi Grizz, I know you said that in order to avoid the sandbox one should not monetize their site prematurely. Does this mean I should wait until I have keyword authority before adding the Adsense feature to my blog?

December 11, 2: December 11, 4: Anonymous, I have a brand new post Dec 08 that you should read about this topic - see http: Jagzo33, Rumor has it that you may need a self hosted blog in order to sign up with Adsense these days. I'm not positive this is the case but have had a number of people mention this.

I signed up years ago so things might have changed If so - buy a domain name and get a hosting account and then apply to Google. You can get a domain name at GoDaddy.

How do I do this? How do I add more pages? January 02, 9: Hey grizzly this is jude. Hi gizzly i got an adsense account just 3 weeks ago.

I don't want to post the link. Anyway I can send it to you and you can give your opinion? Thanks, Rod January 12, 3: I followed ur instuctions. To see what this entails view the bottom of this Blog - Look for the Header, "Privacy Policy" January 12, 9: I can't find the privacy policy header here. Does G still require this on our blogs? January 18, Sorry about the confusion re: Yes you need a policy if using Adsense. I moved the post to it's own post page and you can access it from the sidebar link titled "a very boring privacy policy" just below the "about me" links.

January 19, 6: Thanks Grizzly I should have seen that! I got through lesson one and adsense is already enabled on my blog.

I just don't know how to move my Privacy Policy to "it's own post page" on the side bar. Realize you don't have time for dumb questions, I just need some direction. January 19, 9: Hi Grizzly, I found your blog s last night at about I could not stop reading.

I stayed up way too late for my own good. Thank you for putting out "real" and usable information. I'm at the end of lesson one and am also stuck on the privacy policy thing.

I know to copy yours and edit it as appropriate. What I don't get is how do I add it to the right sidebar as it's own page with a text link, as yours is? I tried a text widget, that did not work it put the privacy policy on the sidebar, not as a link on the sidebar.

Thanks in advance for any assistance you may be able to provide. Keep up the great work! MSF January 23, 5: Adding the Privacy Page. You will have to post the Privacy Page just as any other post you can backdate it if you don't want it to show as your current post or have a second real post ready for posting in order to knock the Privacy post off the home page - assuming you have set your blog to show only 1 post per page Once you have posted it then add a link in the sidebar pointing to the privacy post page URL.

The URL in the archive - not the homepage URL if it is showing as your current post January 24, If you want ten blogs targeted to 1 niche then put each blog on a seperate account. So I can only make 3 or 4 sites with this account??? Or are you telling us to have 3 or 4 blogger. Can I use the same adsense password or various blogger accounts??? I am not creating "link farms" - the sites I am creating are all going to have articles that are original and that I wrote myself, If I am doing this can I have like sites on the same blogger account?

Great Job on helping a newbie like myself. I would love to post a link on my blog directing people to your blog for help! I am learning a bit each day and hope to learn more than earn for the first couple of years. Dan in East San Diego County February 03, 7: Thanks for the great info! February 08, 9: This article is really great and covers most of the aspects which comes in the mind of a beginner like me.

I fond answers to many of my queries over here also found new ideas which were not even thought by me. I will try to experiment with those as well. Good job February 10, Hi, thanks for nice and clear lesson. I have a blog and with help of your lessons it has improved much. Thats my blog http: Hey Griz I am a student.

I had SO MANY EFFING QUESTIONS about starting a money making blog. I have gone through lesson 1 and I'm now waiting on my adsense account ID I'm going to scratch out a few posts and read ahead into lesson 2.

I won't be dicking around with very many other MMO blogs from here on out. February 17, Very interesting post bro, I just started a new blog at blogger and all your lessons are really helpful to me, thanks for sharing February 20, 8: Thank for the honest and straight forward article.

Everyday, thousands of newbies appear online looking for any opportunities available online. They start creating blog without much knowledge. The aim is only getting money without knowing the fact that information is everything in online business. Eventually they give up and blame that blogger are cheating them. My advice is keep on reading and looking for a real fact and you can start earn money then. February 22, 6: Don't think only at the money.

Do it only if you like it, do it with passion. Then maybe money will come too John February 26, 1: John, This blog isn't about maybe's and passion - it's about making money online and I only think about that. There are enough people starving following their passion. February 26, 2: I have just opened e new blog on my related niche on Bloggers. I have also got some adsense ads All within a few minutes thanks to your step by step post.

It is already quite late and tomorrow is another day.

More adventure waiting for me. February 28, Making money on the internet can be easy or it can be tough. I think you have some interesting ideas - I like them - but I'm not sure how to implement them, yet I will check back for some updates! March 03, 2: I started a blog as in Lesson one but signed up for Adsense, and I see later on that you say not to do it until you have traffic coming to your blog.

Ok so what can I do now to remedy this??? Thank you Thank you very much March 07, 3: I got started a few weeks back and I would like to thank you Grizzly for your wealth of information. March 08, 5: Heyyyy Griz Ive been following your lessons and have a question about back links. The niche i have chosen comes out with a buyers guide once a year.

I was thinking of Starting a post on my blog Yearly that is a buyers guide and want to know if it would be worth wile to email or phone call the places listed in this buyers guide and offer to place there business into the listing "free advertisement "on my blog in exchange for a link to my" how to "blog on there website. You think it would be worth wile?

March 22, I have had a guitar teaching site for several years now and want to increase reach and revenue. Thanks for all the ideas. Just realizing that I really need backlinks a lot. Site specific suggestions from anyone would be appreciated. March 29, Hey Griz You mentioned that it would require hundreds, even thousands of shit blogs to make a lot of money with Adsense. Do you follow this? Would people who do this go through the same processes that you have outlined in your lessons GoArticles, word post, intro post, etc.

Or would it be more of create a blog, use content generator, slap it, move on? March 29, 1: Hey Griz This article is a wealth of information. You should sell this as an ebook, he.. Hope you have more free money making tips for us beginners. The information you have here is unbelievable. I have read endless articles on the web about making money online but I have never come across such a wealth of information and tips that are not cryptic and make sense.

March 30, 2: Grizz, Thank you sooo much for these lessons! I am a young mom on a serious quest to find out how to make money online, thank you for sharing what you know in such an honest clear cut way.

I just started my blog and will continue on with your lessons! I think its important for bloggers to know that it requires LOTS of time and effort before you can see real hard cash! April 05, 1: Just wanted to say thanks for all the tips and info. Came across your site earlier this week and used your tips and will continue to to start up my own blog.

Hi just want to say many thanks for the free lessons. This i I have read the 5 lesson and I am rereading it now for the 2nd time just to make sure that I'm on the right track. For sure I'll be busy for the coming weeks to read all your articles. I could use some help with how to get the privacy policy posted - the way I did it took up half the silly page. Please and thank you! April 21, Hi Grizz, You wrote "As you can no longer use link farms effectively this is a moot point and you should only be creating blogs per account.

Isn't it the point to relate them as to send traffic to that page or use the keyword often to generate traffic those pages. April 27, 6: Thank you for all the information you put up here. I am just beginning to read through it. Already have a few questions, for example: Can't I have one blog with multiple interest, include the keywords in the name and URL, and make money from it as if it was many blogs?

Sorry if this is answered somewhere later, I haven't gotten that far yet, but want to set up my first blog Thanks, Elisabeth May 09, 1: Hi Griz, Thanks for the awesome info. I have been following you for a little less than a month. I wish I had found you a few years ago. You would have saved me beaucoup money and time that I wasted on scam meisters.

I have been trying to make money online since Ferurary As Lis says, "How come you're still around". LOL I'm either stubborn or stupidly persistent, or both, or something worse, I guess, but what else can one do when they retire and lose a chunk of their nest egg in the market and was a terrible programmer in the last reincarnation.

I can do the techie stuff, but it detracts from marketing, back links, reading your info, etc.. I have very few back links. I make a little over a buck a day and that's up quite a bit since I started following you - mostly adsense. I started out with SBI and still have one site there, htt [: One of my sites, http: I have Amazon ads on it related to repelling woodpeckers, but not much luck with the clicks, so I'm wondering if I should add AdSense to it or would that detract from the Amazon ads?

Probably not since I make nothing on Amazon. I am creating a blog called Adsense Blogging for Neophytes. Not that I am a real expert, but I know a little. I have to monetize it now. Thanks You for putting me in touch with Mark and Courtney of Keyword Academy. The seem to be strait shooters like you. I can't thank you enough for showing me a way out of the internet wilderness and rescuing me from the slough of despond.

Back to Work, Walt Brown May 09, 5: Thank you Grizz for posting this info. So much Garbage online, buy this ebook, do this, do that. None of it duplicatable, and it is so frustrating taking advice from certain "gurus" who seem to disappear when a real question is asked. Thank you Renee May 11, 6: Thanks for the awesome info. I have great time reading it. May 25, 4: There's something different in your blog to get engaged your readers. Thanks a lot for your post!

June 03, 1: Do you still have the private forum? June 06, Thanks for the post! Very helpful to me. July 09, 7: I've set up a blog using a wordpress template updated to my own server. I've got some marketing done on it with ezine articles, but the topic weight loss is so competitive a lot of times I don't have much confidence this thing will get off the ground. July 27, 3: Hi Griz, Thanks for a great site with tons of useful information.

I haven't started yet because I'm not sure if Blogger or my own site is best. Clarissa's site looks like SBI, very nice design. Perhaps, if you haven't already Griz, you could talk a bit about the advatages of having your own site s?

Or aren't there any? You've probably answered these questions in your posts, so I'll get back to reading! Thanks again for the great information. July 31, 7: Hi gizzy I had got an adsense account but it got disabled. Can i get another adsense account July 31, Hey Grizz, I already have a blog but I decided to start another one on a completely different topic. Thanks to you for inspiration I wanted to know how to set up adsense on my second blog. It is under a different email account with blogger.

I know you mentioned briefly how to do it but a more in-depth explanation would be wonderful. Thanks, SE August 04, 8: Just a quick question: You say not to link your blogs together if they are Blogger blogs or Google will see it as farming - But is it ok to link blogs together if they are on different servers? I bet you like fishing - please go see if I did my keywords all right at http: Don't worry, it's not boring! Check out the fishing in Western Kentucky and a hillbilly or 2!

You are very welcome to a fishing trip to Kentucky - we'll show you all the good fishin 'holes! Thanks again for all your good teachings - it's really helping me!

I am so busted flat broke, I hope all this will work! I'm in the throes of jumping in with a new blog - won't be long now, thanks to you! August 06, 5: Thanks for the free info Grizz.

I would like to join the private forum but somewhere else I believe you stated that you are getting too much email this was posted by you back in I am not sure even what your email is.

As of August , how would someone get onto the private forum? August 07, 8: Unfortunately we closed the forum down - too many spies reporting our activities and sites to Google. So much for trying to help people - there are always a few bad apples August 07, 9: Hey gizzly i created a blogger as you said but i can not create an adsense account. August 11, 9: They are but you will have to pass a visual inspection these days as they are weeding out spam sites.

Don't apply for adsense until you have legit original content posts up on the site. You don't want to look like you are just creating a blog for the purpose of slapping adsense on it. These days you can only get approved for a legit site so be sure to add an about me page and even a few blogroll links to legit sites in your niche. August 11, This is probably silly, but I set up a blogger account and did my first blog. When I want to do anotehr blog do I just 'post' another blog, or do I actually go in and set up a new titel, description etc?

Do you have or do you recommend any liability insurance for a money making blogger? How many blogs entries should a new blogger start with. I really appreciate this detailed post, but about re-writing articles before posting to article directories, what if after posting to my blog i wait for some days for google to index the page before posting to article directories. This was adviced in atomic blogging 3.

What do you think? It will give you the best results even though it means more work. My theory is do it right the first time and it will be less work in the long run. This is my first-time post here but I have been a silent student and lurker here for quite some time.

Partager sur Twitter Partager sur Facebook. Make Money Using Blogs — Lesson 2. Basic Internet marketing Concepts when Blogging The goal of this exercise is to provide beginners with a solid foundation on which to build an online marketing business.

As I mentioned in the first lesson, the best place to begin is with your own blog. Simple… Blogs are free and they are an excellent way to learn the basics of online marketing without spending money to do it. Start with one blog and learn how to tweak it using SEO techniques that I will give you as we move along. Ultimately we want your blog indexed by Google. If you do this correctly, Google will eventually start sending traffic to your site.

How long does this take? It depends on many factors but I have found that my main blogs have all been indexed within a few weeks and in one instance — 3 days.

Indexing — This term refers to the search engines. Simply put — Do the search engines know that your site exists? If they do then you have been indexed.

How can you tell? Just query the search engine using your URL address ie. There are many search engines but we are only interested in the top three; Google, Yahoo and MSN. The factors we know of include things like page content, the age of a site, keywords, sheer volume of unique content, page rank and most importantly, relevant back links.

Google likes unique content. You will get indexed fast if you use original material on your blog. You can also get into copyright troubles doing this. The age of a website or blog The older the site the better.

This is not crucial but Google will give older sites a higher preference over new sites simply to eliminate all the spam blogs and sites that are created daily from dominating its index. This can be overcome with the proper technique.

Keywords The term keyword simply refers to what your topic is. Google uses keywords to generate its search. If you have a website or blog that discusses Ugg Boots and you have used this keyword enough times in your posts then Google will rightly assume that your website is about Ugg Boots.

If you only used the keyword once while talking about Australian fashion then Google will probably not use your site in its list for Ugg Boots but may decide that your site is about Australian fashion instead. Keywords are very important for getting your site listed in the proper category. If you are starting a blog that sells Ugg Boots then you had better make sure that the search engines know what your site is about.

This is done by using your prime Keywords in your page titles, post titles and sprinkled a few times in your articles. Beware that using your keywords too many times will get you into trouble as Google will see your site as a spam blog and delete you from its index.

Content Volume The more pages you produce the better. Search engines like content — the more the merrier. If you keep adding pages to your blog or website, the search engines will crawl you regularly and your site will get listed more often when your keywords are queried. Think of it this way. If you write just one article about a subject, how much info can you give in three or four hundred words. A bit but you will leave a lot of pertinent info out.

Take Ugg Boots for example. My first article might discuss the history of Ugg Boots and where to buy them. Are you getting the picture. The more articles you write the more content you give the search engines to list your site under. If my site has a thousand pages on everything there is to know about Ugg boots then I guarantee I will get listed for every query made about Ugg boots. The more you get listed the greater your traffic will be and the more clicks your adsense ads will get.

I have used the Ugg boot keyword so many times in this article that it will fool Google into thinking this post is about Ugg boots and it will get listed for that query — the unfortunate user will find out that this is really about making money online with blogs. My apologies to anybody who found this page while searching for boots.

Page Rank and Back Links Update — Over the past few years Google has removed the weight it used to give to pages with high page rank. As a result page rank now has little to do with how well your site will rank for a targeted keyword. I have left this info on the page but it no longer is of much concern.

I have dominated many keywords in the search engines with low PR sites and pages. Page rank is closely associated with back links. To separate the wheat from the chaff Google has devised a page ranking system that it uses to determine how important your pages are. At present you only have one post on it and it should resemble the post I left on my new blog Blogger Basics for Beginners. It is highly unlikely that Google has found your blog yet but if it has then you would be indexed for whatever topic you picked.

Someone looking for your post using Google search would likely find your site listed a couple of hundred pages deep in the search listings. This is effectively like not being listed at all. I have had traffic come to my sites from as deep as six or seven pages back in the Google listings but most people will not search more than the first two or three pages. Ideally you want to be on the first page to get the most traffic. To get on the first page you need, above all else, back links.

Only the sites that Google deems as highly relevant get on the first page. Let me explain this further. Every site is ranked between 0 and The higher the number the more important your site is.

If your site is a 10 then I guarantee your site will be listed on the first page and no doubt in the top position. Currently the new blog you set up has a ranking of 0 zero. Content and the age of your site will gain you some ranking over time. If you do nothing else but post unique content then you might get a ranking of 2 in a year from now, possibly sooner.

A ranking of 2 will not get you much traffic. How can you speed up your ranking? Simple… get back links and get lots of them. Back Links What are back links? They are links placed on other websites or blogs or forums or directories that connect people to your site. In other words they are click-able links that point back at your site called hypertext. The theory is that the more sites that have links pointing back at your site the more important your site must be.

If other sites are sending traffic to your site then you must be some kind of authority for your niche or topic. As a result Google will give you a higher page rank because of your importance. With a higher page rank your site will then get listed higher in the searches. There are some rules to this however. The back links that count must be relevant to your topic.

If you have links from a site like mine then Google will ignore the links because my site is in no way relevant to dog grooming. The page rank of the sites giving you links is very important. If you get 1 hundred links from pet stores to your dog grooming site but all the incoming links are from sites with o page rank then you might get a ranking of 1 or 2.

If you get half a dozen links from relevant sites that have a page ranks of 5 or higher then you will end up being ranked a 4 or 5. If you can get a link from a page rank 7 or higher you will vault up the rankings quickly and the age of your site will not matter. I mention this to caution you against using link exchanges or link farms. These types of links worked in the past but no longer as Google ignores them.

By the way if Google catches you linking to sites that are not relevant to your site you will be penalized and lose ranking.

This is how link exchanges work — people buy or sell links to anyone else regardless of relevancy. Stay clear of this. You will gain more from one way links. Lots of sites that are relevant to your site will trade links with you. They link to you and you link to them. This is called a two way link. The exception would be if the other site has a high page rank. In this case go ahead but in reality high page rank sites only want links from other high ranking sites.

They will not link to you unless there is an advantage for them. One way links are the best because Google sees them as a confirmation of your importance, ie. The good news is that it is easy to get lots of relevant backlinks.

I will get back to this shortly. The Google Sandbox One more — one last thing… You may or may not of heard about the sandbox effect. When it comes to Google nobody really knows the whole story on how they tweak their system. One of the most confusing programs they employ is the sandbox a system that keeps your site off the charts for a indeterminate period of time.

This is in order to stop spam sites from getting listed fast. A new site may sit in the sandbox for 6 months collecting quality backlinks and lots of unique content and still not get listed in the searches.

Then one day you find Google suddenly recognizes all the back links and content and bumps your site way up the charts. I have several good sites that have been in the sandbox for several months now. This is normal and I have learned to be patient and use the time to get good backlinks and keep adding content. The confusing part is that this particular blog you are reading spent zero time in the sandbox. Google indexed this site in 3 days and has credited me with backlinks already.

This has meant traffic has been coming from the search engines since practically day one. This blows me away as this blog is less than two months old and I am already high in the listings for certain keywords. I should mention that Yahoo and MSN has me even higher. I mention this because I know what I did different in this blog and my guess is that Google approves and has rewarded my efforts.

This is the same technique that I am going to teach you. I received an email asking how much I was going to charge for these lessons. Apparently the fellow thought I was going to give away a few tidbits to get you all hooked and then hit you up for money before I gave you the really good stuff. The rules Try for about words. Longer is also good but not necessary Use your Keywords a couple of times throughout the whole article.

Use your Keyword in the Blog Post Title Use your Keyword in the first sentence. Use your Keyword in the final sentence. Try and Put your Keyword in Bold type at least once in the article — a sub headline is a good way to do this. Put your link in the link field so that the post links back to your site. Your link is http: Post your article on your Blog. After you have finished on your Blog go to GoArticles.

GRiZ: Making Music Free

Synonyms are words that mean the same thing as the original word. You will post the second article on GoArticles. The GoArticle posting is what will get you those free and easy backlinks I was talking about earlier. I will explain more about this in the next lesson. Before posting the second article I have to show you how to embed your sites backlink in the first sentence of the article.

I will explain the reasons for this next lesson, for now just follow my instructions as this is very important. The less extra words the better. Remember to put this in bold print in your blog post. GoArticles will not let you make it bold. Highlight the entire block of code, copy it and paste it after highlighting the keyword in your first sentence. GoArticles has an authors box that allows you to put a backlink to your site in it. When people publish your article on their site they are required to post the whole article and your Author Bio containing your link as well.

Sadly a lot of sites will just post the first few lines of your article and tell their readers that they can find the rest of your article at Goarticles. You will be surprised how many times others will use your articles as content on their sites. Keep in mind that you will be downloaded more often if you have picked a popular niche.

The sites using your article will likely not get the page indexed as Google will hit them for duplicate content. While your competition is busy not being indexed using your article you will be getting indexed because of your unique content. Your competition actually helps you by giving you backlinks while you hurt them by giving them duplicate content.

Imagine there were only ten sites on the net that competed for dog grooming. Your site uses unique content and you supply the other 9 sites with duplicate content embedded with backlinks to your site. What would Google see?

They would rank you at the top as the authority because all the other sites are pointing at you. Out of a million competing sites you really only have 50 to real rivals, others that know what they are doing and are working on their rankings. You just have to out perform these sites to get top ranking. Stick with me and I will show you how.

Tune in again for lesson three of Make Money Using Blogs notice how I snuck my Keywords into the last line — and bold to boot Later folks. Anonymous said… Great stuff. Thanks for the info. Are you going to talk about how to create blogs? Anyway just wanted to say that your site is great. Don February 10, What are your thoughts on this company?.

The post appeared like I wrote it, but it printed out like this. Where did I go wrong? Thanks for your help, Rick April 11, 9: I usually just write my posts directly on blogger to avoid transposition problems when moving text over from another text editor.

April 11, 9: I wrote it directly in the Blogger posting box. It looked fine when I finished, but when I hit preview some lines had 10 words, some maybe 1 or 2. I tried for 2 hours this morning in Blogger to correct the problem.

I joined the help group they have on site, but saw nothing that could help. I am a very raw beginner, but I know how to type a sentence. I was ecstatic when I saw those relevant adsense ads my keyword: Thanks again, Rick April 11, You can toggle between these two tabs at the top right hand corner of the box you do your writing in on blogger.

Thank you November 04, November 05, 3: A single link from another site will get you indexed as the Google bot crawls the linking site and finds yours.

November 05, 5: The keyword I am targeting for your method has a competition of 25, Should be easy to get 1. I have an articlemarketer. The only articles that get accepted are the ones that rarely have my keyword in them: Aside from Goarticles what else should I try, should I comment on dofollwo blogs with my anchor text?

What else can I do to rise up the serps?? Thanks again for your replies, Griz BTW, how down am I on your TO DO list??

Just a friendly reminder on the mail I sent you November 05, Here is a list of bloggers who are interested in exchanging links for niche blogs.

Hate to say it but my email runneth over — as soon as I can… November 06, 8: For example if I submit an article to goarticles I get a few backlinks from a page with PR10, however if I submit an article to ezine articles which Google seems to love I get a couple of backlinks with anchor text from a a page with PR4 — 3. I tried out one of my blogs using go articles and one using ezine. I was on the first page in a month by using ezine articles. Obviously I hammered out 20 or so articles.

All you get is thousands of backlinks that drag your site down the SERPS instead of up. November 25, 2: I just might move back to Canada now… maybe not. February 16, 5: Been reading quite a few of ur blogs lately and i must admit im impressed.

U seem to really know ur way around this whole internet marketing system. Im taking u up on ur advice and trying to start my own blog.

PS I have to say ur lessons are superb!! Youve made the world a better place! February 20, 1: Learn how to make money without spending it first. As a newb, I made a big mistake of publishing my original content from my blog onto ezinearticles, without revising any of it.

I was not aware of the duplicate content filter at the time and was thinking I was simply creating valuable backlinks. My ezinearticles have had over 27, page views, but only a fraction of that has clicked onto my site. I know realize that my content on ezinearticles. Should I just go and delete my ezinearticles or try to edit them in some way. And if I should edit them, to what extent should I revise them to make sure it is not duplicate content?

Is there any way to salvage this situation? Thanks in advance for your help. March 06, 5: I got indexed on Google after only one week!
