Blogs are here to stay, and many Wahms (Work At Home Moms) are taking advantage of the trend. Making money with blogs is a popular choice for many work at home moms. Blogs are simple to set up, and relatively easy to update. This is especially true when you compare blogs to other types of websites. Within just a few minutes, you can set up a professional looking blog for free and start your Wahm blogging business.
A blog is an easy to update website that looks sort of like a journal. Entries are made at a minimum of each week, and the newest entries appear at the top. Usually entries are short articles containing 200 to 500 words. Readers use a blog reading program to visit the blog or read new entries. Readers can also comment on entries and provide links between their own blogs and your blog.
With blogs, the opportunities are wide open. Looking at your own life for inspiration makes choosing a blog topic easy. There are blogs about every topic, from gardening to make-up to celebrity news. Before you start a blog, do some research on the Internet to see if people are interested in your possible blog topic. If you have a dedicated group of people who are interested in your topic, it doesn’t have to be a popular one.

What is “Monetizing Your Blog?”
Some people believe that monetizing your blog is unethical and immoral. Some people believe that monetizing is just a cheap way to make money from home. If you think along these lines, this blog is not for you. Here, we will learn all of the secrets of monetizing your blog successfully, and the secrets of how to make money from the comfort of your own home.
If you have mixed feelings about monetizing your blog, then sort out those feelings first. If you are not fully prepared to undertake the daunting task of monetizing your blog, then do not continue. When you are ready to learn how to make great money by blogging, continue reading.
OK, now that you are ready to learn, first you have to be fully committed to monetizing your site. If you are going to put up a few adsense ads, really put up adsense ads. A puny little square text box in the corner of the screen is not going to cut it. If you are going to be asking for some donations, really ask for those donations. “Don’t take a half approach. Either be a full or no approach.”
You shouldn’t worry about complaints. If you are worried that you might scare off some loyal readers, you shouldn’t be. Usually, you will only get 1 in 1000 people who complain about the ads; and eventually that one person comes to realize that the ads are there to stay.

In my previous list building article I was discussing how to drive massive amounts of traffic to your squeeze page. Though very effective, the traffic sources I listed were also very beginner friendly. Today I’m going to take it to the next level and show you have to drive even more traffic, with some more advanced resources – note that these aren’t supposed to replace the resources in the last article, they are meant to be add-ons to your overall traffic strategy.
But before we get started on that we need to take a close look at your conversion tracking…

I remember my first website sale. I made $13,000 Australian dollars selling a website that I had built from scratch myself. That sale was a big windfall for me and a moment I won?t forget because it was the first time I saw the real potential of online property investment.
Since that sale I?ve gone on to sell more than $150,000 USD in websites. Some of the sites I built myself, investing my own time and sometimes money, while others I have purchased and then sold for a profit at a later date.
I?ve never lost money on a website investment, although I have bought some sites that were not big money spinners – I got out with pretty much the same as I went in with. When profits are made though, the worst I have done is double my money. Read the rest of this entry
