Blogging for Money: A Beginner's Guide

Blogging for Money is a blog that wants to show you how to blog for money. The methods and ways to make money by way of blogging continue sprouting up on the internet and so no doubt there must be something to it. This guy, though, is keeping an online accounting of his progress daily - starting from Ground Zero. I think it's a grand idea.

What's interesting about this blog is that I found it on the heels of my own "Start from Day 1" SEO Challenge. I thought I was being unique in starting from scratch! Nevertheless I will take a clue from him in what I need to do in my own starting from scratch niche blog.

So Blogging for Money will starting from scratch. He will commemorate what he's doing and ways he finds to make money by way of blogging. What I really like are his detailed explanations. This is a good way to make a starting from scratch niche blog. For example, on Day 18 in his Weekly Contemplation he tells us what he has learned:

I think my biggest mistake is that I've been hanging out too long in MyBlogLog.com, while my Google Analytics shows me that MyBlogLog is only responsible for 19% of my overall traffic. I've managed to have 10 blogs linking to mine, though, so I guess it does well to boost my technorati ranking to around 500,000th now (compared to one million eight hundred something last week).

I have already learned something from him and I wish this blog all the Blogging for Money success in the world.

OMG! Well I am honored you allowed me to brighten your spirit! I live to do it quite frankly!

Often there's just too much crap to "report" but trust me I'd rather be responsible for someone's happiness rather than talking about injustices and bad manners and bad ideas and so forth!

I wish it much success Michael! :)
