A great one! Let’s have some fun with it! Here’s how most people tell you to do it:

• Get a free Blogger blog
• Put some content on it
• ad some Adsense ads
• promote

• promote

Now, let me tell what doing the above did for me. It made me about $37 in adsense earnings. I bet you can’t guess how long it took me to earn that $37.

If you can guess the correct answer to the above question, I’ll build you a blog for free. No strings attached.

I wanted to make money online without money. I wanted to make some fast money online. I wanted to make money with my blog. So I bought a $97 E-book and dove in head first believing what the author told me. I really thought that I could do it. Well, I did make money online without money.

Can you guess how long it took?

However, it is very possible to make money from home blogging.  And if there is anyone that can teach you how, then Jack Humphrey is the top man that can teach you how to make blog profits.

I learned almost everything I know about blogging from Jack Humphrey. I stalk him like an eagle stalks it’s prey and Jack welcomes it. That’s the one thing I really like about him. He almost insists that his students use the exact methods that he spends thousands of dollars on for free.

Contrary to popular belief, very few people reap the profits they want from their blog. Most people who set about to earn money with a blog do not succeed for two reasons.

Reason #1 Having unreasonable expectations of how fast your readership will grow and how much money you will make. When these expectations are not met, the letdown oppresses the desire to continue following your dream of having a profitable blog and you give up to quickly.

OR

Reason #2  Simply, the lack of planning. If you want to turn a profit as a blogger, the key to succeeding is to have  a realistic plan and follow through with it.

YOU CAN SUCCEED!

To date,  there are no written rule books for blogging. I am sure Google must be working on that too!!! Yet, there are two essential rules for blogging for cash. One is to regulate the content i.e. to avoid blogging to become a tool of racial discrimination and absurdity. This rule is somewhat related to legalities and they are nothing different than the compliance rules of daily life. So a mature blogger doesn’t need to worry about these.

Let’s concentrate on another unwritten rule that will make your blogging fun for you as well for the visitor. It will help you in your fight for some of the the traffic on the big ass cyber highway. Now let me give a couple of blogging tips that will help you move ahead in this traffic war.

1. Topic: Everyone is a master in at least one field. Try to look like a knowledgeable blogger before your visitors in at least one topic. Do not jumble up all the issues, which you are interested in writing for, in a single blog. This creates a confused, and unmanaged perception in reader’s mind about you. You have to keep your visitors coming back!
2. Content of Posts: Keep your posts close to the topic you choose for your blog. Information about pet’s care on a blog dealing with Golf is a total absurdity. This may be an exaggeration, but still, keep the posts topic specific so that the blog serves well for the people who are searching for that particular niche.
3. Presentation does matter: What’ll be your response if you get your favorite dish in a shabby bowl or made to eat it with a broken spoon?? You will vow to never return to such a restaurant ever in your life and that’s for sure. The same goes for condition of your blog. If the content is good but the presentation is unplanned and shabby, folks won’t want to come back. Choose backgrounds, colors, font and sizes according to gravity of topic. For Example, the current affairs and the political blog may be simple and  a sober presentation is suitable. For a more fun loving and entertainment blog fancy colors and fonts prove attractive and suitable.
4. Helpful Information: offer something or other to your visitors every time to engage them in the blog. Make use of different opinion poll tools and ask for responses from the visitors on your posts. Regularly post some helpful information for the visitors related to your topic. Try to make your blog a hub of expert people related to the topic of your expertise.
5. Updating: keep the contents updated to the latest trends and rules going on in the market about that particular field. This will help you to become the authority in your topic. Hence, making your blog THE goto blog for (your niche). That’s what you want to create.

These simple steps require very little work and time devotion. What you put in is what you get out. The popularity of your blog will determine how much money you earn from it . Isn’t it great?? Yes of course, hard work always gets great returns. That’s only if you follow my blogging tips.
