Not only are there a lot of people out there blogging for fun, many of
them are finding ways to make money by blogging. There are a number of
ways an income from blogging can be achieved, but one of the most
popular is by affiliating your blog. If you are blogging or considering
starting a blog and you are not yet affiliated, you will quickly find
that you should. Otherwise, you are just leaving money on the table that
you may not have to.
The first thing you may be asking yourself is this: what is an affiliate
program? Well, that is a great question and one easily answered. An
affiliate program is one where the seller offers a part of the money
generated by a sale to those who refer customers to them. There are, in
fact, a lot of websites out there who are parts of affiliate programs.
With these companies, you need to sign up. You will, in most cases, be
given a unique ID from that affiliate. That ID is for identifying you as
the one who has referred the customer to the site and made the sale. If,
then, you are successful in helping to sell the product, you receive
payment that is generally stated in whatever your affiliate agreement
includes. The amount you might get paid ranges greatly. You may make as
little as one cent in US dollars or as much as one hundred US dollars
depending on the product, the company, and sometimes the amount you help
to sell.
Once you have made the decision to use an affiliate program and have
figured out which one you want to use, then you are ready to get
started. Sign up and register for the affiliate program and start adding
your affiliate’s codes to your blog. Ah, but there is the next issue:
how do you include affiliate links? There are a few ways you can do
that. First of all, you can do reviews about a product and then link to
that product through your affiliate program (obviously you would need it
to be a product offered by your affiliate program). A second way, if you
don’t want to do a review, is to compile a recommended list that is
either in a blog entry or along the side of your blog. A third way to
get your affiliate program involved in your blog is to use codes or
scripts in your coding that will generate random links to products in
your affiliate program.
Once you have your links and your program in place, it will be all about
product. It is important to note that most people are not going to keep
reading a website if they think it is just all about selling. Make sure
your content, which you update regularly, is useful to the reader. You
want that reader to keep coming back and hopefully working through your
affiliates, so you really should concentrate on good, solid, useful
content that is going to keep your readers coming back and not make them
feel like they are being sold all the time. If, however, you really want
to sell, you should try to label your site as a commercial endeavor.
Keep those things in mind and your affiliate program will hopefully help
you turn a profit.
No matter what your blogging experience may be, it is possible that you
can blog for fun and profit at the same time. There are a number of ways
to make a profit off of your blog, but the most common right now is to
affiliate yourself with certain other sites and products. Affiliate
programs generally cost little or no money and can help you make money
on your own. They are basically a way of getting commission from helping
someone to sell a product or service. So find the ones that work with
the theme of your blog and get those codes up on your site. Once they
are up, make sure you are finding ways to drive traffic to them without
going overboard on the selling and making sure your content is useful.
Stick with these tips and stays focused and before you know it, your
blog can become a success through the use of a good affiliate program.

AdSense Tips For Bloggers
Word Count:
722
Summary:
Blogging has opened up an entirely new way of how non-technical people
interact with the Internet, and now, anyone can publish anything about
any topic – without having a website – and anyone can profit without
even having a product!
Keywords:
blogging, adsense, blogs
Article Body:
If you have joined the blogging revolution that is sweeping the net, and
you think you might want to make a little revenue – or a lot of revenue
– from your blogging efforts, you need AdSense tips for bloggers.
Blogging has opened up an entirely new way of how non-technical people
interact with the Internet, and now, anyone can publish anything about
any topic – without having a website – and anyone can profit without
even having a product!
Adsense for blogs make perfect sense. Google’s advertising programs are
designed to work with sites related to the keywords for the ads that are
being presented. Each time you add content to your blog, the Google
spiders gobble it up. The more you update, the more the Google spider
visits your page. Ultimately, you move up in the SERPs (Search Engine
Results Pages) for the topics that you write about. You see where this
is going. The higher your search ranking, the more traffic you receive,
which ultimately leads to higher revenue from AdSense ads.
The beauty of blogs is their potential for rapid growth. If you become
known as an expert in your area of expertise, word of mouth spreads
quickly and your blog can become very popular. So it is vital that you
always teach something with every blog entry. You want your readers to
come back frequently and they will if they know they will learn
something. Not only will your readers bookmark your blog and return
often, but they will link to your blog enthusiastically as well. People
in forums will refer to your blogs and discuss what they learned.
Websites will link to you as a valuable resource. In short, an
informative blog can grow very quickly if the information it
provides is valuable.
It is important to write about specific topics, and sprinkle your blog
entries with specific keywords to get the best results – and the highest
revenue – with your Google AdSense ads. There is a method to the
madness. Start your revenue generating blog by testing the waters.
Decide what area you would like to write about and then do some keyword
research. Research is easy if you use Google’s keyword tools found at
https://adwords.google.com/select/KeywordSandbox . The keyword tools are
located in your Google AdWords account. Yes, you need a free AdWords
account to be successful but you don’t have to fund it to use the
keyword tools. Look for keywords related to your subject that are high
paying. These are keywords where the bid amounts are high. Make a list
of the top paying keywords, and use that list to determine what topics
you will write about.
Remember, you want people to visit your blog time and time again, and
build up a readership, make sure that your blog is well written and
informative. Don’t just target keywords for the sake of targeting
keywords – the writing needs to make sense! Writing valuable content is
the first step to generating traffic to your blog, and traffic is needed
to profit from AdSense ads!
You are allowed to use the AdSense ad units in two different places on
each page. You can accomplish this in a couple of different ways. First,
you can add the AdSense ad code to the template for your blog. This is
done through the control panel for your blog, and some knowledge of HTML
is needed. The other option is to paste the AdSense code directly in
your blog post each time you submit a new post. You can use it once at
the top and once at the bottom, or once after a few paragraphs of the
post, and again after a few more paragraphs.
Get that code in there however you see fit – but then pay close
attention to the results so you can see what is working and what isn’t.
Tracking is everything if you want to make real money!
Of course, you need to advertise your blog as much as possible as well.
Make sure that you provide Trackbacks to other people’s blogs as often
as possible, and that you visit blogs, leave comments – and leave a link
for your blog as well!

A Great Idea For a Blogging Web Site is No Longer Enough
Article Body:
Whether you
are starting up a new web site aimed at bloggers or
whether you are looking to make your existing blogging
site more distinctive, the key to building and
maintaining a site that will capture the interest and
attention of the blogging community is finding your
niche. If you can fill a unique need in a way that no
other web site does, you'll be able to build a lasting
readership among web surfers. Once you have
discovered a niche, you will still have a lot to do, but
finding your place in the blogosphere is the place to
begin.
Every great blogging web site starts with a great idea,
and you can't build a successful site that will last
without one. There are many great sites aimed at
today's bloggers, and competition for the attention of
this growing demographic is fierce. To make your
blogging web site stand out from the pack, you will
need to offer something that no other site is currently
offering, or you will need to do the same thing that an
already popular site does but in a more impressive or
valuable way.
One way to discover an ideal model for your blogging
web site is to look at the sites that have successfully
captured a blogging audience already to determine if
you can appropriate some of their strategies to help
realize your vision. Of course, you will also need to add
a unique flair to your project in order to stand apart
from your competition. Many people agree that the web
sites that do the best in today's market are the sites that
have the most personality. The fiercely individual
surfers who are bloggers are a demographic that
responds especially strongly to personality, so consider
how you can give your site a unique and attractive
feeling by lending your own voice and sensibility to
your site's design and content.
Once you have a great idea for your site, have
pinpointed a special niche that you are well equipped to
fill, and have infused the site with personality, the next
step is figuring out how to get the word out to bloggers.
In the long run, a great idea just isn't enough to propel
your blogging web site to success. You will need to
draft a smart and realistic marketing plan in order to
draw readers to your site. Once you hook a blogger,
your great content will keep them coming back, but it is
vital to get that first glance or your site won't have a
chance to shine.

Article Body:
1. Blog Regularly - many of the top blogs post 10-20 times per day.
2. Create Authority Articles - instead of blogging frequently, post less
often but focus on creating Authority Posts -- lengthier articles that
are really well put together which will attract attention from other
bloggers & users of social bookmarking sites like Digg, reddit, etc.
3. Comment on Other Blogs - do not keyword spam in these, but rather use
your own name and add value to the conversation.
4. Link Out Frequently to Industry Leaders - show some linklove to other
bloggers in your niche. In turn, they might eventually link back if you
have a quality post on a topic they have not covered yet.
5. Participate in Blog Carnivals - these are a way for bloggers within a
niche to get together and periodically highlight posts from one
another's blogs. You can find an index of these at BlogCarnival.com.
6. Do Guest Posts - not just for A-List bloggers, but B-List and beyond.
Be sure to work up some good material first, so as to make a good first
impression.
7. Article Marketing - chances are, you're reading this via a site that
syndicated this article using an article marketing script of some sort.
Join a site like ArticleMarketer.com and syndicate your articles to
thousands of participating sites. If distributed via the web, these
sites are required to link back to you via a byline (see below).
8. Social Digging/Mixxing - join sites like Digg, Mixx, Bumpzee, etc.
and encourage your users and/or friends to submit your stories.
9. Social Bookmarking - join del.icio.us, Furl, Wink, Backflip, etc and
submit your popular articles to these sites to seed them into the
community.
10. Use Great Headlines - okay, which sounds better "Some Ways to Get
Readers", or "10 Time-tested, Battle-Hardend Blog Traffic Techniques".
Many readers are particularly fond of "Top X" lists, or "How To ..."

cgiscripts.com and similar directories of scripts. Some even go as far
as giving incentives to those who recommend the site to their friends.
If only 10 people go to your site, but these 10 people invite 10 more -
that's additional traffic that you get for FREE!
3. Rank well in the search engines (organic search results, not the pay
per click). Search engines can be a big source of traffic. The key is to
create the best content in your niche. If you have good content, other
websites will gladly link to you and offer your site as a resource to
their audience. Check the on-page factors and be sure to get linked from
authority sites in your topic area.
4. Send out press releases. While some sites charge hundreds of dollars
per release, there are free press release submission places on the Web.
Press releases allow you to (a) attract media attention; (b) get more
back links to your website without sending each website an email
request; and (c) get more visibility especially if your press release
gets in Google News or Yahoo News. My website (see my profile) accepts
free press release submission (no strings attached!)
5. Submit articles. Write articles and submit them to websites accepting
author submissions. You get exposure for your business; establishes you
as an authority in your field, and allows you to get backlinks for your
website. If 50 websites publish your article and it contains a link back
to your website, then you easily get 50 links from a single article. The
more links you have, the greater your chances for increasing your search
engine rankings.
6. Post your URL on free ad sites like Adlandpro or Adpost. You can also
