Blogging Dollars in 7 Hours or Less




By Mal Keenan

Need to make money fast, but you don't want to spend
a single cent to establish an online business? Fret not,
dear friend. You could actually start earning from the
web with zero capital, zero obligations and zero risks!
All these can be accomplished within 24 hours! Read
on and I'll show you how.

Hour 1

Try to find a profitable niche. Niches are highly
specialized segments of a market where the demand is
high and the supplies are low. There are few
competitions in a niche, allowing you more opportunity
to establish your online presence.

Think of a market that you could cater to. Then narrow
it down by enumerating its subcategories. The more
you are able to reduce the subject, the higher the
profitability will be. For example, the general market
you thought of is about dogs. A subcategory of this
would be about Chihuahuas. A further subcategory
would be about Chihuahua grooming.

Hour 2

Once you have found your niche, run a search at
www.inventory.overture.com or www.nichebot.com .
The results would show how many searches were
made for that subject. The more searches there are,
the higher the demand is for that topic.

Run a similar search of the same subject in any of the
search engines on the net. The results would reveal
your competition. Naturally, you would want a subject
that has less competition. This would mean that you're
looking for one that would produce few results in your
searches.

Hour 3

Once you've found a lucrative niche, it's time to look for
its relevant keywords. Run a search of the topic at
https://adwords.google.com/select/KeywordSandbox
to get a list of related keywords and keyphrases.
Keep a copy of this list.

Hour 4

Open an account with a free blogging site. Or, if you
already have your own website, download the
Wordpress software at www.wordpress.com . It's
free. And Wordpress can be easily integrated with any
website.

Set up your account. Fiddle with the controls. You'll
discover that using a blog is as easy as writing down
your thoughts and clicking on a button to publish them
for all the online world to see.

Hour 5

Enroll in any affiliate program of your choice. You could
choose more than one, of course. Just make sure that
such program is offering some products that cater to
the niche you have chosen. Try to find a program that
offers highly sellable products and generous
commissions. Don't settle for a commission rate of less
than 20%. Look for something that would give you at
least 40% for every successful sale you would be able
to refer. A good place to start is www.clickbank.com ,
but eventually you would want to "graduate" to
something grander. But for your initial foray, ClickBank
would suffice.

After enrollment, you would be able to immediately
choose the products you want to pre-sell. Get the
affiliate links for them. Do not lose these affiliate links.

Hour 6

It's time to put that blog to good use! The premise
heart of this budget-friendly strategy is your blog.
Blogs are excellent and cost-effective alternatives to
websites. Search engines love them, and they have
their own linking network as well. Also, they are easily
updatable, and search engine spiders love consistently
updated content.

Write an interesting piece about the niche you have
chosen. It may be a personal review of one of your
affiliate products, or your views on the niche in
general.

The trick here lies in being able to strategically insert
your affiliate links in your blog entries. It must be
subtle. You won't want your blog to look like a blatant
sales page. Your entries should be highly informative,
first and foremost. Content is still king, and it is what
will drive visitors to your site.

Hour 7

Go to www.pingomatic.com . Ping the blog directories
and the search engines that can be found there. This
would inform their spiders that your content has been
updated, and they will check it out come the next
relevant query. What does this mean? Fast indexing
for your blog site!

So there you go. A zero dollar, seven hour marketing
plan that would rake in some earnings. It doesn't stop
there, however. Try to post a new entry everyday,
and ping the search engines afterwards. Soon
enough, you'll have a high traffic blog site where you
could expose your affiliate links to a whole lot of
people!

Good luck!
