Making money with your blog

I have been noticing alot of questions out there in the social networking scene about how to make money blogging.

Google seems to take forever to make any money, and the bloggers just aren't happy!

Here are a few other things you can try to boost your income while having fun blogging:

Offer advertising- Many home business owners and small business owners are operating on a tight budget. Offer affordable advertising and it's a win-win situation for all. They can advertise to a target audience and you pocket a little spare change.

Affiliate Marketing Many companies will compensate you a portion of every sale if you put their button or banner on your site. Check with any companies that sell items similar to your product or service. See if they have an affiliate marketing link. Or go with a service like Commission Junction a "clearinghouse" of sorts for companies offering an affiliate opportunity.

Do product reviews and blog about it. Companies will let you test their products and then write about it. From what I understand, you can sometimes keep the product you reviewed.......sometimes there is $$$$ involved.

Check back soon for more on Reviews...I am hoping to have a guest blogger on this subject soon!

Join a Blogging Service, like what.ismyblogs.name

You get to blog as you normally would, but you get paid for EVERYONE you refer to this service.

I recently started with this service and love it:

Hope this helps. Now get out there and make some moola!

More on "Make $$$ Blogging"

I just love this service. Take a look at the blog I started the other day:

http://www.athomeonwheels.com

I have found the platform easy to use, and they have a ton of templates to choose from.

And the best thing is, you can blog about what YOU want to, and make money doing it!

Check it out.

If you love blogging like I do,this may be for you.

Although the information below says it is $9.95/mo, right now they have a special going on- it's FREE, sort of.

You have to initially pay the $9.95 through paypal. They reimburse your account within 24 hours- mine was reimbursed in about an hour.

If you sign up 10 people, your blog is free!

It's called....


what.ismyblogs.name


- It's a blog, it's an affiliate program. It's one of the most
exciting opportunities available in our current economic
situation. A simple affiliate program that even many without a
computer are joining. How can this be possible you ask? Here's
how. First off we have made the price of the service very
affordable at only $9.95 per month. So anyone can do this! So,
here it is in a nutshell. You pay for a blog service that will
cost you only $9.95 per month, you then refer others to do the
same and you will be rewarded $1 each month 5 subaffiliates deep. We hear
you laughing! $1 whoopee! Well, it's all in the math, here's
what we mean. Let's use the number 10 since it is a very easy
number to do mental math with. Let's say you refer 10 people and
they sign up for the blogging service, we know you get $10 a month
because you get $1 per each sign up. This is your first level
subaffiliate. Now let's say that each of these 10 people refer
10 people each, you get another $100 a month because 10 people times 10
people equals 100 people and this is your second level of
subaffiliates. OK, getting fun yet? So now, let's say these 100
people each refer 10 people each, that's of course 100 people
times 10 which equals 1000 people and $1000 a month more to you on your
third level of subaffiliates. If you check out the math on the
remaining two levels you will find that on your level four you
will be getting another $10,000 a month and on your level five you will
be getting another $100,000 a month. Sound too good to be true? Is it
worth $9.95 a month for you to find out? If your answer is yes

DO NOT mark my words!!!

Ok, I don't mean to hollar, but I wanted to make my point.

Please, please do not hold me to my word- at least as far as goals, hopes and dreams.

Because dreams and goals can change. Think back to your high school days.

What did you want to do with your life?

Are you doing it now?

Believe it or not, at one time I wanted to be an Archeologist. And a school teacher. And a writer!

So I did work in a daycare center for several years, and did home daycare for about 10 years. Even worked in an elementary school as a resource person.

Did I choose to do this forever?

NOT!

I write, and have been published a few times in a local magazine. But do I write full time?

NO!

Am I an Archeologist?

NO!

At one time, I dreamed of having a houseboat and floating the waters of the world. Ron wanted an RV.

Since I started homeschooling, I want an RV. I want to explore the US, go to historical sites.

Funny how I hated that stuff in school! Now I yearn for it.

Many people get frustrated when they set goals, and fail to achieve them in the time frame that they set.

Other's find themselves half-heartedly trying to achieve goals that they no longer really want to achieve. But they feel as if once a goal is set, it must be met.

Nothing will keep a person "stuck in a rut" and "underachieveing"  more than working for something we don't even desire.

So sit down and take a second look at your long term hopes, dreams and goals.

Have they changed?

Write new ones!

Are they the same, but you just need more time? Change your goal date.

Find something you truly desire and see if you don't find yourself jumping out of bed every morning eager to get to work and fulfill that dream!

Until next time......

See you at the top!

I'm here, where are you?

January was a busy month here. Trying to catch up after Christmas, starting a new homeschooling blog and preparing (I hope) to go on the road in the fall, expanding my business and "roadschooling" my daughter. I've been looking for a trailer to travel in.

Homeschooling and Roadschooling are some of the cool advantages that can come as a result of working at home. Your time is pretty much your own. Barring our medical appointments, what is really stopping me from traveling the US? Not much!

Even if you "dry camp" on "boondock" , which usually means free camping ( usually on state land) without hook-ups for elect. and water, you can still work. Free Internet cafe's, satellite dishes for Internet, cell phone cards, etc...all provide Internet. Cell phones provide the phone, and you can get solar panels to keep your batteries charged so you have electric.

Working at home also gives you the freedom to be a scout leader, a sports coach, youth group leader and more. Your children will be positively effected by hanging with you more..........

You also receive some GREAT home office deductions, and save on a babysitter and gas. And the time you save because you are no longer commuting to work....

What's stopping you?
