Build your Business

You can build an entire business with BLOGS, by building a blog empire. This is actually a great way to make money. There are different types of blog software out there. One’s that you host on your site and others that are hosted on another server, like blogger.  You will need to familiarize yourself with all of these, because this is how you are going to build your Blog Empire and start making money. I want you to know that this isn’t a get rich quick method. There is no such thing. You will need to put some work into this in order for it to work. But it will be well worth it. There will be articles to write, feeds to submit and a lot of researching. There are products that will help to make the work load little less, but the don’t do everything alone. 

How do you make money with Blog’s?  It’s actually quite simple, and there are many different ways to make money. 

1-     Google Adsense

2-     Affiliate Products

3-     Selling ad space (text links or banners)  These can all be combined together, this way you ensure that no matter where they go it will make you money. What can beat that? 

Building Your Very Own Blog Empire

I am going to take you through the steps you will need to take in order to start building this empire. 

First you are going to need to choose your market. Something that you will be able to write fresh content for day after day.  I want to state that you don’t necessarily have to write all of your own content, you can hire a ghostwriter to do this for you, through elance.com or rentacoder.com. Now, you will need to purchase 5 domain names and 5 different hosting from different companies. This is very important, for search engine purposes. You want to appear as if you are 5 different people.   

So you will need to buy those domains privately. 

Then, you will need to install wordpress on all 5 domains. I know that sounded scary, but it’s not. Most cpanels that come with your hosting have a neat little button that you click and it’s all there. That’s called Fantastico, it’s a blue smiley face.  

Here is a company that I use for hosting: WebHost4SEO, this allows you to have one hosting company, but it will appear as if they are different, because you get different blocks of IP’s. The package is called SEO Package. This is very important, as I mentioned earlier for the search engines. This company has very informative video’s to watch that will teach you how to set everything up.

Steps to Installing Wordpress

Step One: Log in to your Cpanel, go to http://www.yourdomain.com/cpanel 

Step Two: Click on that blue smiley face labeled Fantastico.

Step Three: Choose Wordpress link from the left navigation (under the category Blogs) and Click

Step Four: Select the New Installation link

Step Five: Choose if you want to install it as your homepage or in a folder. If you want it to be your homepage then enter nothing. If you want to have it in a folder than simply name the folder, blog or whatever you would like.

Step Six: Enter the username you will use to log into your admin area. 

Step Seven: Enter the password you will use to log into your admin area. 

Step Eight: Enter a Nickname 

Step Nine: Enter the Description of your website (e.g- If your site is about Flowers, then your description would be: The best Flowers on the internet.)  Step Ten: Enter your Email Password (This is provided by your host) 

Step Eleven: Click the Install WordPress button 

Step Twelve: A new screen will come up telling you what the name of your MySql database is and a few other things. Important: Bookmark the link to login to your WordPress control panel. Then Click Finish Installation button.  Step Thirteen: You now have your first blog! Congratulations! Step Fourteen: Repeat Steps 1 thru 12 four more times.

Okay so now that is out of the way.  Now, I highly suggest you investing in Semi-Logic Pro.

It is a special theme (template) for WordPress. This script is very simple to install using an FTP program. What makes this script so important is that it has many plugin’s that will help to get your sites indexed faster than normal. No not instantaneously, but pretty damn fast. If you decide to purchase this script they will have complete video instructions on installing it and setting it up. 

Posting to Your Blogs

All right now that you have your WordPress blogs installed. You will need to add content. There are many different ways that, some simple and some a little more difficult. 

Here’s an easy way, but long way to blog. 

Step One: You log into your admin area, you know that link I told you to Bookmark in Step Twelve. 

Step Two: You click on the Write link on the navigation bar. 

Step Three: Input the Title of your post. (This can be you article title!) 

Step Four: Enter in your content (article). You will need to have keyword rich links in here. These links will be to your other blogs, affiliate product pages. 

Step Five: Click the Publish button. 

Step Six: You can now view your blog.  Step Seven: Now repeat four more times.

Remember you will need to post EVERY SINGLE DAY on all 5 of these blogs. Not to mention the other blogs you will be building. 

Now the quick way. It’s quick but it’s time consuming to set up, but once it’s set up it will do the daily work for you.  There are many programs out there that are designed to make your life easier and do a lot of the grunt work for you. I highly recommend purchasing RSS to Blog, Blog Solutions and Content Solutions. 

Blog Solutions and Content Solutions are from the same company and work together. It’s really great once you figure it out. Now remember how I said that you are going to put your affiliate links on these sites. You will need to sign up for affiliates like http://www.Amazon.com. Most of these big companies will offer you datafeeds for their products. You will use these feeds to create post on your blogs.These are keyword rich datafeeds from your affiliate that will have your affiliate id in there doing the work for you.  So how do you do this? 

It’s easier than it sounds. Using RSS2Blog you will simply input the feed address that is given to you by your affiliate, such as Amazon.  There is a little more involved than just that though. You are going to need to set up RSS2Blog for each site, that means you will need to plug in a bunch of things and create an email address for WordPress to be able to start posting. Check out how simple it is with their videos that you can view before purchasing. 

You will need to create your special secret email for WordPress: 

1-     Log into your hosting cpanel

2-     Create a new email account.

This will be something that nobody would ever be able to figure out. (Use numbers!) You will need to do this for each of your four sites.  You don’t want to use just datafeeds. Your best bet is to mix it up with your own content and the datafeeds.  

Creating Other Blogs

Now that you have your WordPress Blogs up you are going to need to set up some Blogger accounts. The reason for this is for the linking. Search engines love good content and tons of targeted backlinks. So it’s your goal to give them exactly what they want so you can get massive amounts of free traffic. Just like with the hosting and the domain names you are going to need to disguise yourself. So you will need to have multi accounts with different names on them.  Use your family member’s names or make them up. Setting up Blogger.com accounts are pretty straightforward and they offer much help in their support section. So you shouldn’t have a problem. Posting to these blog’s are going to be the same. Using the easy and long way or using the easy and quick way. You decide on the way that you post. But you must post daily. You will want to add google adsense to these blogs. It is simple, there is a link within the admin area that you can click that will automatically insert your ads for you. 

Note: You will need to have an Adsense account. So if you don’t have one, you can set one up through blogger’s site.

How Do You Put It All Together?

All right, you got the blogs up and you are all set to start posting. So now what? The reason why blog’s are crawled by the search engines quicker than a normal website is because of the constant changes to the site, from posting and because after you change your site (add new post) you will ping the search engines notifying them of the change. Then they come and crawl your site and every site that is linked to it.  You can use RSS Submit to submit your feed url to 80 different directories. Using this software will save you a lot of time. Time that is needed to get fresh quality content. There are many techniques and programs that are being used to get you ton’s of backlinks and to ping the search engines. You should definitely open an account with these following companies.

As I said earlier, this is a business, so it’s not something that you can throw up over night, not until you learn the ropes that is. But the money won’t start coming in overnight, if only it was that easy.  Have fun and start building blogs, so the blogging and pinging can begin and you can be one step closer to making money online.
