I haven’t had much traffic now, but I still proceed to monetize my blog. Why?

I do not want my current readers to suddenly feel that the blog is filled with advertisements top to bottom. I want to prime them from the start that this is the way my blog is going to look now and in the future. Maybe Read the rest of this entry »

Shoemoney. I’m sure many of you have heard about his success or successes.

A part of his website, Shoemoneytools.com, provide subscribers with the necessary tools to rank higher in search engines, particularly Google.

Monetization.

That’s the commonly used term in the internet marketing industry where you create opportunities to earn money from your websites, be it blogs or any other personal or commercial sites.

In John Chow’s free e-book under recommended money-makers, there are several advertising or affiliate networks that allow you to create this monetizing opportunity. However, I feel that not all should be applied right away unless you have met certain criteria to even make money from it.

I wanted to make my blog pretty. So I went to do a makeover.

Okay. I’ll skip John Chow’s e-book today. I had a much more urgent mission. I had to beautify my blog so that it’ll look presentable to my visitors.

I took the action. That someday came. And so this blog is born.

Does that mean I’ll be successful? Well, I hope it’ll happen someday. No more “I hope” or “I wish”. That’s positive thinking.

This is my first post, obviously… :) So I begin with a smile…

The world of internet marketing, affiliate marketing, monetizing blogs etc., all boils down to one common goal: to make money online. Although it is true that there are very successful people in this industry, there are also those who gave up halfway along the journey.

Well, I was one of the latter a couple of years back. I bought some e-books and thought it would be a breeze with such guides. The truth is, such guides are not as straight forward as I thought. There are a lot of unknowns that needs to be dug up to actually make that very first cent. I didn’t make that first cent a couple of years ago, so I gave up.
