How to use Blogs to make money Online part 2

For those of you joining us now can catch up by reading How to use Blogs to make money Online part 1

This chapter would provide beginners with a solid foundation on how to create a perfect Online business.Before going furthur let's quickly brush up some of the key points of chapter 1.As I mentioned, the best place to begin is with your own Blog. Why? Simple... Blogs are free and they are an excellent way to learn the basics of Online marketing without spending money to do it. Start with one Blog and learn how to tweak it using SEO techniques that I will give you as we move along.ultimately we want your blog indexed by google.If you do this correctly,google will eventually start sending traffic to your Blog.
Now let's get familiar with a few terms so that we will have a better understanding of what we are trying to accomplish.

1)Page Content:Search engines like unique content especially google.This will ceratinly be helpful for your Blog to get indexed quickly.So i would recommend you to use unique and original content.If you copy and paste content found elsewhere on the Internet you won't get indexed very fast and usually not at all.You can also get into copyright infringement doing this.

2)Keywords:This is very important for getting your site indexed under relevant category.For example if you are starting a Blog on "Human evolution" you better do some research on this topic and let the search engines know what it is all about.Avoid using your keywords too many times as this would get you into trouble as google will see your site as a spamming Blog and your site could be deleted from its index.Remember you can use your keyword 6 or 7 times per one hundred words.This is very important.

3)Site content volume:The more pages you produce the better and merrier because search engines like content.If ask why?think of it his way if you write just one article on a particular subject,how much info can you give in three or four hundred words.
If my site is about "Fishing" and has got thousand pages on evrything that is to know about fishing then i assure you my site would get listed for every qury made about fishing.Do you see what i mean? The more you get listed the greater the traffic will be and more ad clicks you get.

4)Age of the Blog or site:The older the site the better.This is not crucial but Google will give older sites a higher preference over new sites simply to eliminate all the spam Blogs and sites that are created daily from dominating its index.This can be overcome with the proper technique.

5)Backlinks:What are back links? They are links placed on other websites or Blogs or forums or directories that connect people to your site. In other words they are click-able links that point back at your site (called hypertext). The theory is that the more sites that have links pointing back at your site the more important your site must be. This makes sense. If other sites are sending traffic to your site then you must be some kind of authority for your niche or topic. As a result Google will give you a higher page rank because of your importance.With a higher page rank your site will then get listed higher in the searches.
The good news is that it is easy to get lots of relevant backlinks. I will get back to this shortly.

6)Page Rank:Every site is ranked between 0 and 10. The higher the number the more important your site is. If your site is a 10 then I guarantee your site will be listed on the first page and no doubt in the top position. Currently the new Blog you set up has a ranking of 0 (zero). Content and the age of your site will gain you some ranking over time. If you do nothing else but post unique content then you might get a ranking of 2 in a year from now, possibly sooner. A ranking of 2 will not get you much traffic. How can you speed up your ranking? Simple... get back links and get lots of them.

7)Google sandbox:You may or may not of heard about the sandbox effect. When it comes to Google nobody really knows the whole story on how they tweak their system. One of the most confusing programs they employ is the sandbox a system that keeps your site off the charts for a indeterminate period of time. This is in order to stop spam sites from getting listed fast. A new site may sit in the sandbox for 6 months collecting quality backlinks and lots of unique content and still not get listed in the searches. Then one day you find Google suddenly recognizes all the back links and content and bumps your site way up the charts.

I have several good sites that have been in the sandbox for several months now. This is normal and I have learned to be patient and use the time to get good backlinks and keep adding content. The confusing part is that this particular Blog you are reading spent zero time in the sandbox. Google indexed this site in 3 days and has credited me with many backlinks already. This has meant traffic has been coming from the search engines since practically day one. I still don't have a ranking yet (all the backlinks are from O page rank sites) and yet my keywords are being placed on the first few pages of the listings. This blows me away as this Blog is less than two months old and I am already high in the listings for certain keywords.

Alright it's time for some action.Having a little clue of what the above mentioned terms mean,write an article about your Blog's subject matter and post it.

Here's the rules:

a)Your post must contain 400 words approximately.

b)You must Use your keywords 24 times throughout the whole article.

c)Use your keyword in the Blog post title.

d)Use your keyword in the first sentence.

e)Use your keyword in the final sentence.

f)Try and put your Keyword in Bold type at least once in the article.

g)Put your link in the link field so that the post links back to your site.

Now go and post your article on your Blog.

Once you are done with your Blog go to Goarticles.com

Select submit/edit an article.Fill out the info to join Goarticles.com (It's free) and then I want you to re-write your article leaving all your keywords the same but use synonyms for all the rest of the main words.Synonyms are words that mean the same thing as the original word. ie. "New" is a synonym for "Original".Some people won't know this
I'm asking you to do this so that you have two articles that have same stuff but written differently.You will post the second article on Goarticles.com.

Note: After posting the first lesson on blogging I posted a second article at Goarticles - to see how different the two posts are you can see the second article here Online money making basics for beginners.

If Google finds duplicate articles they will not index the pages that the articles are on. This way you will get your Blog indexed. The Goarticle posting is what will get you those free and easy backlinks I was talking about earlier. I will explain more about this in the next lesson.

Let's say you are building a Blog on "Online money making".

Your Blog post title should be just "Make money Online". The less extra words the better. You could add more keywords though... like "Make Money Online using Blogs" or "Online money making basics for beginners".

Your final sentence in the article would be something like, "Thanks for visiting my Online money making site".

Let me show you how to add your site's link when you typed Online money making(Should be used only for Goarticles.com)

Here's the html code to create a hyperlink
<*a href="http://takeitfromsree.blogspot.com/">money making <*/a> Please remove those asteriks
(replace money making with your keyword and "takeitfromsree" with your site's url).
If you hover over the link you will see the backlink pointing to takeitfromsree.blogspot.com in your browser window as shown below.

"If you think money making Online is impossble then please read this article".

Now you have inserted a backlink into your article that will point back to your Blog.
You will be surprised how many times others will use your articles as content on their sites.Keep in mind people don't want to create on their own and are happy to copy someone else's work.The sites using your article will likely not get the page indexed as Google will hit them for duplicate content. You won't have to worry because the Goarticles post is different from your Blog post
Your competition actually helps you by giving you backlinks while are conning them by giving them replicated content.You just have to outrun these sites to get top ranking.Stick with me folks and i will show you how.

This brings us to the end of this lesson.Tune in again for lesson 3 of Online money making using Blogs.
