How
to Blog 4 Cash
A
step by step instruction manual to setup a blog
that will form the centerpiece of your internet
business. Easy enough to do that anyone can learn
how.
1.
Pick 5-6 markets that you want to look at. These
should be broad topics that you know something
about and feel comfortable working with. An example
would be pets, or a specific pet such as dogs.
From these general topics, you will do some keyword
research to refine them into tight niches.
2.
Download the free marketing course "Mining
Money Online" at www.dynamicme.com/MiningMoneyOnline.
Included in this offer is a 7day trial of IM Advantage
for $4.95. You will need a tool included with
this trial so you can quickly do the keyword research
necessary to find the niche you want to focus
your website on. The tool you need is called "Keywrd
Blueprint". Install it on your computer and
view the instruction video. The reason I highly
recommend this is that it is extremely easy to
use. Pick 6 keyword phrases per market that you
want to focus on. While you are in the trial period,
be sure to look through the other materials there
to get an idea of what is available.
3.
Check out the keyword phrases you found with Keyword
Blueprint using Google's External Keyword Tool.
You can find that at Google
Adwords External Keyword Tool. Type your first
keyword phrase in the box marked: Word or phrase(one
per line). The Global Monthly Search volume should
be at least 1500 per month. Preferably over 3000.
Too high and there's too much competition, too
low and it just isn't worth the trouble. Pick
the best keyword phrase in each topic to use for
your domain name.
4.
If you have a domain registrar you are happy with,
feel free to use them, otherwise go to www.cyberspaceregister.com
and choose a domain name for each topic you chose
to work with. This is my site and I keep the prices
as low as possible to make things easier for my
customers. Use the keyword phrases that you got
from Keyword Blueprint. Example: With the phrase
"internet marketing", you hope to find
a domain name with only that keyword phrase in
it. Example: internetmarketing.com. You want to
use either .com, .net, or .org. Stay away from
the other domain suffixes. If none of those are
available, the next best thing is to hyphenate
it. Example: internet-marketing.com, .net, or.org.
If none of those are available, put a word at
the end of the domain name. Example: internetmarketingelite.com,
.org, or .net. Google likes it better if you own
a domain name for more than one year at a time.
If you can afford it, purchase them for at least
2 years, even 5
years may be better.
5.
Now, you'll need web hosting. Free blogs or free
websites just don't have the reliablity, or the
ability to get good search engine rankings from
Google, and the other engines. The best hosting
for beginner to intermediate marketers is at Host
Monster. This is the most reliable low cost
host around. You purchase one account for $4.95
per month a year in advance. Even cheaper monthly
costs are available for purchasing 2 or more years.
You can put unlimted domains on one account, so
you can begin expanding your enterprise right
away. Purchase
through this link and I'll personally help you
get it setup and get you started.
6.
Now it's time to setup your blog. Go to your control
panel at HostMonster.com and point your name servers
to your hosting company. Feel free to call me
at 419-424-3896 and I will walk you through this.
It's not difficult, but there are a few gotchas.
7.
Once you have that running, you'll need to setup
your Wordpress blog. The easiest, fastest way
to do that is at Wordpress
Direct. They have a 15 day free trial. Pick
it up through this link. I've been using these
guys for 6 months now, and I've found their system
to be extremely reliable.
8.
Once you've set this up, you'll put up your own
posts, and start linking in from other sites.
Build it slowly and you should have no problems.
