Next Step - Posting

Friday, March 20th, 2009

OK, you found your topic you want talk about, a great Domain-Name, the right web hoster and your blog is already online. So what´s next?

Right, now it is time to start posting. So write your post about that you want to tell your readers depending on your Blog-topic. Yes you can of course also insert some other interesting things or a picture why not but in principle you should stay with your blog-topic and a continuing content. And that is very very very important. Continuing content, that should be the reason why other will visit your blog and search engines like yahoo or google will show your blog as a possible solution after a request of a key word that match to your blog-topic, categories or tag of your post. Feel free about the amount of post you will write. There is no golden rule about that. But you can be sure if your blog will run well you also will be motivated to write at least on post per day but that is the future……. now there are a lot of other things to do.

How to Start?

Monday, March 16th, 2009

The very first thing you have to do is to think about that what you want to blog about.

My advice here is, take something you know and something you like to blog about. Why? You will be much more motivated to write a good content and to continue posting as often you can. It does not make sense to try to write about something you think it will bring money to you. That is hard, very hard an you will lose your motivation to write post about that topic and you will fail. And if you look at some successful blogs you will see that you can blog about everything and you can also make money with every of your blog so do not think about what will bring money but what kind of topic you like, where is your passion.

After you know what your blog will be about you will need a Domain Name. This starts the creative part. Try to pick a name that is concise, not too long, fits your topic.

Than you have to choose a home for your blog and Domain Name. You can find several free blog services but my advice is it to choose a paid one with a good service and with your own Domain Name, that is very important if you want to gain a good blog.

Last but not least – making your own blog you should have your own style! Yes visit other blog and you will find some great ideas for your blog but do not copy everything. So please be YOU on your blog with your own style.

A small tip at the end: Also do not fill up your blog with too much Ads. That does not looks good and that is not that what will bring the money to you.
