I'm think of starting a blog! :)

    I've been a member here for a while now, so I thought that I should start a blog containing money making techniques, blackhat tools and more. Something like "theuniversitykid".

    I rely feel that I've got some experience now, and I can probably provide you guys with some useful content on my blog :cool:

    One thing that worries me, is that my English is not excellent. It is ok, but far from excellent!

    What do you guys think? Would you guys like to see another blog from The Dude? ;)

    I'd say no. Regardless of your clout, there are a million people out there with blogs on the same subject matter. If you want to be successful and spark interest, the question is: why should people read your blog?

    Form what ive seen, the most successful blog in this sector are run by people who have accumulated large sums of money and are sharing their secrets. Think Shoemoney, John Chow etc. Its kind of hard to listen to someone talk about how to make $100k a month without ever making the money in the first place.

    Also, if you asking for our input before you start spending, it shows you are already not committed to it. Certainty in the mindset will show you will prevail. I have a personal friend who has a new tech blog. While his content is good, he focuses on monetizing it and i tell him to get a good following beforee he worry about money. This is something that everyone who thinks of starting a blog should take into consideration.

    My advice would be go into this sector, but do it in your native language, and appeal to that crowd.

    To have your blog will cost you 10-15 USD (domain and hosting), Wordpress as software (free),,, now DO IT! You ask silly questions, just DO IT! You will see if you have readers or not. After that try Digg with your blog...

    Good luck now!

    Guys, I will go for it. Domain and hosting is already bought.

    Some of you says money making blogs are saturated. Theuniversitykid started months ago, and I would have to say it is successful.

    This blog wont be a "How to make $1000 every day". I will give realistic and good ideas on how to make money online, and share my tips and techniques! I already have 3-4 unique topics to write about! :)

    Don't start a "make money" blog unless you've got something truly innovative information to offer...there are already thousands of those types of blogs, most of them are sitting in cyberspace doing a whole lot of nothing.

    If you want to start a blog, do a lot of keyword research on a topic you think is unsaturated online. Something that's still fresh and new in the blog world...pick a niche, and stick with it. There are still plenty out there, the key is finding it.

    Instead of asking others would you like another blog about so and so niche, why don't you just sit back and ask yourself something like "how can I make a blog that is better than others, interest more readers than others, etc. Another blog is just another blog to me and I think there are enough already, but if you can make your blog stand out from the rest then that's totally different.

    Here i have a suggestion for you,you can use word 2000 / 2003 to check your articles,if there is something wrong,word will tell you.

    Besides,your site is quite good looking,here is mine http://www.infonetguide.com,i'd suggest you just keep creating unique articles for your own site.

    Good luck dude.
