Hi, I am not promoting any thing but i just wanted to share one of my experience with all of the DP members who are using Adsense. Like i wrote a Forex related article (link to the same is in my signature) some 4 months ago. I did not promoted it any where. I just added it to my DPF Signatures and traffic from DPF and some search engines had made me more then $10. This is just one article on free blogging service i.e blogger.com. I was just wondering if i write 1 article a day, just one article, nothing much more i would have 30 articles in one month and this means that in four month i would have estimated atleast $100 in revenue from this. I think is good money for just 1 hour a day work. What do you say ?
It's going to take a lot more than that... but at least you're on the right track and writing your own articles.
This was just free money.. what i got from Adsense for just one article but i think i would like to promote my blog when i get serious about it. World_Peace
I have one blog on blogspot that earns about $10 a month ... I was intending to update it regularly, but put a few posts on it and then haven't went near it since... I haven't had the time. I checked my stats since I first started using Adsense, and it has the highest eCPM from all my efforts... I never really advertised it, but I did link to it from a related site so that it had at least one link into it. Blogs on blogspot CAN make money if you can't afford to pay for hosting... however, they should not be relied on and at the end of the day, they will only earn if the content is appealing to somebody... (unique, original and useful). Obviously I cannot retire on $10 a month from income I get through a free blog - but if someone really needs to earn some money and is unable to afford webhosting, then a blogger.com blog is a viable way to start... it will take time and dedication and my advice would be to get your own hosting when you can afford it, so that you can have 100% control of your content.
Okay. I go with you... I would get my self a new hosting.. This would be good i think but do you have any host recommendations.
I have no open suggestions on which host you choose, but they will need to provide php/MySql at the very minimum... for something like wordpress at least. If your target audience is in USA, then try to use a USA based host service. You could get a .com, .net, .org or .us (or any non-country specific domain name extension). If your target is in UK, then try to use a UK based hosting service and look at getting a .co.uk domain name. Basically, it depends where you target audience is where you should look for hosting. Ideally, the host will be in the same country as your target audience and your domain name should have an extension for the country you are targeting. It may not help much, but it could help a little bit in getting ranked better in search results for your target audience. If you just have one domain, then almost any shared host would be good enough to run a basic website. If you want to try a couple of different sites, then look at a lot cost VPS solution. Good Luck.
I have a domain name (ThebloggerWorld.com). Now this domain name basically pointed to bloggers only. So i think developing it would be something good and another question i have is that shall i also try my hand on medical or high paying keywords related content...
My advice is to forget high paying keywords - it could take 1year or more of constant link building to rank for the most competitive terms. Avoid medical related sites unless you are qualified to give professional advice... otherwise you will just attract spammers and pointless spam comments. For bloggers, I really do not know where to start targeting them as there are several sites that cater to the blogger community... try exploring each of them and seeing if you can offer anything different (or a combination of things that some communities may lack).
