Hi guys, Over the last few years, I have been traveling extensively to different countries and have written restaurant reviews in a very personal tone...and have a great collection on pics with it... I wanna monetise from the material I have, and was wondering should I go for a blog or for a website?? Also, if I should go for a blog, should I choose WP or blogger??? And if a websyt...can I use a plain WP theme based one...?? Also, other than great content what are the things to be kept in mind to get in maximum number of traffic???? Any guidance?? I am a newbie....need help...
If you are planning to not to spend money on hosting, then go for blogger instead of WP. This is because WP is not free when your content usage is more than a certain amount. Any theme will do basically, just remember that you need themes that allow you to share your pictures the way you want because sharing pictures to online fellas is part of your consideration right? Great content with good keywords is my word for you to get in maximum number of traffic and indexed good in SE. good luck!
Thanks John...I dont mind spending a bit on hosting ..but is there any difference in the monetising factor...or the traffic coming on it??
Marx here. I believe you could: 1) go with a network of online portals comprised of a site with a blog and an ecommerce portal or perhaps even a forum... 2) of course come up with the top 3 most searched and high paying keywords/keyphrases on your niche on a daily basis... 3) create helpful site article content, blog post content, ecommerce review content, forum content, and 2 articles (for article marketing purposes) for each of those keywords each day... 4) drop keyword backlinks on the profile page of each PR6-above dofollow site relevant to your niche and contribute valuable content on the site each day (3-5 helpful contributions to each of these sites, maybe focus on 4-7 sites, each day)... 5) repeat steps 1-4... 6) monitor your success at the end of each week in order to change or improve your taskflow systems, and... 7) once you're earning lots of money, outsource these tasks to a highly skilled virtual assistant charging silly rates for high quality work so you can work on other projects. Keep in mind that CPA, CPC and CPM programs will best moneytize your business. Thanks.
