    Hello everyone, I'm definately not new to the online world, and I am a web developer, so I LIVE online! I am not so good at the marketing and traffic part of the web though, and I hope to learn more about that here.

    Thanks!

    I just applied for an account so Im waiting to see where that goes. I have 2 site concepts in mind. One is simply a blog(Im told Im very out spoken so I figured I would take a stab at it) and the other site may or may not do well. Its not on a subject that I have seen talked about online a lot but its a niche and if what I am thinking is correct it might take off. My only problem is that I only own 1 domain and its automotive related because I was going to open up a store online but have decided against it. For now both sites are a subdomain untill I can get around to buying some domains.

    I am glad to see your reply that you are talking action and believe me the person who implements will definitely get its fruit sooner or later.

    I suggest you to first only start a blog at blogger.com, as its free too and very easy to control and once you are famaliar with it, may be two months or so, try to post there at daily basis, write quality content as much as you can and promote it.

    You will soon earning in hundreds after the first month.

    Good Luck! Will be back after exams to fully help you and answer your questions too :)

    thanks, I have thought about using blogger but I don't have a solid topic for my blog. The one I put up doesn't really have a specified topic which I found out as soon as I added adsense is a problem. I am working to find a topic that will attract visitors. I am thinking of writing on my expirences with getting a few sites up and running. Altho its not original by any means it might just work. My intrests limit me to something automotive or computer related. Im not sure I might find something I know stuff about thats just off the wall.

    I am currently searching around for free CMS software to use on the other site. I have expirence with many of them and am testing Joomla right now.

    Thanks everyone.

    Im deffinatly having a problem figuring out a solid blog topic that I can come up with consistent and good content. So if anyone could throw some stuff out just to spark the fire it would be really helpful.

    Intrests/stuff I know about:
    Cars
    Car audio(including the PC in a car stuff)
    gadgets
    electrical wiring
    computers
    fabrication
    modding almost any electronics
    music

    I think thats all I really know about but there could be others.

    thanks.

    Hi Tony,
    I would suggest you to PM me and we can talk further. Because suggesting you the niche here is really bad for you as hundreds of more competitors will awake.

    just a quick update. I will be cancelling my hosting(yahoo hosting sucks anyway) and reopening with someone else in a couple weeks to test some stuff. I took GAdsenses advice and started a blog on Blogger. I have adsense running on 3 sites but really only the blog should have got traffic(does blogger have a way to track stats?). Neither of my other 2 sites recorded traffic last night. However I ended up with some impressions and making $.39. I was estatic about it altho its not much but it deffinatly shows me it can work. Very nice and thanks everyone for contributing to this great site.

    Hi Tony,
    Thanks for your quick update.
    I suggest you to go HostGator for Hosting although all depends on your requirements but they are all rounder ausmn,

    Yes there are alot of ways to track the stats for free and you can implement it to the blog too. Go to this site
    http://www.performancing.com/
    and that's the one of the best.

    Thanks to you too for saying thanks to us and asking for help in such a humble and wonderful way and that is a great art in my perspective.

    Good Luck! :)
