4. Blogging Profit Formula CHOOSING YOUR TOPICFirst things first, we need to find a topic to base your blog around.The ideal scenario is to choose something you are passionate about and which there isalso a large, profitable market for. An important piece of advice is to note rule anything out.Even the wackiest ideas and the tiniest niches can be highly profitable…Take owl collecting (not the real thing!). You could write a blog about owl collecting andthen monetize it through being an eBay affiliate.A good place to start is to check out the number of searches on the Google ExternalKeyword Tool (https://adwords.google.com/select/KeywordToolExternal) for a particularsubject.Check out the results for owls. The numbers arent amazingly high, but there is still a lot ofpotential:Whilst it helps if you have an interest in the topic you choose, my advice would be to go foran ‘evergreen subject’ – one which never goes out of fashion and people ALWAYS have aninterest in. They might not be particularly unique, but in my experience a blog on one ofthe following subjects is sure to be popular: Money Dieting Health and Fitness Relationships ParentingThere is a lot of competition but that isn’t a bad thing. There are BUYERS in these niches.I also found the following list which could be helpful:The Worlds Largest Blog Niche and Topic Idea List:http://www.sparkplugging.com/sparkplug-ceo/the-worlds-largest-blog-niche-and-topic-idea-list/ One of the posts recommends that you combine two of the subjects. I think that’s areally good idea, as this would make your blog unique. www.BloggingProfitsecret.Info
5. Blogging Profit FormulaA High Traffic Niche via Keyword ResearchOkay, so by this point you might have a couple of ideas in mind - maybe two or three?This is a way to narrow down that list and make your final decision. At the end of thisprocess, Id suggest you pick the one that has the most traffic potential and that youwouldnt mind writing about on a very regular basis.Take your list of ideas and think carefully about what people would type into the searchengines to find the type of information you want to blog about.Lets work through an example.Lets say we want to blog about Home Business Ideas. What would people type in thesearch engines to get more information on this subject? home business ideas how to make money from home home based business ideas legitimate work at home jobs work at home businessesThose were just a few from the top of my head.Next, Ill enter these keyword terms onto the Google External Keyword Tool and just lookat the results:Thats one popular niche!We shouldnt worry too much about competition, as your blog is going to be unique, and itwill express your personality if you follow all the advice given in this ebook. www.BloggingProfitsecret.Info

That’s the beauty of blogging –they can be set up very easily and you can be making money from them VERY quicklyindeed… www.BloggingProfitsecret.Info
7. Blogging Profit Formula BUILDING UP YOUR KNOWLEDGESo you’ve found a niche, but how do you know what kind of information people in yourniche crave?Obviously it’s important to know a lot about what you’re blogging about. Ideally you wantyour readers to perceive you as an expert and someone who they can turn to forinformation and advice. Building up your knowledge, then, is essential:It can be a help here to have your list of keywords, which we created in the previouschapter, to help you search out the most relevant information within forums, YahooAnswers, articles and News.At the end of this section I am also going to show you a way which means you will get newinformation on tap - so youll never run out of ideas!Find Forums in Your NicheYour first step in building up your knowledge is to find forums in your niche. This is aseasy as going to Google and typing into the search box “your niche forum”. You will needto find busy forums in your niche and study the HOT topics, as these are the topics whichpeople want to know more about. If people are talking about something then it’s a suresign they have a burning issue or they’re passionate about the topic.When you have located some good forums in your niche, sign yourself up and straightaway make a new post asking whether anyone knows about any other websites,information products, blogs etc on the subject. Find the resources, products, and websitesyour target market like to read and go and read them yourself. It will instantly let you knowthe type of things people like to read about and gives you a flavour for the content/stylepeople enjoy.Get Ideas From Yahoo AnswersAnother place to find the hottest questions (and answers) in your niche is Yahoo Answers(http://answers.yahoo.com/). This is a very popular website where people ask their mostpressing questions about every topic under the sun. It is a goldmine of ideas!Be sure to explore questions and answers on your topic and take notes of interesting onesyou could include and expand on in your blog posts.Although Yahoo Answers is not mentioned in the traffic generation section later on in thereport, it is another great way to get traffic to your blog. If you answer a few questions aday, you will get some traffic coming back to your blog. All you need to do is put your blogURL in the source box. www.BloggingProfitsecret.Info
8. Blogging Profit FormulaExpand Your Knowledge With ArticlesThe best place to go to find articles in your niche is Ezine Articles(http://www.ezinearticles.com). There are quite likely to be 100s of articles on your topic.If you can read and find 10 – 20 quality ones, you can build up your expert knowledgestatus.One bit of advice I will give you here is to look at the Most Viewed Articles and MostPublished Articles in your general subject area. This gives you a good idea of what peoplelike to read about most, and in the past it has given me literally hundreds of ideas for newblog posts.You can find the list of Most Viewed and Most Published articles by scrolling downunderneath each article:Your Topic in The NewsEveryone likes to keep up with the latest trends and news on their favourite subjects, sopart of your job as an expert blogger will be to keep your readers updated. I’ve outlined aneasy way to do this below:How to Get New Knowledge AutomaticallyFirst of all, I recommend you set up a new Gmail account for this method so that all theinformation that can be provided will not be interspersed with your usual emails. So go tohttp://www.googlemail.com and create a new Gmail account.Next go to http://www.google.com/alerts, where we set up a number of alerts to make surethat we get information sent to us automatically when there is new information available www.BloggingProfitsecret.Info
9. Blogging Profit Formulaabout our topic.For example, if I wanted to set up a blog about traffic generation, Id enter that into thesearch terms:I would then select Comprehensive, as this’ll tell me when the search term is mentionedin News, blogs, web, video and groups.The next step would be to select how often – Your choices are once a day, or weekly. Iwould recommend once a day but obviously it’s up to you.Then you select email length: here you have the choice of 20 or 50 results.Lastly, enter in your new email address to get the alerts sent there.Do the same process with your keywords and perhaps a more general term as well tomake sure you cover all bases.You can monitor this email address when you want to find new ideas to blog about. www.BloggingProfitsecret.Info
10. Blogging Profit Formula SETTING UP YOUR BLOGOkay, topic in hand – its time to set up your money making blog.Choosing a Domain NameYou will need to choose and buy a domain name for your blog. To do this, grab your list ofkeywords from the previous chapter and start typing them intohttp://www.namecheap.com, (or another domain name registrar), until you find one that isavailable.Ideally you should aim to register a .com name, however if your preferred name is notavailable then don’t rule out registering a different domain extension, such as a .net or .infoRegistering a good domain name can be difficult and you’ll usually find that the best oneshave already been taken…If you’re struggling for ideas try adding words like ‘News’, ‘blog’, ‘101’, ‘tips’ etc to the endof your domain name, or add a hyphen between the words.If that doesn’t help, try a combination of words - for exampleTheHomeBusinessIdeasBlog.com.Try to make sure you have keywords in your domain name as this really helps in terms ofSEO.Saying that, another option is to use your own name since once you have gained expertstatus in your niche you’ll probably find that people start actively searching for your name.If your business is dedicated to one specific niche then definitely make sure you do this tooas your blog will become the centre point of your business. Take a look at the top internetmarketers – pretty much all of them have registered their own name as a .com, and mostof these seem to link to their own personal blog.Blogger vs WordpressThe two most popular ways to create a blog are through Blogger and Wordpress.Although you can make money from a blog hosted on Blogger.com, there are a few vitalflaws: Google owns your content and can take down your blog at a moments notice. Imagine the pain of two years of hard work and content going down the pan. Blogger has few advanced features, like you cant create categories and its basic platform makes it difficult to format and publish posts. It is difficult to brand yourself, as you cant make many changes to the header to incorporate your logo, for example.Wordpress doesn’t have these restrictions and I would always recommend Wordpress www.BloggingProfitsecret.Info
11. Blogging Profit Formulaover Blogger.What puts people off using Wordpress is that they think that its difficult to install and set up– however follow the guide on the coming pages and you’ll be up and running in no time.Trust me – it isn’t difficult!How to Set up Your Wordpress BlogFor the purposes of this demonstration, I have decided to go with the owl collecting idea Imentioned earlier. So, owlcollectables.com has been purchased fromhttp://www.namecheap.com and I have purchased hosting from Hostgator. I personally useand recommend Hostgator (http://www.hostgator.com) and have found them to beextremely reliable and easy to use. The following process should be similar even if youuse a different hosting provider.Once you’ve registered your domain name for your blog, and have sorted out ahosting account, follow the instructions below: 1. (a) The first thing we need to do is set up the name servers so that the domain name is forwarded to the hosting account. So go to http://www.namecheap.com, login, and you will be taken to the page below. Click on ‘view’:(b) Select the domain name which you’d like to set name servers for and click on ‘EditSelected’: www.BloggingProfitsecret.Info
