Best Tips To Make Money Blogging

To make money from blogging you need to build traffic to your blog. In blogging there is no food for a lazy man. Here are my tips for making money blogging.

1) Blog about an area you are vast in. i.e. your blog should tap from your knowledge and experience, something that you can do without much effort. Blogging about a familiar topic will also prevent you from copying other people.

2.) Focus your blog on a theme. i.e. your blog must be targeted to a specific area. Do not start an any-thing-goes blog. You should be able to describe your blog in one sentence.

3.) Know your keywords. Since you have focused your blogging to a theme, find keywords that are relevant to the theme of your blog and write articles that make use of such keywords. In case you do not know, keywords are terms people use when they search on search engines.

4.) Every Page must have a purpose and focus on one, two or three keywords. When blogging an article, ask yourself, If I am looking for information contained in this article, what search terms would I have used. You can also ask your friends, which keywords they would have used. Then write your article in such a way as to include those keywords in your article with out disrupting the flow or losing meaning.

5.) Make sure you register your blog in search engines using webmaster tools. I recommend Google, Yahoo, and Bing. Submit your sitemap via the webmaster tools.

6.) Open Twitter and Facebook page for your Blog.

7.) Register with Blog Directories Like Technorati and Afrigator.

8.) In the first 6 months post something new once everyday or at least 5 times a week. Thereafter, blogging three times a week will be okay. Post quality, keyword-rich and targeted contents. Search engines love content. Give them good content today and they will come back for more tomorrow. The more they love your blog, the more traffic you get.

9.) Make a success of one blog before opening another one. Focus all your effort on one blog. Having lots of blogs all in their infancy stage is very demanding and you may not be able cope. Note that one blog can make more money than ten blogs. What actually counts is traffis, not the number of blogs.

10.) Register with Adsense, copy and paste the Ad units on your blog.

11.) If you use Adsense to monetise, never click on your Adsense Ads or violate any of its terms and conditions. I know people whose Adsense accounts have been closed with the income they earned for violating its terms.

12.) Do not copy other people's work. Copying other people's work is very easy and may even favour you in the short term, but in the long run your bubble will eventually burst. It also deprive you the opportunity of being an authority or a guru in what you do. Sooner than later everyone will know you are a cheat.

13.) Analyse your site using Google webmaster and Google Analytics tool.

14.) Read, Read, Read. There are lots of information about blogging, SEO, social media, Adsense, Ad placement, etc on the web search Google with any of those keywords to read more

15.) And so on.

Making money from blogging is all about traffic new bloggers should focus on building traffic and less on making money. Build traffic to your blog and money will follow. Building traffic takes time, but with hardwork, persistence and the passion for what you do, you will eventually succeed. Most of the steps provided above are all aimed at building traffic.

Airtel 3GB internet plan

Of all Airtel internet browsing bundles, the 3GB plan, also called the Airtel Plus Plan, is probably the most compelling. The Airtel Plus Plan offers 30-day, 24/7 internet access limited to a 3GB data cap.

What makes Airtel 3GB internet plan very attractive?

The Airtel 3GB internet, also called the Airtel Plus plan, offers 30-day 24/7 internet access limited to 3GB for N5,000. Airtel was formally offering 1GB internet access at N5,000. So, with Airtel Plus Internet plan you are getting 3 times more data allowance at the same price. When compared with offerings from other networks within the same range, the Airtel 3GB internet plans stands out as a great deal. It is obviously the best deal you can get on internet access in Nigeria for N5,000. For example Glo and Etisalat offers just 1.5GB data allowance for N5,000, while Etisalat's 3GB Internet browsing bundle goes for N6,500. Airtel 3GB internet browsing bundle is one of the best plan for mid range users.

Who needs Airtel 3GB internet browsing plan?

If your monthly internet data access needs is more than 1GB but less than 3GB, the Airtel Plus internet browsing bundle is probably the best deal for you. If you are an above average user, probably browsing the internet on a 3G coverage area and downloading videos and data files, the Airtel Plus Internet browsing plan is a great entry plan. If you find it inadequate, you can then upgrade to a higher data plan. If all you can spare in a month for internet access is N5,000, the Airtel 3GB internet browsing plan is the best deal for you.

How to access Airtel 3GB Internet?

The Airtel 3GB Internet browsing bundle can be accessed via an internet enabled phone (GPRS/EDGE/WCDMA/HSDPA) or a compatible internet modem. Buy and load Airtel recharge cards worth N5,000 into your internet enabled mobile phone, device, or USB modem and dial *141*712*7#. You will receive an SMS in a short-while informing you of the success or failure of your request. If your request is successful, you now start browsing the internet. In 30-days or on using 3GB, your Airtel Smartphone internet plan will expire. The downside of Airtel internet packages is that you are not alerted when your internet package expires. Once your Airtel internet package expires, your internet access will automatically default to pay as you go at 15kb/s without alerting you. So if you have extra credit on your device, it may be wiped out before you know what is going on.
