Quick guide to word press money blog’s part 1

Posted on 02/21/09 in Sem, 2 Comments

If you’re just starting off in the blogging world or even thinking about setting up a website that can earn you a little bit of extra cash then you need to read all of this post. I don’t guarantee it will work for all of you as it will take some dedication and time on your behalf to get your WP money blog going. At least you won’t be wasting your hard earned cash on get rich quick schemes as there is no quick solution to getting rich unless your born minted.
Most of the ads you see in Google are a tone of crap and written by ghost writers to manipulate those who are desperate to earn extra income.

Some of my favourite bull titles:

Make 500 a day
Money while you sleep
1 dollar goldmines
The blueprint to success
How I made more money than my dad
Work only 30 min’s a day and make truck loads of cash

Where to start

First off you will need to get yourself a nice domain name, typically related to products as most likely as a first time money blogger you are going to be selling affiliate goods. I still buy my domains at go daddy after market as they are cheaper. but before I buy ,I do a little background check on the domain to see if it has had any history as it’s better to buy older domain’s rather than a new one’s simply because of trusts factors with Google.
Ok now you found a few domains that sound good and need you now check out how old they are “simply Google a domain age tool and paste in your chosen domains in the domain tool box and you should get some info on how old they are. I also use the way back when machine to go back in time and see if the domain was previously indexed in the search engines and what was the websites theme.  If a domain has history in search engines you have better chance of starting to rank in the results in a shorter space of time but you will still need to optimise your new blog.

Hosting your domain or multiple domains

So we need to find some good hosting that allows you to host loads of domains without having to buy a hosting account for each domain.  Currently I use webhostingpad as its cheap reliable and let’s me host as many domains as I want for about 5 dollars a month.  All you will need to do is change the DNS of your purchased domain and point  it or them to where you have your hosting.  I forgot to mention that most hosting account’s  that run cpanel have fantastico that lets you install word press with a click of a button.

Quick recap

so far we have a nice domain or domains, cheap hosting and the latest version or wordpress installed ,all you need to do now is give yourself a hug and say well done me were almost there.
Now that we have acknowledged ourselves with some love it’s time to move on to the next part 2 and I will be posting that in a few days so check back or subscribe to my RSS.
