Blogging For Money - Business Opportunity By Wendy Pearson
‘A blog is basically a journal that is available on the web. The activity of updating a blog is “blogging” and someone who keeps a blog is a “blogger.” Blogs are typically updated daily using software that allows people with little or no technical background to update and maintain the blog. Postings on a blog are almost always arranged in chronological order with the most recent additions featured most prominently.’
As an indication of where we are as a society, there are a number of blogging business opportunities available for people who know their way around the Internet. With all sorts of interesting things like Google AdSense and other ways for people to get paid, the blog business opportunity is bigger than ever. You should be careful if you are going to consider this because you need to know how the rules are played and you need to know what counts and what does not and you need to know how you will get paid. All of these are things to consider and things which should be known when you are considering the blog business opportunity. While this can be a great way to add extra income and enhance your financial situation you need to make sure you know what to expect.
Blog is short for "web log", which is basically just someone's account of what happened somewhere. If five
friends go to restaurant and one of them writes for a restaurant blog, that's considered valid. If there is one overzealous content producer who in his spare time writes a blog about theater, that's completely legitimate. If there is a disgruntled hotel worker who maintains a blog while she is at work on the graveyard shift about how much she hates her job, that is considered valid. The fun thing about all these different types of businesses is that they all can make you money.
Blogging for money is the same as anything else and it's all about driving traffic to your blog. The more people who read your blog then the more money you are likely to make. There is the added bonus that you can put advertisements on your blog that are related to your topic of your blog or the subjects of your various posts and these can make you money as well. It would seem, with money being made at weblogs, that the old archetype of the "website" may be becoming obsolete. While that statement may be a little bit ahead of its time, there will likely be a day when webpages as we know them today are no longer. The blog is a comfortable format that we are all very familiar with as we've all had to keep journals in grade school and many of us probably kept diaries outside of school. So we all are familiar with the daily entry format of the single thought process that goes along and takes you from one thing to the next to the next.
