Start with Blogging to Make money
Dec 26th
The very first thing you should consider starting with when it comes
to making money online is blogging. If you establish a blog, not
only is it free, but you can monetize it in several ways.
What is a blog? A blog, originally known as “weblog” is a continuous
string of posts that you make about whatever you want to talk about.
It can be reviews, information about your particular niche, or just
what your thoughts are on the world at hand. If you are sharing
valuable information in a particular “niche” you can actually get
sponsors to post ads on your blog. However it is easier to monetize
your blog in other ways.
For instance, there is Google. Google has the “Adsense Program”,
named because the ads actually “sense” what you are blogging about
and match the topics accordingly. I will have more information on
Adsense for you shortly. There is also something very smart that you
can do. You can advertise other people’s products on your blog, by
being an “affiliate” for them. I’ll be going over that as well.
For now, the most common thing to do is to get your free “Wordpress”
blog and install it on your server. That isn’t very hard to do. So
go ahead to Wordpress.com now and download and install your free
Wordpress blog and let’s forge ahead!
The simplest form of making money online: Adsense!

There is no doubt that you have seen those little “mini-ads” that
pop up on websites throughout the web. Those little
ads are something that you may someday place yourself on other
people’s pages. For now, though, consider this – if you take those
ads and place them on your blog, or your website.. YOU will get paid
anytime somebody clicks on them!
Best Free HTML Editor for Download
Dec 23rd
One thing you will need when making simple web pages of your own, also known as “mini-sites”, and for other very simple tasks, is a web page editor.
While you can do it in Microsoft Word, Wordpad and other text editors, many folks choose to start out by download the free program called Kompozer, formerly known as NVU. This type of html editor is known as WYSIWYG ( or What You See Is What You Get).
It saves a whole lot of work and study in your biginning stages of learning html coding. You need to learn this before you move on to the more often used coding called xhtml. Don’t worry, it will make alot more sense as you gain knowledge and experience.
The Graphical User Interface of Kompozer makes it very easy to use, but it is a powerful program. There are tutorials on how to use it online as well.
One way you will use Kompozer in a very simple fashion is to change the name on sales pages so that YOUR name appears on them. You can do other simple tasks like changing the price, adding a “form” from your autoresponder so you capture folks information such as their name and email, and more. These are all basic functions that are simple to do, and you should make sure you learn to do them as we progress.
So go download what could be the best freebie ever, Kompozer, and have a blast!
