Making $100 a day from your blog is really easy. In fact, you should feel very dumb if you’re not.

A successful person makes reasonable goals and achieves them.

If you want to be successful in anything you have to make short-term and long-term goals. The same thing goes for making money from your blog.

Have you heard of the latest in talk radio? If not let me fell you in on it. The talk radio of old was when your Grandpa and Grandma sat around the old dial tune box radio listen to things like “Only The Shadow Knows”or getting scared out of their pants lessening to ” War Of The Worlds” Now that was some powerful radio back then.

When radio started there was only AM channels and most of them was talk and story telling. Yes there was music too,but with no TVs out yet radio was the only entertainment around,unless there was a cock fight going on somewhere.

Podcasting is a method of delivering files to the internet. These files can be downloaded to an instrument, generally an iPod, via an RSS feed. RSS is a family of web feed formats used to publish frequently updated digital content, such as blogs, news feeds or podcasts. The initials “RSS” are variously used to refer to the following standards: Really Simple Syndication (RSS 2.0), Rich Site Summary (RSS 0.91, RSS 1.0) and RDF Site Summary (RSS 0.9 and 1.0). A video podcast is like a regular podcast but in video format. That is, it is a video clip designed to be viewed in a portable device.

The difference between a successful blog and one that fades into nothing is in the number of readers visiting each day. If your goal is to create a large source of income from your site then attracting more visitors is key. This means that you need to increase both your new or unique traffic as well as regular readers.


Create a Loyal Readership


RSS Feed

This is one of the most basic pieces of the blog puzzle which creates a stable group of visitors reading each of your daily postings. An RSS feed notifies your readers that you have created another article and made a new posting on your blog. The RSS feed will also help create a stream of income as more visitors mean a higher page ranking and better search placement.


Social Networks and Engines

There are a number of social bookmarks and other networks available for blogs to utilize. Using a small piece of code on your website, each of your posts can be bookmarked, shared and voted on by readers around the world. Some blogger favorites are Digg, Technorati and Del.icio.us.


Friends and Family

When starting any new business you should first have the support of your family and friends! Let them know that you’ve started a blog and get them to visit on a regular basis. While this will increase your readership immediately, they can also support you by book marking your postings, referring their friends and talking about it with colleagues.


Increase New and Unique Traffic


Search Engine Optimization

The old saying, “it’s easier to keep a customer than find a new one” truly fits on the web. Attracting new visitors will be through a combination of regular postings, great content and search engine optimization techniques. When creating a new article, think about who will be visiting the site and what they will be searching for. Decide upon your main keywords and use them throughout the body of the post.


Niche Marketing

This technique requires a little additional work but it will pay off with a huge amount of traffic. By looking for optimized search terms with low competition you can direct a huge amount of free traffic to your site. The best part about niche marketing is that everything you do costs nothing and the traffic you receive will be hungry for what you’re offering!


Final Thoughts

Each of these tactics takes some time to implement on your site. The important thing to remember is that any source of residual income can only run on auto-pilot after the preparation work is done. By using these techniques within your blog strategy, you will find that your traffic will increase significantly and your increased income will follow!

Do you want a fast and easy little Web site to showcase your hobby or your family vacation? You can build such a site for little or no money, and without learning coding or scripting. Essentially, you need two things: A Web host to store your Web site, and Web pages to publish.

Finding a Web Host

A Web host is a service that stores Web sites on special computers called servers. The servers have an Internet connection that allows the surfing public to view the Web pages online. Your home computer can also store your Web pages, but those pages are not accessible to Web surfers.

One of the biggest challenges webmasters face is bandwidth theft and the problem is that many internet users are unaware what hotlinking is.

Hotlinking, also known as bandwidth theft is direct linking to a web site’s files. When you link to an image on someone else’s server instead of saving the image to your computer and uploading it to your blog you are stealing that websites bandwidth.

Most websites have a limited amount of data transfer (or bandwidth) allowed. If they go over this limit, it costs them extra. Stealing bandwidth therefore unnecessarily increases the cost of hosting. Also, with many hosts limiting the amount of bandwidth a site can use monthly, their site could be shut down for exceeding bandwidth quota.

Almost everyone would like to make some extra money. Many people turn to the internet as a way to make some extra money, or even as their entire income.
.
If you’re interested in making money online I would recommend that you use Adsense and affiliate programs.

Adsense is an ad program that is owned by Google. Google displays relevant ads on your site and you get paid for those ads.

Google Adsense pays you on a cpc (cost per click) basis. This means that every time one of your ads gets clicked on you get paid.
You can not however click on your own ads or encourage others to click on them.
