Making money and driving traffic to your blog
To begin, you will create a new Blogger blog;
review and navigate the Dashboard;
and learn how to create, edit, delete,
and schedule posts. Posts are the
substance of a
blog and should be regularly
published, not only to keep your readers
interestedin following your blog but to
help improve your online ranking.
Use labels to categorize
blog content with adsence
and allow visitors to quickly find
what they are looking for.
A
Google Search Box can also be added
to assist visitors in searching your site.
Once your blog is setup, add a personal
touch by adding a theme, adjusting fonts and colors, and
adding desired gadgets sidebar items,
as well as learn how to install a custom banner
adsense for mobile.
You may customize your blog’s settings
Ads placement, such
as inputting your e-mail address to review comments,
modifying the Blog Description, adding HTML
to put your signature at the end of each new post, or
setting up a custom domain.
It is important to design your blog with your
audience and purpose in mind, and then incorporate
that into the blog layout, color scheme, and overall functionality.
Furthermore, you’ll learn how to make money
with your blog. One of the most popular methods is
by using Google AdSense. Blogger has a
“Monetize” area of the Dashboard specifically to work with
Google AdSense. Many bloggers also add affiliate
links to their sidebars where
you can make money
from referring others to a service or product you
personally use, like, and recommend.
When you insert images into your Blogger
blog, they are automatically stored to a
Picasa Web Album.
You may also create and link to additional
albums. However, when adding an image
to separate your blog posts, a custom
banner or background, you may not
want them added to your gallery and included
with other graphics posted to your blog.
Instead, we’ll review how to use
Google Sites to store, manage,
and use images.
Creating a Blog
The first step in creating a blog is to create a name.
Although Blogger allows you to change your blog’s
address once it is setup, it is important to take time
to think about a name before getting started. The
name of your blog should be related to the purpose
of your blog, whether it’s a personal blog about
yourself in general, goals you have accomplished,
a journey you are on, or a professional blog about a
service or product you provide. If you were blogging
about yourself, you may use your name as the blog
name and therefore part of your blog address.
