The Wealth Gang

I just came across this video that nicely outlines how to start a blog for profit. No hype – just the facts on how anyone can quickly and easily make money blogging. You can do it on a shoestring budget and in your spare time. If you can stick it out, there’s no doubt that you’ll start to see profits in a short time, and have a nice secondary income in about 4 – 6 months when done correctly.

Of course if you already know what you’re doing, then you know a six-figure business in 2-3 months with little effort.

How to Start a Blog for Profit…

Make Serious Cash With Blogging to The Bank

One thing I’ve learned in the short time that I’ve been running The Wealth Gang is that the biggest challenge people face with making money online has nothing to do with the actually making money… it has to do with themselves.

I can’t tell you the number of emails I get from people that tell me they started a blog and haven’t made any money and need my help. Like a fool, I’ll actually go to look at their website and guess what? There’s nothing there.

Pardon my language, but how the hell do you think you can make any money on your website without a freakin’ website? Just because you started a blog and wrote one worthless “About me” page doesn’t entitle you to making any money. The methods I outline need to be put into action. They may seem simple, and that’s because it is.

It is incredibly easy to make money online, but the biggest challenge for people seem to be getting off their butts and doing something about it. If you want a serious change in lifestyle, dedicate 45 minutes a day to building your business. You can make a ton of cash… I’m certain of that and I know a lot of other people that have done the same. Heck, I’ve met people that found this website and started to implement these strategies and are starting to make a nice income in their spare time.

The only challenge is you. Don’t try to “figure it out” and “find the secret.” There is no secret.

The more content you create, the more ways people have to find your site in Google. This won’t come on it’s own unless you pay someone to create content for you. Otherwise you actually have to do it yourself.

I’m very happy to review websites (feel free to leave yours in the comments below), but I refuse to help people that won’t help themselves. It’s a waste of my time and, quite frankly, those people will never succeed so I recommend giving up.

But, if you put in the effort and think about actually trying to build a business rather than figuring out how to crack some code that doesn’t exist, you will actually make money. It is possible, but you have to make that reality possible for yourself.

If you haven’t taken the steps to start making real money, start right now. Refer back to Building Your First Website…

If you’re hard at work and waiting for the big payoff, hang in there. It will come. The Internet has a mysterious way of rewarding those who work hard. And if you need a little inspiration, check this out…

If you’ve started to make money with AdSense, you may be wondering how much of an income you can actually make from Google. Can pennies a day really add up to a lucrative, relaxing lifestyle?

There are many people and websites cashing in on Google AdSense and making a lot of money. These aren’t your big time website marketers either. Everyday people have their own little niche blog that completely by accident started making a heck of a lot of money. I’m not just talking about a few hundred dollars a day either. Many people are able to produce $20 – 50,000 a month, while I’ve seen checks for as much as $900,000 from one month (granted it was in Canadian dollars – but still!).

Now the chances of single handily building a website that produces over $900,000 in a single month is rare. It’s obviously doable, but it’s by no means average results. But you can effectively build a website that makes $300 a day or more. All you need is…

1. Traffic
2. Competitive Keywords
3. The Highest Paying Niches

Here’s the nice thing about making money with Google AdSense… you don’t even necessarily need quality traffic. Most Internet marketing strategies are built around getting highly targeted traffic to your website. But with AdSense, you’re not selling anything. All you need to do is get people to your site and optimize it to make the most amount of money.

We talked about how to optimize your site by picking the best AdSense placement and colors before, so we won’t rehash that. But you remember that it is important that your website is about a topic that is very competitive. That way the AdSense ads that run on your site are very expensive ads to the advertiser.

The more it costs the advertiser, the more money you make.

And because Google makes money when you make money, they are more than happy to pay out these gigantic paychecks. What’s interesting is how Marcus from PlentyofFish works by himself (no employees and from home), and just 2 hours a day. It’s doubtful it will be $900,000 a month, but even 1% of that is $9,000 a month (or $108,000 a year).

Here’s one tip… Have you ever seen AdSense clicks that make you $0.03.  That’s kind of frustrating. You can get 100 clicks on your ads and only make $3. But if you have those expensive ads running on your website (like investing, diet, dating), you could make $2 – $5 a click. Now instead of only making $3 from 100 clicks you are making $500 for the same amount of work.

See how important that is!

The bottom line is that you can make a ton of money with Google AdWords. All you need is lots of traffic and picking a competitive category to blog about. Both of which are fairly easy things to do.
