# 1 Patience And Persistance

The one big secret to blogging success is patience. Because it takes a while and will require a bit of attention to start generating leads and sales conversions, many 'would be' blog success stories quit before their blog has even had a chance to get listed in the search engines.

Anyone can create a blog. Having a blog and making sure it's up-to-date with the latest information about your specific niche is not hard. All you have to do is plan out what you're going to be blogging about, write your articles (or outsource them) and post regularly. It's totally up to you what you post, however, you want to make sure the content is compelling enough so your readers will want to read more and come back looking for more information about your specific subject.

Becoming familiar with search engine optimization (SEO) will serve you well. SEO will allow you to rank better in the search engines, and what that means is that more people who are searching for your specific niche will find your blog as a result. The basics of SEO are to find keywords and keyword phrases that people use to find your niche. Then write articles, blog posts, and various other content using those keywords and keyword phrases. The search engines will find the articles and blog posts, rank you for those terms, and then people will be able to find you in the search engines.

Other ways of promoting your blog involve exchanging links with other sites, guest posting on other blogs, commenting on other blogs and forums, and continuing to promote by writing more web content for your blog and your website.

As time goes by and you develop a readership, you may want to create a digital product to give away in exchange for an e-mail address from our readers. That way you will be able to start building a list that you can market to again and again.

Blogging to get exposure for your small business is not rocket science, however, it's something you need to do consistently and persistently. Don't give up, people will find you if you keep blogging and continue putting up interesting content that people want to read.

Does Adsense Work?

If you are anything like me your wondering how the hell are people making money of Google AdSense? I bet everyday your eager to check you stats but only finding disappointment. AdSense is a crock of shit in my opinion! Even if your the best blogger out there raking in six figures consistently...I can assure you that the money is not legitimately coming from Google AdSense. Don't get me wrong, you can make some money but nothing extraordinary.

There are many avenues for making a healthy income online, but Google AdSense is not one of them. This is my first blog on something negative, so hopefully you will learn from my mistakes and choose the right methods for making money online. I've tried almost every trick available and spent thousands of dollars trying to crack the code to making money online, so believe me when I tell you what works and does not work. There is enough cash to go around so don't worry, I'm not like the majority of money hungry mongrels that roam this earth feeding of the less fortunate like a parasite. My world is a world full of giving and sharing, not of swindling and deceiving. Just as history will tell you "to give is to receive" and your outcome is definitely determined by your intentions.
