I need money, I say it all the time. I also say that money may not bring happiness, but it sure makes life a hell of a lot easier. But I figured out a long time ago that selling your time for money is the wrong way to go. Most people do this when they get paid hourly. They put in their time and they get paid. That means you have to be on the job to make money. How can you travel and do whatever you want when you're tied down to some stupid JOB (Just Over Broke)? A better way is to make money while you sleep. And I found the best way to do that is through blogging.
Blogs Don't Work
I would bet that if you were to look up how to make money while you sleep by using blogs, you'd find that most people discount the method. They will probably say that the interwebs are too saturated and that everyone is trying to use blogs to make money.
While that may be true, I'm going to help you separate yourself from the competition. First, choose your niche.
Your Niche
Your choice of niche can be accomplished in one of two ways. You can either go into the Clickbank marketplace and search for high dollar items or you can use Google's free keyword tool to search for high paying keyword phrases. Either way, you will want to research your niche to make sure that there is a market and that the market in question has money to spend. If you can find that combination, you'll be closer to learning how to make money while you sleep. Trust me.
Keywords
While you're using Google's free keyword tool, research your keywords. Try to find keywords with a moderate global search volume with as little competition as possible. Then, when you find keywords that you like, search for those keywords and keyword phrases in Google using quotes. See how much competition is there.
Professional Blog
You can set up a free blog in Wordpress or Blogger. These platforms make it very easy to set up a fully functioning blog in just a few minutes. But your blog must be professional. So, find the XHeader download. This program is free and will allow you to make professional looking headers that look as though you paid good money for them. You don't even have to be an artist, it's that easy.
Content
This is the step where you fill your blog with content. Try to only use content that you think your audience would be interested in. Use hot stories from the news, the latest hot products or come up with posts that will cause controversy within your niche. These are all guaranteed traffic getters.
Monetization
Once you start getting traffic to your blog, you will want to make sure you are monetizing that blog so that the money can come flowing in. You can use Google Adsense, affiliate links and banners and you can even set up an Amazon store. Once you get traffic, the money part will be easy and you'll finally have learned how to make money while you sleepusing blogs.
