‘Don’t Be Evil’ is a famous corporate quote which is adapted by Google Inc. in it’s business. It states that while starting a new business/concept never try to make money from start rather have patience, wait, apply things, workout, perform & after certain period of time you would see best results & make huge money.
I think the same applies to the blogging world. Many bloggers are too evil & try to start making money from the first week of their blog being online & of course make few. But for first 5 months the advice is you should nurture your blog with good articles at least 100 good articles, good design & work hard promoting it & even spend money if required. And when this time ends and your blog becomes popular. After that things would happen search engines would like your content more as they would be matured then,advertisers would pay high, your blog would have good blog ranking too. So it needs nothing but continuous effort which you always do, patience & the best thing required is determination. You keep on writing & writing good things, grow up your resource base, promote to social bookmarking sites, do SEO, advertise over the starting periods. All the top ranked bloggers of today never made good $$ in their initial months rather filled their blog with everything a potential reader would need. Just after that period your blog would be bit popular, have good ranks & all sponsored review marketplaces like PayPerPost, ReviewMe would accept your blog & if you post daily, $1000 would be minimum amount you would earn from your blog by paid blogging & from other advertisement networks.To be honest during initial time 1st 5 months you can also do some paid reviews if you are in need of money but that’s a risk involved considering your blog’s reputation. I see many bloggers giving up at early stage of their blog for n0t earning much but that is not the time to earn but to plan the future course & carry over all the positives in you & your blog to few more months. That needs courage but this has happened to many bloggers who waited n waited but got results at last.
Following Are Few Things To Do In The Earliest Stage Of Your Blog
Planning - Plan what would you be posting in upcoming days,how frequently would you post & other things.
Keep Promoting- Keep promoting your blog in all aspects like popularity, authority & rankings.
What should you target is authority, increase of audience(both traffic & feed subscribers) and rankings.(pagerank, search engine rankings & position for keywords, alexa ranking.) technorati ranking is also vital to decide authority of your blog.
Some updates on certification exams which I’m seeking after. 350-018 is a useful exam when your career is concerned. 70-620 also comes under the same category. However, every exam is not so much in trend like 70-293. Maybe due to lack of quality in answers, even 642-901 is not sold too much. Due to bad reputation of poor question and answers, even 70-272 is not sold much. People are on the contrary very much inclined to buy 642-812. It’s all about an individual’s choice! 640-822 is also one of the favorite exams of many students.
