How Many Blogs Do You Have? by Diane Sweeney

If you are just starting out in Internet marketing, you may not even have a website yet, let alone multiple websites. You might be surprised to know that many of the successful people that are currently making a lot of money on the Internet do not stop with just one or two websites. As a matter of fact, some of them have hundreds of different websites that they juggle and each of them makes them a few dollars or perhaps even more every day. Although it will take some time to set this up, the more blogs that you have which are active, the more money you are going to make.

The real secret comes in making sure that the system is automated at lease to a certain extent. The first step in doing this is to buy a domain name and then to get some hosting for it. This is one of the least expensive businesses that you're ever going to run as the entire set is probably going to run you about $20 per year at best. As a matter of fact, the more domain names you have that are set up on the same account, the less it is going to cost you in the long run. Most hosting services have a control panel that allows you to set up a WordPress blog automatically. This can have you up and running with just a few minutes of work and about three clicks of the mouse button.

After you have the WordPress blog set up, you need to do a little bit of modification in the back end. Don't worry, it's not all that difficult and there are some tutorials out there that will walk you through every step of the process. It's imperative that you have this set up properly from the start because going back and changing it later is going to be a real pain. Not only that, the blog may never function as well as if you had set it up properly in the first place.

There are also some free add-ons and themes that you should add to your WordPress blog to make sure that attention is being pulled to your ads subtly. After all, it's nice to get traffic to your website and you can really do so immediately if things are set up properly but, having immediate traffic to put money in your pocket is really your goal.
