Do you want to make money by blogging?

Maybe i should have published the topic of this blog couple of years back.Now that people are more interested in microblogging.I am writing this post for the people who have no idea of blogging or have never heard of Adsense.If you want to make money online, you have to work really hard.I have made assumptions that you have a PC/imac/Notebook/Macbook with internet connectivity.You are expecting your earnings from blogging to be a supplementary revenue stream and you are ready to sacrifice three to four hours a day for making this to work.

1. Making Money From Blogging is not very easy

You should be serious with your new endeavour.Set aside minimum 3 hours.Like all other things in life, blogging also is not for the lazy ones.

What is a Blog?

It is a webpage on the internet through which you communicate to your users.Ideally a blog is a platform used by users with no or little technical knowledge.They write articles called posts.These posts are displayed one after another.The crux is you write blogpost like you write a diary.You can communicate to any number of people through this blog.It is a powerful medium to communicate your propoganda to the world.

If you have a smart idea, which you want to share to the world.Ofcourse blogging is the platform on which you can do that.

2. You should write original (authentic) articles or blogposts

This is a must.You have to write killer articles that grabs the eyeballs and mind of the visitor.You should know that you are writing to a website visitor.A website visitor will always have less time to surf.So write to the post.Do not make him bored because he is a hopping creature.He would prefer to leave your site rather than read your boring article.

Plagiarism or content copying is the bad practice in blogging.Temptation can arise to make inexpensive content by copying.You got to know that it wont help you in your path to a popular blog with lots of visitors.

Why you should write original blog posts?

Google and other search engines are the entitites that brings web visitors to your website.They do not like plagiarism.Since search engine bots will be visiting the original content site also, they know that you copied.Ultimately they will send less visitors only.

3. Two tips are enough for now.............

Take actions...............


Look for name for your site and topics, issues you are going to write in the blog.If you are a telephone technician,you are a wanted man since you know some things about telephone and repairing them.You can write blogposts that contain useful information about repairing telephones.Similiarly if you are a paramedic, you can write about social issues in healthcare and community health.You can communicate to people about first aids and all....

Things to do....

Ok guys ......Once you decide on the topic........research for a domain name.Because a domain name is a must for your new blog.This is because if your domain name is a toplevel domain,your visitors can remember the domain.

You can always start with site.blogspot.com or site.wordpress.com but ultimately you should be shifting to site.com .If you got some way to pay online or through paypal, you can register your domain at Register.com.It costs about 10 dollars there.

Register.com Email Packages

For those in india,i do not prefer sify.com .Because i am using them and have user experience.Once i send them DD for registering a domain.It was back in 2007.They didn't do it.When i enquired, i was told that they have recieved the DD and they want some changes in the DD.Despite my repeated calls, they preferred to trash the DD and i lost my 350 rs then.I was not having a credit card then.So i was finding difficult to purchase online.My brother-in-law had a credit card.I requested him for the credit card so that i could buy online.He shared me the credit card number and i bought the domain.I sent him the cash by money order from a post office at trivandrum.Later this person (brother in law) was furious about sharing the credit card.I didn't knew that he was sharing the cc number unwillingly.He insulted me very much in this issue.The only purchase i made with his cc was Rs 350 worth sify domain.I repaid him the money on the same day itself.Still he was very furious and viewed me like a person trying to do something fraud.

So my advice is if you want to take a help from a person, you study him well.People are complex things.You wont learn much about them from the first impression.Never associate with crooked people.

Use Sify domains only you find it difficult to pay other domain registrars.I had some money in the paypal account when i started out.I didn't had a credit card that time.So what i did was i found a domain registrar who accepts paypal.It's name is dynadot hosting.They offer excellent service.Cost would be little higher than the others.You got to know that changing registrars is possible but have some headaches associated with it.Think well before choosing your domain.

This series will continue...............

ELECTION COMMISSION OF INDIA’S VOTERS ID CARD DUPLICATE APPLICATION PROCESS

I lost my voter id card issued by the election commission of india. I lost it along with the driving license in 2007. I took Duplicate Driving Licence from the same RTO in 2008.Now I have been postponing the efforts to take duplication voters id card due to various reasons. One election came in between and election people were giving duplicates but I didn’t went. Now local body election happens in Kerala. So I got an information that the election department at the Tehsil (Taluk) office is starting to issue duplicate voter id cards from 08.10.2010.So I drove to mavelikkara  yesterterday  in my Astar and it was raining heavily. I reached there and find a long queue of people.Since I have completed the form before hand, I just need to find my card id number and put the data and place in it.A person employed there took my application form and he checked the number of my family member in the kiosk in the same room. The kiosk terminal didn’t showed my number. So he forwarded my application

Generate your online e-aadhaar card easily

Aadhaar Demystified   Aadhaar ,meaning foundation in indian languages, has become a hall of shame  or an object of inconvenience for the common man (aam aadmi). Despite a prominent personality like Mr. Nandan Nilekani at it's helm, India's aadhaar project is an epic fail. UIDAI or unique Identification Authority of India is a ghost body created by the central government.It is yet to get complete legal and constitutional status to discriminate people by providing gas subsidy {LPG subsidy for domestic use} only to aadhaar holders. Why India needed an ID System? India was in the dark about it's own citizen.Infiltration from Bangladesh, Pakistan and Srilanka happens all the time.Politicians provide illegal immigrants (a large chunk are run away criminals and terrorists) with indian election id cards inexhange of votes / money. Some crooks were eating up subsidies designed to reach deserving common man [aam aadmi] by forging fake documents and multiple accounts.
