The Extra Income Guide Blog

Welcome back!

Hello and good day everyone. I just wanted to give everyone a brief rundown of Blogging for adsense. Now I don’t use adsense on this blog, but I do use it on other blogs. It is a great way to earn extra income.
Blogging is the act of maintaining a weblog by regularly making blog content and publishing it on the Web. Blogging involves the regular writing of posts or content, posting, answering and managing blog comments, and engaging in search engine optimization tactics for your blog. Some create blogs as a hobby, some in support of websites, while some mainly do it for money through the use of Google Adsense. Many people opt to do blogging and blogging for Adsense in order to generate income from their blogs. We will go into detail on how you can generate money through Google Adsense with your blog. If you are a newbie to blogging, here is a step by step guide on how to create your blog and how to even make money from it.
Starting the Blog:
Starting the blog may be very simple. It can be done in a few steps.
1. Create a blog of your own using paid or free blog hosts. If you are totally new to blogging and blogging for Adsense, then you might consider free blog hosts such as Blogger.com which also accepts Adsense ads.
2. To sign up for a free blog host (let us say you choose Blogger), then all you have to do is visit their website www.blogger.com and create a blogger account. You simply need to fill out the necessary information like username, password, and choose your blog theme. If you want to use a paid host and domain, you can get your own by paying minimal fees to register a domain and to have a webhost service.
3. Choose your blog niche. Before you probably decided to make a blog, you might have thought of what your blog will be. A blog niche is the field that you will be blogging about. Topics can range from technology, dogs, personal life, show business, or any thing practically under the sun. Your topic or niche would also reflect in your whole blogging and blogging for Adsense as a whole.
4. Make your very first post. As soon as you create your blog account, you can now create your very first post. You make type in your first post with only words or you can choose to attach photos, videos, and others.

Hello and Good Day everyone. I wanted to write a small article on how you can make money online by selling.
There are several ways to make money selling online. Whether it’s a product or a service, here are some tips and suggestions.

EBay is the auction site most people use to sell items they have on hand, regardless whether they are new or used.

In order to sell online with eBay, you have to establish an account. You can go to eBay and read their FAQ page. It’s quite easy to do. You will need to give them a credit card number, name and address, telephone number, username and password.

In addition, when you sell items on eBay, you can elect to have payment made to you via PayPal, which is the safest and fastest form of payment on eBay. You will also have to set up an account with PayPal. They require a credit card (for purchases you make on eBay) and a savings or checking account so that funds can be withdrawn from your PayPal account directly into your savings or checking account.

Note: When selling items on eBay, research similar items on their site to determine how to set your price. Also keep in mind that eBay charges a fee for the listing, a fee for photos, and PayPal takes a percentage of payment received. Read all of the information about selling on both sites so that you can price your item accordingly.

Tip: PayPal, which is also owned by eBay, has a Protection Key that you can purchase for $5.00. This key has a tiny window in which six numbers appear randomly every time you press the button on the key. It is well worth this small investment.

The key works in this manner: When you sign on to eBay or PayPal, you enter your username and password; then you are taken to a special page where you enter the six-digit number from the key. This is a security measure that protects your identity and offers a more secure transaction with both eBay and PayPal.

Amazon.com is another company that is quite popular with consumers who want to sell items. You have the ability to list your items and set a price. When a seller chooses your item, you will receive payment immediately and the requirements for confirming payment and sending out said items will be sent to you via Amazon. It is a great method, a fast and easy process, and payments are sent directly to your checking account. There is no third party involvement or fees.

Tip: If you’ve ever purchased used CDs or DVDs from Amazon, you will already be familiar with the process. The customer pays via credit card and you receive full credit PLUS Amazon gives you the postage fees, so it doesn’t cost you a penny to mail the item.

If you provide a service, such as writing articles for websites, you can set your price accordingly by putting up a website and advertising your services. Of course, word of mouth is important, as is search engine optimization. But that’s another article for another day.

Finally, if you are starting your own home business selling gift baskets or other items, there are plenty of websites that offer information, tools, resources, tips, and other comprehensive information to help you get started.

If you decide you want to make money selling online, it can be done with fortitude, research, commitment, and as much knowledge as you can obtain from trusted online sources.

Happy Earning,

Hello and Good day everyone.  Branding is one of the most crucial parts of starting a business online or off line.  I would love to say I have a great brand, but there are so many MMO’s out there that I feel I dont stick out as much as I would like too.  However I have a few other blogs that have been customized to have a brand of their own.  I feel branding is one of the most important things one can do to help make that extra income.

A brand is what the customer can refer to you as in a slogan, a picture, video, etc.  I like visual brands.  One of the best known visual brands is the nike swoosh.  Who can say they have never seen or recognized that swoosh.

Anyways, branding is very important and also very time consuming.  You have to think outside of the box, and have to be able to be very creative.

Well…….

Happy Earning

Hello and Goodday everyone.  Goals are very important to everyone, especially those that are trying to run a successful business, online or off, and today I just wanted to go over some of my goals.  Last month the EIGB ran a very successful contest in which are subscriber base grew to over 65.  That was a very healthy increase for my blog and I want to thank everyone.  I am a person that enjoys giving to the blogosphere either in terms of help or also in terms of gifts, so I will be contacting some of my advertisers so I can put together another contest very soon.  Also sales in my ebay store were up and I made an astonoshing $3200 in profit.  Not too shabby for a little extra income to help with the bills.  I started a few new PPC campaigns and will recieve $389 in profit from one campaign.  I am starting to get the hang of bidding on keywords, placement, and the building of landing pages.  I hope to be earning more and more from these campaigns and will surly let you all know how I went about doing it to earn that extra income.

My goal for October is to run a contest, increase my RSS readers to over 100 and to earn over $1000 in affiliate commissions.  My eBay store will always do me well so I am not that concerned with that, but as I have stated before I want to get away from eBay and focus mainly on my blogs and affiliate commissions.

Well please share your goals with all of us for Oct.  and If you want to donate anything for the next contest please let me know.

Happy Earning
