When people decide to publish blogs they invariably have two things in common with other bloggers, namely, they want to have people read the content of their blog, and they want to ensure that those people will return to their blog often. Having plenty of visits to your blog is the only sure way of creating an income from it. But if those visitors fail to click on the AdSense link on your blog no income will be generated, because that is how it works. Irrespective of what you write about, those two objectives apply.
WHAT DO I WRITE IN MY BLOG?
Now that is a dilemma everyone who decides to publish a blog will be confronted with. We've all been there so you can rest assured that this problem is not unique to you. Like the rest of us you will find that once you have successfully set up your blog and have your AdSense links in the best place to invite clicks from your visitors, you are unable to think of anything to write about. This can be disheartening, because under different circumstances you, like the rest of us, are quite capable of stringing a few sentences together! But not when it comes time to type that blog! You might even start doubting yourself and your ability to be interesting to anyone else, enough to ensure that they take time to read what you've written. However, there are ways around this very common and frustrating problem that you will find helpful when deciding what to write about.
Ad placement has got to be the easiest part of starting a blog but the most difficult is coming up with a topic that you feel you will be able to continue writing about every day. Your topic needs to be fresh and up to date, so that people will want to visit your blog again, since that is the objective - to create a blog that is popular and one that has the potential to earn you some money.
You have the choice about what your blog will be about and you can choose to write about any topic under the sun that takes your fancy. But that doesn't help much, now does it? There are simply far too many options available to you. It is really like taking a child into a large toy store and then telling them that they can choose any toy they want. How are they to make such a choice when there are so many toys to choose from? It is the same situation. You are faced with unlimited possibilities.
Your blog can either be a blog that does not earn you any money, or it can be one that does. So the first decision you need to make is to decide which is best suited to you. If you choose the one that does not earn you money then all you need to do is provide the link to your blog to the people in your life, such as friends and family. You will merely need to post updates every now and again but other than that there is not much more you need to do. If, on the other hand, you want to write a blog that will bring the cash in, you need to know and understand just how search engines and AdSense work. This might also assist you in deciding what your blog would be about.
If generating an income from your blog is the way you want to go then you need to do whatever you can to ensure that as many people as possible will visit your blog. One of the ways to accomplish this is to make certain that whatever you have decided to write about will direct visitors to your blog by way of the search engines. As you can see, knowing and understanding something of how search engine optimization will assist you in directing traffic to your blog is important. The same can be said about AdSense as well. Your AdSense ads need to be clicked on by your visitors and so placement of them is also of equal importance. Understanding how AdSense and Search Engine Optimization works will help you in deciding what your blog is to be about but we will go more in-depth about this in later chapters of this e-book
