From the page after no. 7 you will see POSTING, SETTING, LAYOUT, MONITIZE.
POSTING.
Posting is where you write whatever you want to display in your page. Remember after writing any post, first of all save it before publishing it to the public.
SETTING.
Here is where you edit the settings of your blog like the title and so on.
LAYOUT.
This is where you arrange the items you added to your blog. Where you want anyone to be.
MONITIZE.
This is where you make you blog to generate income for you, by allowing Google to post some adverts your blog. Once you click on it, another page opens where you choose where and how the adverts will be displayed. Choose any of them and click on next.
Since you are new to adsense, select create a new adsense account and click on next.
A form will open fill the form with your correct information and tick on all the policies, then click on submit information. Then click on create account.
They will show you their terms and conditions tick it and click on accept.
Then you have succeeded in monetizing you blog, then you have to wait for 48 hours for the adverts to start showing.
NOW this is just the beginning. Because you don’t just open your business and people start coming, likewise there are several things you need to do to drive traffic to your site. Those thing are what I am about to reveal to you now.
1- One of the key ways to generating traffic to your site is to make sure you have good quality content on your site. See the key is you want your visitors to have a good reason to bookmark your site and return often. This can be accomplished by posting relevant information that gives the readers value and provides a solution to their problems. By making sure you post fresh good quality content on your site you also ensure the probability of your site getting ranked by major search engines more quickly providing organic traffic to your site immediately. This simple concept is often misunderstood by people just starting out online.
2- Another key point to remember is ensuring that you use all relevant keywords in the content body that you post on your site. This also will grab the attention of the search engines very quickly and ensure that your site gets indexed. When traffic starts to trickle onto your site the steps you took in #1 will keep them on your site and bring them back in the future, which gives you a higher conversion rate for possible future sales. Remember the longer you keep a visitor on your site through high quality informative content the higher probability you have of securing a dedicated customer which will do wonders to your profits margin.
3- Okay, you now must realize that your website is new. So now an important step you want to take is to let the online world know you are out there and where to find you. This can be accomplished by submitting your website to the search engine directories. By submitting your website to these search engine directories makes it possible for people to actually find your site when they are searching these directories using relevant keywords and key word phrases. See I told you this isn't rocket science. To many people just starting out online make it more complicated than it has to be.
4- Okay so now you have done the basics, so what to do next? Now you want to start creating links to your site. This is simply linking to other websites that have a high PR rank and are in the same niche as you, meaning there website is relevant to what you are selling, example, being your competition. This is an effective way of directing their traffic to you simply by linking to their site. If you Google link directories you will find plenty of food for thought and by using this concept you can also increase the ranking of your own website.
5-Promote Your Site in Online Forums and Discussion Lists -- "old school" social media. The Internet offers thousands of very targeted e-mail based discussion lists, online forums, and groups made up of people with very specialized interests. Use Google Groups (groups.google.com) to find appropriate groups. Search online for blogs or other forums.
Don't bother with groups consisting of pure spam. Instead, find groups where a serious dialog is taking place. Don't use aggressive marketing and overtly plug your product or service. Rather, add to the discussion in a helpful way and let the "signature" at the end of your e-mail message do your marketing for you. People will gradually get to know and trust you, visit your site, and do business with you.
6-Ask Visitors to Bookmark Your Site. It seems simple, but ask visitors to bookmark your site or save it in their Favorites list. I use a widget called AddThis (www.addthis.com). When you put the AddThis JavaScript on your webpage, it automatically determines the title and URL of that page. When visitors click the button on your page, they are automatically taken to a page that allows them to choose which bookmarking service they prefer, and then pre-populates the appropriate form with the title and URL of your webpage. I use AddThis throughout my website, as well as in my newsletters. If you have good content that people want to bookmark, this can generate hundreds of links to your site and significantly raise your rankings.
While you're at it, would you be so kind as to bookmark this page using the button below? Thank you!
7-Include Your URL on Stationery, Cards, and Literature. Make sure that all business cards, stationery, brochures, and literature contain your company's URL. And see that your printer gets the URL syntax correct. In print, I recommend leaving off the http:// part and including only the www.domain.com portion.
8-Develop a Free Service. It's boring to invite people, "Come to our site and learn about our business." It's quite another to say "Use the free kitchen remodeling calculator available exclusively on our site." Make no mistake, it's expensive in time and energy to develop free resources, such as our Research Room (www.wilsonweb.com/research/), but it is very rewarding in increased traffic to your site -- and a motivation to link to the site! Make sure that your free service is closely related to what you are selling so the visitors you attract will be good prospects for your business. Give visitors multiple opportunities and links to cross over to the sales portion of your site.
9-Write Articles for Others to Use in Websites and Newsletters. You can dramatically increase your visibility when you write articles in your area of expertise and distribute them to editors as free content for their e-mail newsletters or their websites. Just ask that a link to your website and a one-line description of what you offer be included with the article. This is an effective "viral" approach that can produce hundreds of links to your site over time. You'll find lots of information on how to do this from the most popular article marketing site, EzineArticles.com. When you create a free membership account, they begin sending you instructions and ideas each week.
Well, I hope that you have gained some value from this short article and will follow these 4 easy steps to start the ball rolling in your favor, by increasing the traffic volume to your site you will inevitably increase your online profits.
COMMITED TO YOUR SUCCESS
