A couple days ago I wrote about one of my favorite sites “makemoneyforbeginners dot blogspot dot com”. If you are really serious about making money online and don’t know where to start then Grizzly from the great white north is the place to start. He gives a vary honest review of how to build a website and have it ranking in the natural search engines.
As long as you have the desire to write about something you enjoy and can identify the keywords you need to write about then the make money for beginners website gives you the ideas to get it done without have to pay hosting or design fees. I even kind of feel a little embarrassed about writing this post on my wordpress blog which I pay for hosting each month and even paid for a theme. But you can really do what I am doing and not have to pay those fees.
The reason I wrote the post was to show myself I could do exactly what Griz had done to rank for the term Problogger dot com, only I was trying to rank for makemoneyforbeginners.blogspot.com. For me it was more of an exercise rather then a way to make money.
Within seconds of posting the article in my wordpress blog I went to google.com and searched for the keyword within my site i.e. makemoneyforbeginners blogspot com site:alanjenks.com and found google had indexed the post and then searched in google for makemoneyforbeginners blogspot com and found my site on the 2nd page, which I thought was pretty cool. My site is in no way an authority site yet but having the power to do that felt good and kept the motivation up to write this post to attempt to create two listings.
The goal now with this post is to link to my original post with the keyword makemoneyforbeginners.blogspot.com and then go back and edit my other post to link to this post. I will then also update this post with the rankings and where everything sits minutes after posting to give you and idea that it can be done with a little consistency.
Where I go from here will be interesting. After reading Griz’s post seeing the results and duplicating it on my site, I think a great approach from here would be to review affiliate products. Write long articles as review over two days linking back to each article then putting a compelling link to click to the affiliate product and then test the results. Obviously, you will be writing the articles for the product name keyword and in the title you would have the product name that it is a review and potentially the author of the product this way you would be possibly be ranking for a low competition keyword that is searched for.
So lets say you are interested in knitting and you read everything at makemoneyforbeginners blogspot com and get your blogspot blog so maybe knitting dot blogspot dot com then maybe you find an affiliate program written by Jane Doe called Super Knitting Secrets, so day one your write a review of around 1000 words with the title “Super Knitting Secrets Review by Jane Doe: Don’t buy this knitting product until you read this first” or something to that effect, then you write your honest review. The next day you write an update review for Super knitting secrets of the same length and then link back to each article.
Always test the results. Are you seeing commissions? are there clicks to the page? Do you see the results in google.
I am already anxious to see the results of this test, kind of fun thinking of ideas and then testing them out. Much of that I have to thank Grizzly for from makemoneyforbeginners blogspot com for keeping my mind thinking and learning and actually seeing the results of his testing. This stuff works and it works well, you just can’t expect to click once and hope for all this cash to roll in.
Even if you start out with google adsense, it is a start. Most of what I learned on Grizzes blog was related to adsense as it use to be a big part of his income from that blog.
So what should you do from here. Go over to makemoneyforbeginners.blogspot.com sign up to his rss feed and start reading all the posts there is some awesome information there that you don’t have to pay $37 a month for, although he should be charging as most of the information is 10x better then most of the products I spent $1000′s on.
Update After Posting This Article
This time the post took a little longer to index, around 15 minutes but you will see from the image that google did index the post…
Google indexing for makemoneyforbeginners post
Then I wanted to see if the post was indexed for the keyword which is the next image…
Post is ranking on 2nd page for MakeMoneyForBeginners.blogspot.com
So most likely the post may fall off the SERP’s as I as of yet have not done any backlinking to the pages. I just simply wrote the articles on two separate days posted them to my wordpress blog and captured an image of my results.
If I now spend some time getting quality backlinks to the articles I am sure I will see better results in google.
Maybe I could have placed the keywords in better positions or done something different, but all I did was write and link the the posts and observed the results. I didn’t take me long to do and I actually enjoyed it.
This will probably not make me any money, but if you take this concept just like Grizzly outlines on his blog with some focused keywords with not a lot of competition that is focused on a affiliate product and do this multiple times you will really start to develop an authority site that makes money on a daily basis.
I think the biggest thing for the lack of double indexing is the fact that I haven’t got any backlinks coming in yet, but would love to hear your thoughts.
