How to start a blog - by George Dirlam

Turn your blog into an extra income!

Hello, my name is George Dirlam and I will personally teach you how to start a blog.

I use my blogs to promote my affiliate marketing business on the Internet (SEO) and to create backlinks to my websites. A blog should provide the reader with information or how to.

I will personally teach you how to create a blog, use proper keywords and how to create backlinks to your blogs to get on page one of the search engines.

If you have some type of affiliate business or home based business, a blog is a great way to get customers and affiliate members. I am not a guru or some type of bogging expert, but if you do a Google search for the keyword - TriVita, you will see I am on page 1.

I did this will the help of my blogs and other sites on the major search engines like Google, Yahoo and Bing.

With a blog and website, people will be calling you and not the other way around. If you just want to start a blog for fun, no problem, use these instructions and you will also learn how to blog.

Start with the keyword tool
Don't guess what people are searching for on the Internet, use the google keyword tool.
This tool will show you how many searches a month a word or phrase gets on Google. Underneath the "Find Keywords", you will see a box with the words - "Word or phrase (one per line)".

Type in a word and hit search, then on the left side of the site you will see some small boxes, check the box that says "Exact" and leave the other boxes blank.

Type in the word - How to start a blog
I then click the words "Local monthly searches", so it shows me the highest searches at the top. The higher the searches the better the keyword, but take into consideration the competetion...see the green rectangular box on the left with the different levels of green, some boxes have more green than other boxes, depending on the competetion.

Remember that these searches are using the Google keyword tool and the number of searches are probably less for Bing and Yahoo. I personally like both of the "Bing" and "Yahoo" search engines also and always try to get on page one of those search engines too.


Teach online
It will be faster for me to teach you how to blog in my teach online classroom.

Recommended tools
Blogger - No charge, just Google blogger then set up a blogger. I have "how to" set up a blogger video on my webpage here - How to blog.

Watch the Google video at the bottom addcashflow.com/learnhowtoblog.html website of the then set up your google blog.

Edit plus - first 30 days no charge, then I believe it has a one time fee of $30.00, at least that's how much I paid for it.

I am writing this blog in edit plus now, it's basically a html editor.

I am going to teach you how to write your blogs in html, html is the language of the Internet. If you go to Japan, a few words in Japanese would be helpful.

See this hyperlink example going to another one of my blogs - TriVita Nopalea, making hyperlinks and other html is simple in edit plus.

Domain or url - Godaddy = About $7.69 a year with a godaddy coupon code. Do a Google search for Godaddy coupon codes, then use the code that lowers the price in the checkout "source code" when buying a domain through godaddy.
