looking for money through blogs

I know there are a few blogs that pay per post if that's what your looking for. I don't know the names but there have been a few posts on here just search topics to find them.

If your looking to make money just on your blog using blog spot, doing what your friend does is the ultimate way to go. Using google ads in your blogs etc and adverts will get you money IF you have enough traffic coming to your page. Marketing is everything get out there and figure out what type of blog you want to write. Make it something people would enjoy reading and would find informative. Starting a blog is easy... it's populating it that's hard.

I get paid to blog at today.com

You have two basic choices: either set up on your own domain (or a freebie blogging place) and set up an advertising system (AdSense, Adgitize, etc.) to bring in revenue; or set up on a paid site.

Setting up on your own obviously brings in more money (since you're not sharing it!), but it's tougher: you have to manage domain registration, server space and the blogging software.

I know of four paid sites: Orble.com, worldblogosphere and getpaidfrom.us (the last one is US only) all give a percentage of the AdSense revenue to the blogger. You have to have an AdSense account for it to work. (They give 50%, 70% and??% - I'm non-US, so didn't check the last one!)

Today.com is the fourth of which I know. They pay for traffic ($2 per 1,000 unique visitors) and if you're lucky $1 for one post, per day. That's the VIP blogging plan. I had one on there, but after a month or two they took away the $1/post as mine was a personal journal style blog and therefore wouldn't bring them much revenue.

If you have an AdSense account, one of the first three would work fine. I'm on Orble and Worldblogosphere (which is run by a guy who used to blog on Orble). The people are great on both. My partner still blogs on Today, but I kind of left: I had fewer comments and it felt less friendly. That's just personal opinion.

If you need more info, just shout. I'll be glad to help out if I can.

By the way, the type of computer doesn't matter, since everything works through a web front-end.
