I just recently started a blog on how people can make extra money online. I just wanted to know, how many others here also have a blog, and do you have any tips for me since I'm just getting started? =) Thanks!

I have a blog but I also have a website that I have built with some simple html which you probably have learned by having a blog. My website gets more traffic than my blog though so that is why I mentioned it. And it is very similar to what you are interested in doing. If you check out my profile you will see my website link there. And I will do the same. Good luck to you, I hope you are able to get some of the billions of dollars that people are making online in today's world!

OK! Nice to see that you have started a blog and asking for suggestions. Though the subject you have chosen is really too much competitive, yet there are many people actually searching for earning money online. So, you should not have difficulties in getting readers. However, to make your blog really popular, you need regularity - both in terms of promotion and content! If you can afford sometime periodically to update your blog with new offers, then there must not be any difficulties in getting readers. Besides, you need to study your readers - what they like/dislike and give them input accordingly. Hope this helps.

Just one more point to add. You do not need to spend a lot of time! Rather you need to manage/allot/use time effectively to make your blog popular and useful. Hope this will be helpful as well.

I do, I do!! The best tip of all if owning a blog, use blogger.com. One word EASY. Want to sell stuff with a blog? Use squidoo, another free blog site. Check out my profile if you want more info on squidoo. Be sure and put your blog address on mylot profile too!!!

I, too, have a blogg with ways to make some extra money. You have seen mine and we are supposed to be doing a link exchange but you haven't put mine on your site yet. I have put yours on my blogg. You can look at it from my profile page and you will see yours. I will look again at the end of the day today and see if you have added mine to your site yet. Please do it. I think most people here in mylot have a blogg or website, since it is easy and free to get one. I just takes a little practice to learn how to do it, but I had help from my nephew who is a bit of a computer geek. So I had it easier than most people, to learn how. I am still learning as time goes on and I don't think the learning is ever over.

My tip is that if you enjoy blogging go ahead. But if you're planning to make money from telling other people how to make money online, get in line because you have a lot of conpetition. And the people that are already making money aren't asking for tips. Blogging just to make money is heading for a crash because it's so overcrowded. Thousands of people are trying to do the same thing and most of them don't even know enough to offer advice to anybody.
