Sanchez01: You are very wrong on this sir! As per data axpense, am sure you didn't read it into details. Do you know how many online blog posts i surf to read in a day as a blogger? Apart from this, as a beginner blogger do you know the amount of data the so called person will waste designing a blog? Between Forget all these easy backlinks, backlink is very difficult and not just very, very very difficult I must say. Targeting 15 sites then am very sure those 15 sites must have DA of 95 minimum then do you know how tedious it can be to get your links on websites with DA of 95? not talking of subdomains here like blog.microsoft.com etc please, am talking of microsoft.com Am currently on a backlink hunt for my blog and i know how i suffered to get those .edu and .gov backlinks Maybe you have other techniques you use to get backlinks, pls tell your guy |

Bloggingscope:That .com is very popular does not mean it is the best. Domains are classified into different tiers. .com, .org, .net, .gov, .biz and .edu all fall under Top Level Domains (TLD). The TLD is further broken down as ccTLD, sTLD, and gTLD. Of these domains, .com is the most popular but not the best. If .com is the best as claimed, why do you think Google gives credence to sites with .edu and .gov backlinks? Why not the 'best' which .com? As per data, except you are running a trial and error site whereby you download heavy sized-themes and plug-ins today, uninstall them tomorrow, download new ones thereafter, trust me, you don't need to break your bank just to buy data to blog. What should be taken into consideration is the frequency of new contents. If it's a site whereby you only post twice a week, then you need not bother about heavy data since you are only posting new contents eight times a month. Believe me when I say getting backlinks are quite easy than write ups make them appear. I might reveal the trick someday but it isn't now. It is about looking in the right places. .edu and .gov backlinks are tough to get. I have none on my sites two of my sites rank incredibly well. Safe to say you experience this difficulty. There is no short cut to breaking even, SERP-wise. As a blogger, working hard is key but it isn't the ultimate. Working smart is. |

fastseo:Lol. Simple. You can't download your .htaccess file to your phone, edit and re-upload for starters. What happens when there is an issue within your root folder and your attention is urgently required as as your site will likely suffer for it? Blogging goes beyond just working on your CMS via your wp-admin backend. |

mysticgal: H1, H2, H3, H4, H5 and H6 are the six levels of headings in an HTML script. Now let me explain in a lay man's language; If you want to type something and post it on a website, you can choose any of those six level of headings to start your paragraph. The 6 level of headers are different from each other in its sizes. H1 is the biggest size of them, while H6 is the least. I hope that was helpful. 1 Like |

I’ve been blogging since 2009 and I can emphatically say that you can make A LOT of money blogging - much more than doctors, lawyers, techies, and bankers. It’s largely because of blogging that allowed me to quit my investment banking job at the age of 24. Here are 5 tips on how to monetize your blog that I have personally used:- [img]https://3.bp..com/-AC1MW0YiP2U/WDatQLyG5qI/AAAAAAAAvfc/WiYTdzV8sCwSq2L6A0lEkbodLip0_NiCgCLcB/s640/image11.jpeg[/img] 1. Sell Ads Spaces This is a serious business for those that have massive traffic and/or targeted audience. For instance; a popular tech blog can earn money running targeted ads for a mobile phone company while ads can also be displayed for majorly popularity purpose. If your blog controls high traffic then this is something you shouldn’t take for granted. Ad banners come in different sizes and types which simply mean, every ad banner carries its own cost. These banners can be displayed for a month(s) or a specified period agreed upon. The minimum basic advert charges for a newbie blog with reasonable traffic can with 5k-6k for a month or 10k-12k for two months. The charges can be further modified when the popularity of your blog grows. 2. Online Affiliate Marketing This is a form of online business that allows you to earn money referring buyers to buy products sold by any e-commerce company you’re in affiliation with. How online affiliate marketing works is; when you’re in partnership with any company (sell products/services online e.g konga, jumia, dealdey, hostgator etc), commission gets to you when a customer you refer via affiliate link ends up purchasing a product from the company in question. For instance; a product worth 100k has an affiliate commission of 10%. It simply means you will get 10k for every person you refer to this product. Now imagine you referred 10 persons; that is simply 100k in your pocket. 3. Product Reviews and Sponsored Posts You can as well help people write product reviews directly on your blog; this is another sweet way of making money blogging in Nigeria. It’s a form of advert where people with new products will pay you to help them promote their products on your blog, in this kind of post will expose whatever product you’re reviewing to your blog audience and in return will make that product popular. Also, a sponsored post can be submitted to you for publishing by someone who wants to take advantage of the great traffic your site generates, this post isn’t usually written by you; they could be press releases or written entirely by someone else. Leverage on either/both methods of monetization and see the money rolling in. 4. Create YouTube Videos This is also a creative way to monetize your blog, you can make massive wealth by just creating videos and uploading them on YouTube. This is it, after doing the needful on YouTube, you can always notify your blog audience to watch your videos and follow your YouTube channel, hence pulling massive traffic from your blog to get to watch your videos directly on your blog. Dash straight to YouTube, create a new account or login with your existing Gmail account, after uploading a couple of videos you can then submit for video monetization, after your video has been approved for monetization, Google ads would start popping up and then you can start earning money when people watch your videos on YouTube. 5. Google Adsense Getting AdSense ads to display on your blog is another way to monetize but can be kind of stressful due to the high level of adherences to Google AdSense policies. Google won’t grant your blog AdSense if you haven’t properly followed the AdSense and webmaster’s policies before applying to the AdSense program. High traffic on your blog complements AdSense because AdSense works with EPC (Earnings Per Click) and CPC (Cost Per Click). Literally, Traffic + AdSense = $$$. The commission you should get depends on how much the advertisers are paying Google for a specific ad, the price should be as low as 2 cents but in very rare cases goes beyond 1$. So, these are the 5 tips; doing this on your own and trying figuring this out took me years, it could be painful and might even cost you money. I've got an easier way. I want to make it easy for you, as I don't want you to go through all those pain. Click here now to know more >>>http://kilenraprime.com/2018/11/15/monetizing-your-blog/ 1 Like |

Sanchez01: You are right... Building quality backlinks isn't as hard as it seems and you don't have to place links on 1000+ sites to get results. Strategic link building is what I'm doing right now for my site. Small in number they may seem, but weigh heavily on Google. |
