Doman Names

A domain name says it all. If you are new to blogging and need to know how to get started blogging so you can start making money online, a domain name is the first step.  

Sure, there are free blogging platforms such as blogger or wordpress, but a domain name lets people know that you mean business, and it makes it easier for people to find your blog. A short, to the point, domain name is all you need.  

Need another reason to have a domain name 

Most free blogging platforms, such as blogger and wordpress, don't allow the blogger to customize it like it would if you had a domain name and hosting. I use Godaddy for this website; they are fairly cheap, and often they allow you to get a domain name either free or for very little when you order hosting. There are other good sites that sell domain names such as Hostgater.  

Should you buy domain names from wordpress or blogger 

I wouldn't think that this would be very wise. Both of these are expensive, and yes, they do have the option to purchase the domain name from them. I would shop around and be careful of where you purchase the domain name and hosting. I ran into a few problems years ago when I first started blogging. I bought a domain name and a hosting package from a site that I pulled up off of  a Google search. The package was cheap but it was so complex and I didn't get much help from customer support. I have called Godaddy and they helped me out quickly and the site is very seldom down, and when it does go down, it only happens for a few minutes before it is back up.  

Make money online with a domain 

Most sites, such as wordpress, won't let you add any form of monetization on the blog. If you get a domain name and hosting, you can pretty much do what you want to it as long as you follow the rules for whatever monetization you add.  

So, what did we learn? Having a domain name makes sense, and if you are new to blogging, you are going to want to get one so you can start making money online.

The Difference Between Writing a Blog Post and an Article

 I recently got asked if I would allow an individual to  write an article  for my blog. I assume that what they meant was, could they write a blog post. I also assume that this individual did not know the difference between a blog post and an article. Conversational Language of a Blog Post Conversational language on a blog post is more like you are talking to a close friend. It is like you are having a conversation with an individual that you have known for years. Blog post do not have to be formal at all. Blog post are supposed to invite the readers in and create conversation. Blog post also tend to have the writer’s opinion more than an article does. This does not mean that a blog post is not based on facts. Blog post are editorial pieces at best. Conversational Language of an Article Articles are meant to be informative, leaving false information completely out, and the opinion of the writer at a minimal. Articles are normally formal and more objective. Most articles d...

Aids has become one of the most widely known STD's in the world. Making yourself aware of Aids will help you to better understand ways that you can take prevention measures to refrain from transmitting it or passing it onto someone else.  HIV is the virus that causes Aids.

Earning with Bubblews

I have heard a lot of bad things about  Bubblews . I use to  love to write  for them and I still do every now and again. One review that I had seen was from a dear friend who had gotten kicked off of their site for unknown reasons, another review was from another friend who said that the pay system was really messed up but she still got paid, it just took longer than they state. Well, I have been writing for them for a while now. I don’t write there frequently though. You are allowed to post ten articles or post a day. I don’t take full advantage of this though; I am lucky if I post one a week. Anyways, this is my current pay scale that I have. I need to reach $50 before I can withdraw this into my PayPal account and right now I am at $46. I will keep you updated on my progress with them. Please let me know how your experience has been so far.
