Techniques to make and manage money are some of the most popular topics for bloggersBlogging for money is really not that easy but yet we see tons of ebooks everyday being sold preaching how blogging for money will make you rich. Blogging for money should be a business decision you make taking into considerationFolks I decided to write this post ahead of time because it seems that people just do not know something and this seems to be the recurring theme when in my Mentor Program I communicate with the bloggers. In theI know by now most of you are saying mmmm WHAT THE FUCK!!!!!!!!!!!. Folks let me just first answer quickly as I have received hundreds of emails asking the same thing. Folks I am fine there is absolutely nothing wrong.
ILet's start that I really do not want to hear about the ethical bullshit it is to use PLR. I actually read a moron who wrote on his blog how he would never use PLR because it brought the valueMany people dream of blogging for money, and this goal is not far beyond the reach of someone with average intelligence, a willingness to work hard, and a basic grasp of blogging technology. However, very few people manage to reapYesterday Court wrote one of the best articles I have ever read on niche blogging. It is so detailed it is scary. Court and me had being talking for days how to reach you folks to understand why niche bloggingBlogging Basics is mostly about the blogging vocabulary. To understand bloggers, you need to know the terms blog, platform, domain, and web host. Once you have mastered these key elements of blogging, you can enter any conversation about blogging withI felt that being Christmas I need to give you something special. I know I have been kind of lay back lately and have really not giving you one single tip on making money and be a productive blogger. SoI received an email pointing me to a post on a noob website where the title is Adsense Isn’t Enough To Make Money Online and he asked me about his new niche blog should he use adsense. Firs of noobs
Don’t believe a word this joker says, I made 30,000 dollars in 3 days with a make money online blog. LOL!!!
LMAO you are such a dick!
Yeah don’t listen to him man, one RSS reader that you have is worth $5, if you have 10,000 that’s a cool $50,000 your blog is worth!
Yippee! I was able to view this video.
Vic, I’m not sure I followed you on subject of email vs. rss feed. I subscribe to BU via RSS - was your suggestion to also subscribe to BU by email in addition to the RSS feed?
Thanks, Patti
Patti this is indeed great news I hope you are able to see all of them and not just this one. As for the email RSS the reason I say it is because the email RSS gets sent directly to your email vs the straight feed gets pulled by the reader sometimes reader services do not pull the feed so the email is way more reliable. But in reality it is not needed
If a blog doesn’t offer a feedburner email subscribe option the chances I will ever make it back to that site drops to about 10%.
I rely on the feeds to keep up things. I use google alerts massively too. It is SO much easier to stay on track if emails come in daily with the exact data you find important.
If you don’t have a google alert set up for your name, you really need to — especially if you are active on the net.
The other thing to do is make sure you automatically subscribe to any forum thread you make a post to and at least get daily updates of new posts in the thread. It is very easy to lose track of multiple postings and if someone follows up your post with a question and you never respond it can hurt your credibility.

Amazing we kind of work it the same way especially when it comes into forums it is crazy how many times I have subscribed to a thread where a discussion was happening on some topic that I had issues with and months later a person would actually post the fix and I get notified via email.
Vic,
Sorry for the double post and this question if you have answered it before (I am trying to get through all the previous posts as fast as I can.)…
What video camera set up do you use to record your video blog posts?
Rhonda
A Mitsuba DV9002 bad bad choice as I use Adobe Visual communicator and in reality the encoding works best with firewire so currently I am still making my research to upgrade the camera this week I do not want to make the same mistake again this is why the sound and video sometimes does not sycn well.
Vic, I finally broke down an bought BANS! Man, if you say its a no brainer then it’s just got to be.
I can’t wait to see the Keyword Elite and SEO Elite vids. It’s very instructive to watch you actually go throught the process and listen to you think out loud.
Well I guess I’m off to buy about 100 dot info domainss…hope I dont mess this one up!
I keep thinking about what you said about making a dollar a day…from 200 sites. That’s got to be totally possible. Just takes time and work I guess.
The way I look at things is for us to keep as simple as possible and as you said to make more then doable goals. Once you apply the basics over and over again as boring as it is the payoff comes
Another thing about being a “power blogger” is that you get paid for promoting stuff like BlogRush and EntreCard. If you’re like John Cow, you can even work it out to get paid twice.
Either way you get paid LMAO
Hej Vic,
slightly offtopic but can you tell me who created your Avatar, that comic figure in the top ? Looks great.

iStock I get the custom made graphics there
Hi Vic,
Hope you are feeling better, it looks like it.
A couple of questions. I have told you my money situation, so no need to go there again.
However, its my birthday on the 17th April, and the wife and kids have clubed together, I think they have got $90-$100.
My problem is what should I buy? If I buy BANS, I can’t buy the domains or Hosting. If I buy the domains I can’t buy BANS. So on, and so on.
I’m thinking, buy BANS, then later a domain,then get the money together for the Hosting. What do you think?
A couple of other things. How quickly does a new BANS site go to the box?
When you talk about keyword stuffing does it have to still be readable? If so, how many key words per 100 words?
I have been accepted as an ebay affiliate and I have seen that they have widgets for adding ebay pages to sites, is this the same as BANS?
I have asked Grizz this, and a couple of people are looking into it, do you know if you can add BANS to a blogspot blog?
Sorry for so many questions, but as I said to Grizz there are so many questions in my head. All i’m trying to do is get all my ducks in line, for when i’m ready to rock and roll.
Thanks for your help, all the best - John
John this is such a tough question but I will make a video about all the options.

Vic,
That was a great video - broke down the make money online biz to a T. Every beginner should watch this. Nicely done.
BTW - WTF - 1100 RSS readers Saturday - 1400 Readers Monday - 1700 readers Tuesday… don’t forget us little people when you are out dining with Chow and company.
Dude JC was the one that mentioned the feed to me this morning on Skype that is so crazy stupid LMAO the only thing I can think is that I asked for folks to subscribe and suddenly a huge jump. I said on the video that I have never figured out what you need to do to get people to subscribe apparently mmm it turns out you have to ask them LMAO ain’t that a bitch.
Oh… Asia’h Epperson in the Blogroll…. hmmmmm
LMAO I told Elliot Grizz will laugh his ass off when he sees the link ohh well probably already offset with a few PR7 LMAO BTW I did a b acklink check on that site dude one of these days you really need to explain to me how the fuck did you get some of those links LMAO
What’s wrong Grizz?
Vic thinks I’m a sexy doll! He was just helping out a poor little ol’ lady that needed some help.
Isn’t that what getting links is about?
lmao
OMG I almost just fell of my fucking chair laughing just way funny LMAO
Hahaha… Nothing wrong here - get em’ where you can. I thought it was quite clever and no I didn’t add any PR7’s. I haven’t touched the site since the last post.
Oh Vic - you’ll have to get an invite to our not so secret forum if you want to know about them thar links… bring your 1772 friends along too.
If anyone wants in just send me an email with “BS and LV” in the subject line. We will be discussing things that I don’t want on my blog.
What’s the point of having friends if you can’t spam their comments!
I think you’re pretty sexy too Grizz…
Gotta love those outdoorsy types!
lmao
Hmmmm Darren now has a book out in the bookstores about making money with blogging…
Make Money Blogging…
Make Money Blogging I guess this is the illusive title we see on about 100 post a day the sad part is that most post you see with the tile Make Money Blogging the blogger is actually not making any money but yet he is blogging on how to Make Money Blog…
You got chihuahua’s? I swear I heard my dogs barking in the background, lol…
You actually nailed it!! My wife just got it for our daughter and OMG this dog will not shut up and you think that was loud you should hear that at 4am if not my kid this dog would be like long gone
Hey Vic, new reader here just stopping by to leave you a comment after watching your video. I will agree with one point you made and that is video blogging is a blast. I got into it a few weeks ago and love it too.
Now to my disagreement.
I will side with you that company’s like PPP and TLA have hurt more blogs then they have done good for but blaming them for the drop in a blogs worth or what ever you said or targeting there supporters for promoting there programs shows me who the uneducated one really is. You praise Google (or at least it seems) but they are the dumb fucks who created the market in the first place for selling links. Like really, I know they are a huge ass company but how dumb could you be by forming a method of ranking a site based on incoming links, then tell everyone the higher the rank the better the site and more traffic your going to get from our search engine and still think after you said all that, that no one will put 2 and 2 together that they just opened up a billion dollar market for some one to capitalize on.Or is that really what your getting at, the fact you didn’t think of it first?
You can not blame Darren for promoting these company’s and you can not blame PPP or TLA for starting a business, the only thing you can blame them for is the fact they do not disclose that using there services will hurt your rank and hurt your online income in the long run which will take you a long time to get back and that most respectable advertisers are looking for high ranked sites.
All I am trying to say Vic is you have to look at the source of the problem, and the source is Google!!
Hope you see my point dude! I make better points in videos….lol
Collin Google has the best algorithm period that is why they are number the number one this not not debatable. I will not spend time debating with some one if he is clueless to the algorithm. Show me the mathematical equation to the algorithm applied to one of your pages and then we will debate till then all you are doing is repeating shit you read some where.
I was not talking about there algorithm or how they built there search engine.I follow all there rules to a tee on my site as I am looking and wanting the most out of there search engine as many others do.
What I was talking about was the fact they created the market in the first place. And I never read about this somewhere else, I have first hand experience with this exact same situation off line with a very large American company where the end results was a massive spawn of more businesses due to them not seeing past the end of their noses.
Collin no they did not crate the market again buddy I am not going to debate this
