by Bhaskar, Bha

Or at least, it would be serious money when you use blogs to make money on the Web! After all, not every Web busybody monetizes their blogs in the belief that monetization equals prostitutions. But that is digressing.

Instead, let us focus on the ways you can make money on the Web specifically by selling your thoughts and by selling your blog. Here is how.

Sell Your Thoughts

And the drama behind it. That is how the likes of the Go Fug Yourself girls and Perez Hilton blogger make money by putting drama into otherwise mundane matters like fashion faux pas and celebrity gossips for help visit www.feed-reader-links.com. Of course, you can be as helpful as you want on topics like how to instructional blogs on everything from apples to zebras, celibacy to sex, and whatever niche you want to tap into.

And this is where you can make money on the Web niche blogging. Your market will be people who are either fanatical about the topic or into special research on the topic. With the millions of people logging on to the Internet every day, you can find more than a handful of people who will patronize your sites and the advertisers therein.

For example, Jay Brewer launched his blog on a very specific subject: one cup coffee makers. Wonder of wonders! There are people out there who love the topic and soon enough, advertisers came knocking on his online door.

Add in affiliate marketing and featured advertisements and you have more ways to make money on the Web using just your writing savvy and sassy approach to the blog niche! You need not even start big; instead, focus on garnering attention to your blog, sustaining the interest and offering fresh perspectives on old topics for help visit www.instant-blog-and-ping.com. And when you do, watch advertisers trooping to your site! Learning technical requirements and terms will help, too.

Sell Your Blog

If you get tired of blogging about the same topic for months on end and you have run out of fresh ideas and perspectives, then it is time to sell the drama. Don t abandon the blog because you will be putting it at the mercy of online copycats and they will earn money based on your ideas! No can do.

Instead, you can go to the Sitepoint Marketplace where you can participate in the online auctions of Web sites and domain names. This way, you can take a nice profit from the sale of your well established blog while relinquishing control over its maintenance.

Before you go about selling your blog as a means to make money on the Web, remember these selling points, which are not by any chance comprehensive and complete:

Domain Name, including name recognition and value

Date Blog Established

Technorati, Alexa, Google, Yahoo rankings

Web traffic statistics for at least a year, including feeds and unique visitors

Number of posts, articles and comments

Inventory of web assets

Contractual obligations

Indeed, selling your blog can take up time but the money you earn during its successful run and its sale can compensate for the trouble.

Just remember that the Web is the new global marketplace. When you take its dynamics to heart, you will discover to your bank accounts delight that indeed, you can and you will make money on the Web!

Web content is a way to keep your readers entertained and/or informed. Websites that contain Web content generally contain articles. But these sites may also have photos, videos, and audio files to keep the readers interested. Online businesses may use web content to attract potential customers to their site.

Web copy is the copy used by a site in order to get a particular type of response- often used by businesses to persuade the reader. Copy may encourage readers to buy something, to sign up for something (such as an email newsletter), or even to click on a specific link on your website. All of the Web copy conveys a particular image to its readers, and that includes the slogan and the Web copy on the more utilitarian about us, contact us, media information page, etc.

How do you use Web copy and Web content to make more money online? Here's how you use it:

Web content- There are lots of sites out there that depend on content to produce their revenue. Large content sites, such as About.com, which is owned by the NYT Corp., use content to bring readers, but many small sites do as well. To make more money online with Web content, use content to draw and keep site visitors while finding ways to monetize the website (such as including advertisements or having a membership fee to view the Web content). There are many ways to use your web content to make more money:

1. Only use the best quality Web content possible. Quality content brings in more readers, is generally optimized well without a lot of SEO attention, and will then attract good backlinks to your site. This gives you better search engine ranking, which in turn brings you higher traffic counts and makes you more money.

2. Keep your website fresh with new Web content. To keep readers coming back again, keep the site updated regularly with new content- as readers come back again, your traffic counts go up and you make more money from that content. Web content updates should be as frequent as possible, even if it is only updated once a week or month.

3. Use content that will bring readers. Use Overture or Wordtracker to find out what people are searching for. Your content doesn't have to be full of keywords, but it does have to be quality information that will bring in readers and keep them coming back. If searchers are looking for highly specific information about a certain niche, there may be a need for content on that topic. When doing this research, look at the highly searched words in comparison with the number of results those searches are turning up to get an idea for how much need there is on that topic.

Web copy - Webmasters use Web copy to get their readers to come back again, to buy something through the site, or to get them to come back to the site again and again. Most people have seen the sales letters used to advertise e-books, with their bright colors, many subheadings, multiple order links and testimonials.

The Web copy used to sell an item doesn't have to be that flashy. All order pages have copy that is meant to persuade and to get an immediate purchase of the items, and perhaps even more items as well. Guarantees are used to get the reader to order quickly, without hesitating.

There are strong psychological underpinnings in good Web copy, getting people to act a certain way and with a certain outcome. Professional copywriting comes from professional copywriters- you can hire a copywriter or you can learn the craft yourself, but either way, you need that copy to make sales and to make money.
