It Seems That Blogging And Blogs Are Becoming More And More Popular!


I was (pleasantly) surprised to find out that blogging is becoming a part of college course now! Students have to create and maintain their blogs for college courses and grades!

If you are taking a course that requires you to have a blog then I would LOVE to hear from you!

"How Many Blogs Can I Have On Blogger.com?"

Here is an interesting question who's answer I thought was obvious but since someone asked it then I guess its not that obvious at all.

You are allowed to have as many blogs as you like on Blogger.com! You can have personal blogs as well as blogs that you create to help your business and / or to help you make money.

However I suppose the best reply would be that you should has as many blogs as you could provide content for on a regular basis.

"How Do I Add A Donate Button To My Blog?"

One of the ways that one can make money from their blogs is to add a donation!

The most simplest (and best) way that I know of to add a donation button to your blog is for you to sign up with Paypal.

As you can see by looking at this blog there is a Paypal button on here.

You have to join the Paypal program first and you will need a bank account and a credit or debit card.

Once you have been accepted into the program you can click on the merchant link and get your coding for adding a donation button to your site.

Why Is Blogger.com Tagging My Blog As A Spam Blog?



If your blog is not a spam blog, please remember not to take this personally! Blogger.com is trying to weed out spam blogs and the criteria that their robots use to classify a blog as a spam blog, unfortunately, will flag a legitimate blog that is not a spam blog.

If your blog is tagged as a spam blog you can post to the Blogger help groups or fill out a report by clicking here

How Can I Make Money With My Blog?

One of the most popular ways to make money with your blog is to add Adsense ads.

(*For more information about Adsense, please be sure to visit my The Adsense Consultant Blog)

Before you can join the adsense program you will have to submit the URL of your website or blog so that it can be reviewed and approved. Once your site is approved then you can go through the steps of picking the layout of your Adsense Ads - ie color and size. HOWEVER you DON'T get to pick out the specific ads that will be appearing on your site because that will be determined by the content on your site.

Just in case you're wondering there have been some Adsense Millionaires out there!

Of course Google's Adsense Program is not the only affiliate ad-related program out there - although I haven't really seen any that I like enough yet!

If you do decide to find out more about these other affiliate programs I advise you to read everything over carefully so that you will not get scammed!

If your blog (or website) is very popular then you may be able to have the advertisers come to YOU! Perez Hilton is a very good example of this! His celebrity-related blog became SO popular that he charges advertisers $6,000 a week to advertise on his blog!

Greatest Journals?

Does anyone have a journal on Greatest Journals.com?

It seems that their site is down! You can't post new entries and they are even suggesting that you get a new journal hosting site?
