Often times people find their way to this blog consulting site because they are trying to figure out if they can actually make some money on the Internet. The answer is yes and maybe. There are people who are making a lot of money on the Internet. There are some people who make a little bit of money on the Internet, and there are some people who don’t make any money and actually lose money by giving it to the people who are making money.

If you are thinking that you should be able to make a lot of quick easy money on the Internet, you need some blog consulting, because you are wrong. If you would like to start your own business, that you work at part time and start by making a little bit of money that eventually develops into more money, then the Internet might be a good fit for you. There are actually a quite a few ways to make money. You can use Adsense from Google to monetize your site with other peoples ads. You get paid for clicks from those ads. Some clicks are worth two or three cents, while others can be worth one, two, or three dollars. For Adsense to be really effective you have to have a lot of traffic on your website. You can get involved in affiliate programs where you recommend products or services from your blog and you get paid by the sale or by the click. Again traffic is important. You can also sell advertising space on your blog once it is developed.

One approach to consider, is to start a lot of websites that make a little bit of money. If you can get a website online in a short period of time, that doesn’t require a lot of maintenance, that makes you fifty cents or a dollar a day, that doesn’t seem like much. But what if as you got used to starting blogs you realized that you could get a site up and running in a couple of hours. That you could easily get five new sites started every week, and if each site could make you a dollar a day, by the time you got a hundred websites running you could start making a reasonable income. You could then further develop the sites that capture the most organic traffic and turn them in to more significant income producers.

In this series of articles I will outline for you how to get blogs started for very little money, just like the title implies, ten websites for ten dollars a year. If those ten websites can make you ten dollars a day, then you have a good start. You can keep adding ten websites for ten dollars a year and over time develop a nice steady income. Each site will only cost you a dollar a year, so you can start an unlimited number of sites. In our next article in the series we will start laying the groundwork for the first ten blogs/websites.

Once you get your blog going you will want to build some traffic to your site.  One of the best ways to start building traffic is article marketing.  Article marketing is taking articles that you write and submitting them to be published on the Internet.  When you submit your articles you are allowed to put two links back to your site in the Author bio at the end of the article.  This is good not only for SEO but will also bring people to your site.

There are a lot of sites that are set up to publish your articles.  Many of them are free.  One of the best free services is EzineArticles (www.ezinearticles.com).  There are some guidelines you need to follow to submit an article, but once you figure out the process, it is easy to get your articles into the right format.

Personally, I use a paid service to publish my articles called Article Marketers (click here to find out about the services offered at Article Marketers).  The advantage to using Article Marketers is that they take the articles I submit and then work with a lot of different publishing sites across the Internet.  This saves me a lot of time which I can devote to working on my blog.  It is not unusual to get one article published hundreds of times.  Each time your article is published you get two links, and you get a little more traffic.

Here is the way I get articles together for Article Marketers.  When I finish writing an article for one of my sites, I take the article and rewrite it.  I keep the same ideas but I change the words, the headings, and the order of things.  This gives me an original article to submit for publishing.  You never want to submit an article that you have posted on your site without doing a rewrite.  It may take you a few tries to get the article format figured out at Article Marketers, but they are really good to work with, and once you figure it out you will be very happy witht the results.  We will be looking at other ways to draw traffic to your site in future Blog Consulting articles.
