Make Money Online in Blogging

Do you have the passion to write?

Or do you just simply love to write anything?

If yes, then why not blog all about those things you have in mind and make money out of it?

A blog is like an online diary to simply explain.

Now, blogging is just one of the ways on how you can earn money online though it’s a longer process compared to others, like becoming a Virtual Assistant for example. Despite the time it'll take before you can really earn hard cash, blogging is proven to be one of the most effective ways to earn cash through the internet.

So how do you earn money through blogging?

First, you need of course to create a blog using a free and open source blogging tool. You can either use Wordpress or Blogger. Think of something you’d like to share or write about, and use your blog to communicate your ideas to the world. Then earn from it through Google Adsense. It’s a feature by which Google places ads on your blog and pays you depending on the traffic your website generates, or on the number of clicks viewers made on the Google ads in your website.

(Traffic refers to the number of visitors who view your website.)

So, what I have for you right now is help you create a blog using blogger since it's what I have been using myself.
By the way, all you need to have is a gmail account! So, you've got nothing to lose!

Check out the video below on how to create a blog using blogger.

Note: Since application to Google Adsense is hard nowadays, most specifically to those located in Asia, you're adviced to blog for about 5-6 months and apply for adsense afterwards.

Why Should You Not Rely on a Manual Money Machine?

What’s the very first thing that comes into your mind when I say “money machine”?

Well, from the word “money machine” itself; it’s something or anything that generates money.

Actually, I got this word from one of my mentors here in the country. In one of his books I’ve read, money machines are defined as your jobs, business, self-employment, paper assets and properties. Literally, these are called money machines because these (job, business, self-employment, paper assets and properties) produces money for you.

Now, allow me to introduce to you the 2 types of Money Machines: Manual Money Machines and Automatic Money Machines

Your Job and Self-Employment are said to be manual money machines because you are exchanging time for money. You delegate your time and effort in exchange for an “active income”. You work 8 hours today and you get paid for it.

On the other hand, paper assets and properties are considered automatic money machines because these (paper assets and properties) generates money for you automatically, without your full supervision. You spend only a spare of your time while your automatic money machines produce a “passive income” for you everyday, even while you’re sleeping or you’re on a vacation in Boracay perhaps. And how do you like that? J

That’s what you call earning while on Vacation!

The Wrong Concept of Having a Manual Money Machine

How can this be a wrong idea when you’re earning money from your efforts and the time you spent?

Allow me to explain.

I know your job puts food on your table. It can buy you clothes and all other stuffs you needed. It can even give you a little financial security. And for that reason, some employee feels a false sense of security with their job which is dangerous.

Why?

How to Smell a Scam a Mile Away

Here’s the first rule of money: If you earn it, don’t lose it.

I’m telling you this because there have been many financial scams in the Philippines. You need to learn how to protect yourself from a scam. It’s useless to earn good money and then lose it all to a financial fraud.

Here are the six signs of a scam…

1. Insane Interest Rates

Multitel (Multinational Telecom Investors Corp.), started by Rosario “Rose” Baladjay, was probably the biggest scam in Philippine history.

Some news reports say that two million people invested in this company—which probably reached P100 billion. Reason: This Company accepted small investors—even as small as P10, 000. This company was so believable; they got many military and police officers to invest.

Why? Multitel promised four percent to five percent interest a month. They also had another offer where you could double your money in 18 months.

Did you notice? That’s 60 percent growth a year.

That’s what I call an insane interest rate.

Insanely high interest rates means a pyramid scam is going on: The Company gets money from new clients to pay off the interest of old clients. (This is what you call a Ponzi scheme, named after one of the most celebrated scammers in the history of America, Charles Ponzi.) This charade continues until there isn’t enough new money to pay off the interest rates of older clients. Soon, everything implodes.

For example, Rose Baladjay started by promising 1.1 percent a month interest to her investors.

But by its very structure, you’ll need more and more money to pay older clients, so Multitel had to keep raising the interest rates to attract more customers. Soon, it promised five percent returns a month.

But after Multitel was shut down by the government, people didn’t learn. Cyrus Yap Hao, who worked with Baladjay in Multitel, set up his own pyramid scheme. He founded Royal Manchester Five (RMF). His company promised insane high returns as well—and many more were duped and lost their money. Through Powerhomes, they dangled the promise of P3 million in earnings plus a house and lot. Around P2 billion of clients’ money was lost in RMF.

In 2008, FrancsSwiss did the same thing. It promised four percent a day for 60 days straight or 270 percent returns. But despite the insanity of those interest rates, many executives and celebrities were lured into its bottomless pit. (I know of one Vice President who sent them P10 million and lost it all.)

Remember, if the promised interest rates are too high, stop. There’s something fishy going on.
