FAQ

Will there be any loss to the visitors that click your ads?
The answer is No. Every click is payable by the providers (e.g. Google, ClickSor) which charges advertisers for a fee to place their products or services via them at your blog.

In another word, the money you receive is in fact from the advertisers and these providers are just middleman that faciliate the service.

So do I click any ads when I am visiting others' blogs?
Why not? If it is something that interests you, a recommended product or services that you find value add, just click it.

The visitors get values from the links, the bloggers get to earn some coins or dollars, the ad providers make a cut also and the advertisers get to have a new potential customer too. Everyone wins! :)

Go for a marathon not a short run

Thursday, March 15, 2007

The thing about blogging and especially if you are looking to earn a few dollars from it, you must realize that it is a marathon and not those 100m dash.

It requires a lot of stamina to continue writing, coming up with interesting articles, make changes to your blog to engage your readers often. A lot of brainstorming is needed to come out with a new entry that is meaningful and worth the while for others to read. Otherwise if it is a cut-and-paste job, it will dilute the value of your blog and others may just visit once and that's it.

There is no fast rules on how to do it, I say just practice and practice and overtime the writing and its the content will improve.
