You may be aware that blogging is the easiest way to have a website online but  not be aware of just how easy it is to do everything yourself.

" If you've been a blogger longer than one day, then you've found out something rather wonderful... It's FUN!!  

With the simplest of tweaks you can have a fantastic looking site and all you really need to add is some words.

Blogging is fun for a few days but when you've been a blogger longer than a week, the glow gradually fades...

You start to see things on other people's blogs that you want on yours. You wonder "How do I do that?".  On other people's blogs,  people are talking and interacting with each other and suddenly you are discontented, suddenly you think...

 A blog with no comments is like a pub with no beer, mate!

A blog can be everything a website can be if you use the right plugins.

A webmaster or blogmaster could certainly save you lots of time building you a blog if you don't want to learn - but it could end up costing you thousands of dollars. And the thing is - all the materials are free, so all you really need is the blueprint and an instruction manual. 

You couldn't ask for more unless you want to be like everyone else on the web. In that case, this isn't for you, you can just sign up for a free blog and struggle along in the normal fashion. So this module I guess is about mechanics, content and design.

Have fun with your blog!

 OK we'll run through a few examples of text so you can sample what's in there...

• Old Aunt Agony will bring you Gossip Comments 
  
  There is nothing like a dire moral dilemma or a bit of hot scandal to get people gossiping. Remember the dear old Agony Aunt column of the newspaper? Where people wrote in and asked a question and sought advice. Well it's as valid a column today as it ever was then, especially for niche blogs such as dating. 
  
  You could seek out already asked questions to get people started on Ask.com or in forums. Or you can email and beg your readers for some juicy questions so you can delight them with cheeky answers. 
  
  Add a little drama and pathos to your answers. Learn to tell a story with examples. Fail a bit, improve a bit - appeal to people's emtions. Make them laugh, get them angry, tug on their heart strings.
  
  I tell you that one emotional article will out pull 10 dispassionate ones (however well written and informative) and Aunt Agony gives the best advice on the web. Keep your pillar articles there to attract links. Use  a Q&A or FAQ tactic for comments.
  
  Do you like doing trivia quizzes? Get roped into doing surveys and polls? Q&A and FAQs are great content for sites and blogs. I found a few great plugins to use that entice people to interact with things like this and it really does encourage people to overcome that initial resistance to take an active part rather than be the passive reader.
   
• The Newest, Most Unique Ways People Are Updating Their Blogs 
  
  Keeping a blog fresh and pinging often are not new tactics but do you know how easy it can be? With a few simple to use plugins ( no configuration) you can ensure that if you take a weeks break, your blog does not suffer from a lack of action on your part. These plugins do it all for you and surprise even yourself with their ability to add timely great content to your blog.
  
• A RARELY used Plugin that'll ...
  
  Oops! That was a marketing headline that doesn't work for blogs! Fact is that rarely used plugins are usually rarely used because they are difficult to configure or they don't play well with other plugins and cause a problem. It's the popular plugins that are important.
  
  That's why I've included a select listing of best plugins that have great functions. These have been tried and tested by hundreds of blog owners who have left delighted comments about them.
  
  Now the frequent Wordpress updates mess this up all the time. That's why we give you the links and have you download them from the author sites. That way you can read if the plugin is playing up in a new version and you can get the bug fixed ones.
  
• Simply By Helping Others ...You Can Earn Commissions!
  
  Internet Marketing is a multi meaning word for advertising, promotion, supply and networking. It isn't sales just by itself, it is a range of systems to use to promote something.
  
  One of the easiest articles to write, that is actively searched for by internet sites and clients, is the review.
  
  Product pages (landing or sales pages) are there to sell.
  
  A review is an objective appraisal of a product from one person's point of view. It's ok to say there are things you don't like and it's ok to rave about something. It's ok to describe a few favourite features and fine to toss in a story about your experience with the product or site. It's even ok to write a long short story of a personal experience and just mention a product (with a link) in passing.
  
  These kinds of articles are actually far more interesting to read than sales pages or ads - they help people to come to a decision just by introducing something they have not yet come across before.
  
  If you just make a blog on reviews, this is a good tactic . A review niche for a topic is a great strategy. Help people - and you will be rewarded. Sell to people and the results may nor be anywhere near so effective. Just lead the people - don't push them.
  
  Blogging is about good writing, good articles, good information - leave the selling to the sales page and you'll be a super affiliate in many more senses than the traditional one.
   
• Can You Achieve Pro Blogger Status In Today's Competitive World?
  
  You bet you can - would you like to become one of them? Don't get me wrong, it will take time. Even best selling authors take a few years to achieve bestselling status. Unless you're already an ad man like Bryce Courtney, it almost never happens overnight. But with persistence and a constant approach, it can be achieved ..
  
  IF you really have something worth saying or displaying. 
  
  It kinda goes without saying that you can't become a pro blogger without having something to blog about that is worth reading!
  
  But a pro has an image to make for him or herself and a nice Web2.0 theme with square sponsered ads and a post on the left is the current fashion. Do you want a free premium theme like that ? I can tell you where to get several...
  
• Want to Know the fastest way to start getting blog traffic... 
  
  Sites like Blog Catalog, Bloglines and Bumpzee. Communities of bloggers just like you looking to interact.  That give you a widget showing the faces of the people that are visiting. We discuss several sites like this and a other great ways to promote as well.
  
  Social network sites are great too, but the best ways are listed in our traffic module (along with 25 other fantastic ways to get people interacting with your blog and spreading the word about you.)
  
• Do you know the one Critical Thing You Must Do To Guarantee That People Stay and Read at Least One Page!
  
  You either have to be a good writer or have a great topic. Now to be honest I think great writers are born not made, although there are thousands of how to write books on the market.
  
  A "good" writer however is someone who writes in a unique way. As I say in the book, it doesn't have to be intellectual, or even creative, but it does have to have a unique point of view.
  
  This is your voice. There's no need to copy other people or pretend to be someone you are not. Just be yourself and your content will show 'you' the way your friends see you. A picture of you on your blog helps as well - which reminds me... something else to put on my list of things to do.
  
  Having a good topic is sometimes the smarter option for most of us which is where niche marketing research comes in. And if marketing isn't the part you want to concentrate on , that's fine - but don't throw the niche out with the hype.
  
  The niche is what will draw people to you, it is also what will bring people back to you. Even an average writer can dominate a niche with the right techniques because it is the niche that people are looking for. If you don't know what a niche is, it is a small 'in demand' specific area of a topic.
  
  Everyone knows something about something. Just enter a trivia competition with a team and see for yourself - there are people who have a huge general knowledge who will quickly answer a majority of questions but a quiet member on the team will often come through and surprise everyone with an answer just because it's something they happen to have studied, worked on or just take an interest in.
  
  This is the kind of niche you'll be looking to concentrate on. When you talk (or blog) about something you know, there is a real insight into the topic that comes through in your articles, this is what will keep people reading.
  
  The more you write about things you enjoy (and want to know more about yourself), the more you'll feel better about blogging. As a marketer, it may sometimes be necessary to choose a niche for profitability. But for a first niche, blog about something you really feel a passion about. You can get clever later when you have all the rest of the system down pat.

Learn all the tips and tricks to make a professional  looking blog with this module.

The basics are there, activating a plugin, adding analytics, adsense and pictures, basic modification to themes such as header replacements. SEO for blogs is there as are the different plugins you'll use for this and for many other functions such as blog sidebar navigation for related and popular posts. Slow loading is solved, feeds in and out are explained and a small area is devoted to other blog platforms.
 
This is a system of training. It's not just about making money or owning a business blog, or a vlog, or a photo blog, or moblogging but about you - and having a great blog. One that shows you in the best of lights, the decorations on the icing over the cake, the paint on the walls, the knick knacks of your personality and how to display your content in a way that all the best is on show and all the rest is in the basement.
