Writing great blog post that captures your audience probably has everything to do with your success to make money online.

Why?

Great content will always attract humans, search engines, and anyone who is interested in that information.

How do I write a blog post and capture my audience?

Well, there are numerous ways to do it but I can share you my strategy to this.

For me, I focus on satirical, humorous writing that will make the reader laugh.

Why?

The world is full of great information.  Especially the internet, you can go to 10 different blogs for the same information.

To have a competitive edge, you need to differ from your fellow bloggers.

Let me ask you a question.  Would you rather read a boring, monotonous blog post or a funny, interesting blog post?

Of course, most people would favor the latter.

Now, you need to write each blog post with a topic in your mind that is so worth reading and worth the reader’s time.

Let’s take an example.

I write a tech blog over at Zedomax.com.  Now, there’s so many thousand tech blogs out there, and most of the sites cover what everyone else covers.

To differentiate, I only pick the most interesting gadgets, DIYs, and tech news with emphasis on anything that I can make a joke out of.

The big blogs like Engadget and Gizmodo both cover every inch of tech news including which Sony execs had for breakfast.

Basically, I am the human, humorous, interesting comedian-filter for those big blogs while inputting some of my own niche topics.

Again, the world doesn’t need more MBA graduates to write long and boring blog posts that might be very accurate but still very boring.

What the world needs is simply writers who can describe an event in couple sentences with ability to make someone laugh.

Well, this blog post might have been very long and boring, perhaps I am a hypocrite.  Fuc*.

There’s couple simple rules I go by when blogging for money.

It’s pretty simple but it can help you to become a better blogger while increasing your monthly income.

1. Concentrate on extraordinary results of extraordinary ideas.

What do I mean?

Well, you need to find a great niche before you even start blogging.  That’s the extraordinary idea.

After you do find it, you need to focus on blogging, whether that’s 1 post per day or 10 posts per day, you need to stick with your plan for at least one year before you can expect any extraordinary results.

2. Build on your strengths, forget about your weaknesses.

What do I mean?

You need to make your strengths better and better and better.

This could be your writing style.  As for me, I have always strive to become a humor blogger on every blog I write.  Basically, I try to twist the English language as much as possible to get a laugh from the audience on every blog post.

To do this, I have even bought myself 2-3 books on creative, humor writing.

Forget about your weaknesses because if your strengths are great enough, your weaknesses will disappear eventually.

My weakness is that I don’t have the talent of an English Masters degree but I feel that my writing has been getting better simply from writing a LOT.

This may apply to your life too.  Sometimes people like to point out how bad you are at something but I tend to ignore all that bullshit and prove them otherwise with my strengths.  No matter what you do in life, your strengths will feed you food everyday and gain recognition among your peers.  Forget the haters, they focus too much on others to achieve anything for themselves anyways.

The best niche market I have found for Adsense ads really are the local niche markets.

What do I mean by “local” niche markets?

These are regionalized, localized markets that have an audience of one city, one county, or in other words, a small audience.

Why would you benefit from such a small market?

Well, it’s really common sense.  Because the audience is so small, your click rate skyrockets.

What is a “local” niche market?

Well, the “best” Adsense performer blog that I have is SFOneOfAKind.com.  It’s a blog about luxury real estate in San Francisco.

I cannot tell you more details than it’s the best performer as far as CPC (Cost per Click) is concerned.

It’s actually one of my “dead” blogs that I’ve began to monetize and blog as of lately.

There are tons of other “local” niche markets you can find such as “New York City Automobile Blog” or “Los Angeles Best Restaurant Blog”.

These are niche blogs that cater to only a very small portion of the internet audience.

Because the audience is so small, there’s more competition among the advertisers so in return, you the publisher can expect higher CPC.

Of course, this isn’t the case for everything, it’s always best to rely on trial and error.

Do you have a “local” niche market?

These local, niche market maybe the undiscovered gems among niche blogs and you my friend, just been told of another Adsense secret.

Now, go take your medicine and make a couple local, niche blogs to try it out yourself.

A lot of websites forget that the number one search engine optimization which is your site or blog’s title.

This is the title that shows up on the top of your browser, usually tagged with HTML code like, “<title>my title</title>”.

Why is this the most important?

Well, your title pretty much sets the “tone” for your website or blog.

Now, if you look at some websites, you will notice that there’s simply a title of their website brand such as “Zedomax.Biz”.

This is like not taking advantage of the best free SEO your website can get.

For example, you will notice that the browser title on this blog is actually “Zedomax.Biz - Insider Adsense Secrets and Ad Optimization”.

I am actually targeting my target keywords on my title.  So long as I write about my title, it will be greatly beneficial for my blog to show up first on Google.

This is probably the number one basic SEO that all SEO specialist will do first.

I’ve seen some ecommerce sites go from the 10th page for their target keyword to the 4th place on the 1st page.   It’s really common sense but a lot of people overlook it.

Make a great title that will tell readers what your website is about and also targetting your keyword whether that’s making money online or whatever.

Here’s another great tool to search for the best keywords from Google Keyword Tool if you need help finding a good niche.

Remember to pick a niche not so big and competitive but big enough where you will have zero competition.

One of the best ways to increase web search engine traffic is to write a blog post about something no other “blog” has written about.

How to go about this?

Well, first you need to research which search terms are currently giving you the most web traffic.

For example, if your blog is about travel and gets 20% of daily traffic from the search term, “best hotels in america”, you need to consider the fact that your one of your blog’s strength is about “best of something in somewhere”.

After finding out what search terms your blog gets most, simply change the wording around to something like, “best inns in south america”.

Then, do a Google search on, “best inns in south america”.  Now, if you see a lot of results that point to blogs, this isn’t a good title for your next blog post.

However, if you see no blog results, this might be a great title for your next blog post as there’s no competition for that search term.

Now, you do this process over and over for all your top-ranking search terms and I guarantee you that every blog post you write is super-niche and you will likely to show up before anyone else on Google.

In other words, “Write about what noone is writing about“.  It’s really simple as that.  But do keep in mind that the target search term would be something that would be searched a lot.  Don’t write about something that no one would search for, that’d be stupid.

The internet world is amazing.

10 years ago when people were hyped up with the dot com boom era, it
wasn’t common to find teenagers making more money than college
graduates from a single website, supposedly constructed as a blog.

I remember the first person in my family to blog was actually my mom.
She is a really good blogger and meets a lot of people her age through
her blog.  Basically as a local city moderator of a niche blog such as
40 year old women’s sports blog, my mom has proved to me what the
power of internet communication medium can do long before I even knew
the definition of blogging.

I guess sometimes things are passed down a lot whether that took 100
years or justa few years in the case of mine.

So how will all this blogging have or will change the world?

Well, it’s already been proved that a single individual with no
knowledge of college books nor sophisticated English language can make
a living from blogging.

While we thought the end of blogging was near, the carrot seems to
trick us more into the future jobs.

Can you imagine a school project consisting of a high school wide
publication by every high schoolers?
Now, that’s some amount of high school grammar and articles, which
could be great for gathering a infinite amount of search engine terms.

Of course, I have yet to hear of such a case but if I was a school
teacher, that might be the project I might go after.

Amount of new information created everyday in our world is too
enormous for television, newspaper, and magazines to cover.

A blog thwarts that by being able to archive old news while providing
news around the clock.

Today, we will talk about adsense secrets that the professional bloggers don’t tell you. What is it?

Well, it first and foremost includes capturing a niche market and not telling anyone else about it.

Once your niche grows big enough and you capture a good share of that market, you won’t have to worry as much.

It’s really about finding a good niche that not many people are blogging about. It’s simple as that and you need to keep trying different things until your revenue stream starts rising a little.

One of the things that can happen while blogging is that you can easily burn yourself out by blogging too much.

A solution to this problem?

You need to setup your home office so you will be relaxed.

As for me, I’ve recently moved my desk to where my sofa used to sit in my livingroom to take advantage of the ocean view and beautiful outdoor scenary while I blog.  Now, I can look out the window and see people, cars, and the ocean after every blog post to clear my mind.

With the recent changes, I have been more or less comfortable and creative about blogging.

If you feel very stagnant in your home office, I suggest you to move all your furniture around until you feel like you have moved into a new home.

There are also many other ways to refresh your mindset about blogging.  You can probably listen to different music, work at different hours, or take breaks.

By misspelling, you can bring extra traffic to your blog.

Why?

Well, if you misspell a word, it’s most likely that someone will be misspelling that word while searching for something on Google.

Now, your chances of getting the “misspelled” traffic is good if you are one of the only ones writing the blog post.

How do I bring more traffic by misspelling?

It’s simple.  Do not correct your misspellings.  If you want to, simply use the cross-out function to correct your mispellings.

I’ve had so much more traffic by misspelling something by accident then if I had spelled it right.

A lot of probloggers tell you to spell correctly which is good for reading but as I have explained here, you can get some extra traffic by not correcting your misspellings.

Heck, there’s even a blog about misspelling just launched over here.

A blog is an organic thingee.

What does that mean?

Well, a blog is not a static “website”.

You don’t set up a blog and call it quits.  A blog is a continuous stream of information.

A real blog is backed up by a blogging software that has been designed for the blogger to write a new blog post daily, hourly, or even every minute.

Why is this good?

Blogs are called “Web 2.0″ because of their organic nature.  Since blogs are constantly updated, it forces search engines to “crawl” the site, thus giving the blog a stable increase in web traffic.

Let’s say you stop blogging for 3 months due to personal emergencies or vacations.  The blog still maintains the average web traffic you have been receiving and simply won’t grow until you get back to write more.  Of course, you web traffic could decrease a little but because of the “organic” nature, a blog will maintain its search term traffic even if you stop blogging.

A blog is organic because it keeps growing no matter what you do, unless you make the search engine gods mad.

Of course, there are other software that is similar to blogging that you could call organic but no other type of writing platform software gives you all a blog has to offer including blog search engines, pinging, trackbacks, etc…etc…

Blogs will take over the world of information eventually.  (if they haven’t already)

Go to the bookstore and open up “any” magazine and I bet you there’s at least 1 mention of a blog.

Watch MTV all day and there’s a mention of a blog.  (probably more)

Blogs are great business as they are not completely affected by the U.S. economy.  Your readers consist from international readers.

Why you should be blogging?

It’s been getting harder and harder to get a real job in the U.S.  Even when I graduated from college years ago, there were no jobs and there are no jobs now.

Of course, if you finish at top of your class, you would be guaranteed a job but what about the other 99% of college students?

That’s right, the real world is not fair.  No matter how good of grades you get, you are not guaranteed to even get a job in this real world.

So, what are you waiting for?  Go start a blog.  At least you have a backdoor out of the real world.

Start living it up in your home office, save time and carbon footprint by not having to commute 2 hours per day.

There are 18 year olds who are making more money than Stanford MBA graduates these days.  The possiblities are still endless on the internet.

Find a niche, blog, blog, blog, optimize ads, and work from home.

It’s the new world of media, unfiltered, and pure than TV, radio, newspaper, and any other traditional media.
