Whew - our whole communication system was down for TWO whole days. We live in a remote area in NW Montana and because of some avalanche hitting a main tower - we lost everything, cell service, long distance, internet - talk about feeling cut off from the rest of civilization!
This is truly one of the most beautiful places to live for the most part, but when things like that happen, we are reminded of just how remote we really and how dependent we are on technology!
But I was also reminded how beautiful it is at a time like that to be in online marketing of some sort, whether that is with money making blogs, or with some other sort of work at home stuff as even though MY computer was not working - others were happily surfing the 'net.
And I got to do some things that I normally push aside, like baking apple pies and cleaning house!
The sad fact is that I would much rather be online than clean or cook - so I need to prioritize my life every so often and get things straight about how much time I get to spend online and actually it really helps to set a schedule of some sort - especially if you are doing more than one thing online.
For instance - here is what works for me at times if I can stick to it! I am a glutton for punishment with sticking too many 'irons in the fire' so to speak!
But here is a simple guideline that helps me stay on target on what I want to get accomplished per week and then you can break it down however you need to - with your schedule.
Money Making Blogs: Blog at least twice a week - (add a keyword rich post or article to each blog)
Free Advertising: Post a new ad every other day to each, like I use craigslist and freeads the most right now and with craigslist especially, it is best to add a few ads every other day.
Forum posting - my favorite so I do some of that almost every day....
But here is how it works if you break it down - have an hour set aside every day to work on your 'money making blogs' either by posting a new blog post or writing an article that links to your blog, or even building a new Squidoo lens that links to your blog...
Remember that the more content that is keyword focused and linking to each other - the better your campaign...
The same for the free advertising - post ads linking to your blogs.
Regardless what you do to promote your money making blogs - as long as you do something each day or at least a couple times a week, eventually you will generate more and more traffic. It takes time for it to build up but if you have a good niche, it will work.
I personally follow the One Week Marketing Plan a lot and use her techniques as Jennifer has so many tricks she has mastered with blogs and Squidoo.
Regardless which 'tool' you use, follow the tips and tricks they give you and do it consistently - and you will see results!
Here is another tool I came across recently and because it is under twenty bucks, it may be a great tool to add to the 'money making blogs arsenal' ! Click Here to get to more details on it.

Is Your Blog Making Money For You?
Do you have a blog already? Or just learning to build a blog, perhaps...
Did you know that there are many, many moms that are getting paid to blog about what they love! It can be anything from babies and diapers to candies and chocolates..... or perhaps something more sophisticated like profesional blogging about being a lawyer or an herbalist.
Those are just some ideas out of the top of my head.... I personally write a lot about the subject of working at home as that is my passion and it does work the best of you can write about something you have experience in or can be passionate about.
Folks seem to pick up when we are just spouting about stuff we really have no idea on!
But I can write with authority on things like :
working leads.... making dials... network marketing... affiliate marketing.... selling on Ebay.... mlm..
Cause I have been there, done that!
And let me tell you, right off the bat - (just in case you are on here and you happen to understand that language as well..) that after spending years and thousands of dollars in network marketing, I have found my passion and that is in affiliate marketing.
Doesn't cost hardly anything to do it, and you can make pretty decent money at it... if you don't give up too quickly but we know all about being persistent and consistent , don't we, if we have been in network marketing long enough and/or have been to any personal development seminars...!
Don't get me wrong - network marketing works.... I don't doubt that for a minute... but it just didn't seem to work very well for me as I can't sell hot chocolate to an Eskimo in sub-zero weather!
So anyways, in a nutshell, affiliate marketing is like having a giant online consigment store where you can make commissions of anything you market - the trick is in getting people to your online storefront.
After using the One Week Marketing Plan, I finally have been able to get not only customers to my online storefront but also buyers, which we need if we want to stay in business, right?
If you are one of those people that has 'computer time' in the wee hours or late hours and are looking how to make money blogging, then this may be the right tool for you as well.
Get your blog making money for you and then after it is all set, find a new niche, build a blog on it - oh and I use Squidoo along with blogs but that is what PotPieGirl will cover in her stuff - she takes you through EXACTLY what she did to start making several hundred to several thousand a day with affiliate marketing.
Go grab your copy or at least download her first 18 pages for free to see if it is a fit for you... and
