How to creat a successful blog


It's very easy to create a blog, you don't have to spend a dime, it's totally free as there are many service providers to host your blog, you will only need an computer with internet access and your good to go, but statistically 90% of blogs don't last for more than a week, and if they are monetized they don't earn more than 2 dollars, on the other hand the other 10% gain popularity and earn money, and I am going to show you why.

The starting point is the same, you start with creating a blog using any host, I personally prefer Blogger and it will be our tool during this tutorial.

Step1: (Getting Started)

Go to Blogger.com and begin by making an account, the whole data process is very simple and doesn't deffer from any registration process, but the main trick is choosing the right URL for your blog, sadly you will find most of the good names are taken, but you can always choose your desired address and then follow it with a (-) then your name, that makes it easy for search engines to enlist you in the right place.
Then you will be asked to choose a template, I say choose your most appealing template as you will change it later.

As you get logged on to your dash board you will find four main links underneath your blog, and they are: ( Edit Posts – Settings – Layout – Monetize ).

Step2: (Optimizing)

We will start with the Settings tab, the trick in this tab is in formatting link; you will find an option that indicates how many post to show on the main page, I would advice that they would be only 3 or 4, but not more.
That is the most bases you will need for optimization and more tips are still to come.

Step3: (Decorating)

We will now discuss the Layout tab, first you will find a link for changing the template, try to choose a template that serves your subject and theme, match your colors with the signals and feelings you want to transmit to your reader, try not to use very bright colors and also avoid darkness, use calming and eye friendly colors, that will draw more attention to your content. You can view an example at BreakYourLimits

Step4: (Monetizing)

Using the Monetize tab you will be able to determine whether you will use ads or not, an then using the Layout tab you can select where to place them. You can view an example at ArabSportNews

Each one of those steps will be thoroughly explained in the upcoming posts.
