STOP! If you think this article is about spamming other people's blogs with affiliate links, it's not.
Sure, Generating blog from other people's blogs via direct links to affiliate programs is the easy way out.
* No developing your own blog * Little creative thinking * Money can be made
I've only one word to say to you if this is or will be your method of advertising.
STOP!
Not only will it get you banned from any good blogs within the given niche you are targeting, but also people have no interest in direct blatant advertising being shoved in their face.
You can however make serious money using blogs that belong to other people.
How?
Good question.
First decide on a given targeted niche. There is so much information on the web about targeting niches that I'm not going to cover that here. Bottom line? Do it or die a quick Internet marketing nightmarish death. Also, pick a niche target that either you know something about or are willing to study do massive studying within. Don't pretend to be something your not, people see right through that and it stinks.
Second, find out what others are writing about within a given niche. I use HitTail.com to complete this process and recommend the same for everyone else who is serious about building an audience within a given target market. I also recommend SEO Elite, which will clearly identify who the experts are within a given niche. These experts are your friends!
Third, with your knowledge and their position begin placing relevant interesting clear concise comments on their blogs that are directly related to an article or articles they have posted. This sentence is so critical to your success that it bears repeating...
"With your knowledge and their position begin placing relevant interesting clear concise comments on their blogs that are directly related to an article or articles they have posted."
DO NOT "BIRD WALK" THEIR BLOG!
If you don't have anything to add to their specific topic, then don't add anything.
Wait!
Read!
Wait some more.
Then when you have something really important to add to what is being said it is time to add your comments. Repeat that as often as possible within their blog and you will become an expert authority that people listen to when reading this blog.
Not only will this help your Google PR level (If they have a good Google PR) but you will also start building an audience to your own website from their blog. With most blogs there is absolutely no reason why you can't include highly relevant links back to your website if they are EXACTLY that.
* Not advertising * Not spam * Not anything but highly relevant links to the exact topic at hand.
Perhaps these links will need to be subjugated to your signature line (keep it short) within the comment but the link will be their none-the-less.
On the page that people visit from their blog include two things.
* A sign up form for your automated newsletter. You do have an automated Email newsletter don't you? Please tell me you do. Otherwise you're throwing all your hard work right out the window.
* An affiliate link you would like people to visit, that is highly relevant to the exact topic at hand. There are any of a number of ways of doing this. Graphic, video & intext ads are three of my own personal favorites.
In closing, if you don't see how generating blog profits from other people's blogs is quite possible from the above information then I'd recommend you try something other than Internet marketing. May I suggest underwater basket weaving?
