Lets get right to it, you are thinking of creating a blog. Why?
Ah, that stopped you didn’t it. You’ve read the first post “Building wealth with your blog” and like the the thought of bringing in some extra money from your blog. This post looks at what it takes to plan your blog, before you even get started writing. Hopefully by the end of this post you will have some answers that help you establish the purpose of your blog.
Here are the questions we’ll look at:
- Topics
- What are you going to talk about?
- Who are you going to talk too?
- How often are you going to say it?
- Goals
- What do you want from this blog?
- What are your targets for this blog?
- Marketing
- How are you going to promote your blog?
- Investment
- What do you need to purchase for your blog?
- Will you pay to promote your blog?
- Do you have the time to write regularly?
Ultimately, you need to be able to answer “What is the purpose of this blog?” (or Why are you writing?).

Lets face it, most of us gather our income from one source. Our day job. Sure it’s possible to make a fair amount of money with your day job & if you are good at saving you can save a lot too. But what if you want to earn something extra on the side?

I’ve even seen a story one guy who earned just under $1 million in 60 days - from his website. We all hear these stories and think, “gosh that sounds easy, I’ll start a website (or blog)”. Well before we get any further I’m here to tell you if you don’t like a little hard work, you won’t make money online.
This is the first in a new series I wish to write to help you make money online, to supplement (or maybe replace) the income from your day job.

Cyan & Collis Ta’eed have just finished what looks to be a fantastic book for freelancers.
Collis & his wife Cyan are the team behind www.freelanceswitch.com the ultimate online resource for freelancers. Having been out on my own before I know how hard it can be, although for some reason every person starting out has this romantic idea about freelancing.
If the book is anything like their site, it will rapidly become must read for all people looking to go out freelancing. If you buy now the ebook is only $29, or in Jan it will be on lulu.com for $35.
