It was 9 AM on a Tuesday morning. Coffee in hand, I started my work day, checking my website’s email to see what sort of letters I get today. As usual, the majority of it is spam. “Your PayPal account has been limited”. “My husband died, and I’d like to transfer $3,999,999 to your bank account.” Sound familiar? 🙂
I click over to the final email in my inbox, when my eyes shoot wide open.
When I started writing my first book, I had no idea it would be one of the greatest learning experiences of my life. Not only did it transform the way I write, it changed the way I look at writing completely. Here are a few things I learned while writing my first eBook, “Blogging For Profit: A Beginner’s Guide To Starting Your Very Own Web Business”.
Note: This post is outdated, and the book mentioned is no longer available. Instead, it has been drastically expanded upon, and is now part of my blogging course, which you can view by clicking here!
I’ve kept this post for historical purposes only.
We all reach that point in our lives where we are incredibly busy. The point where we have to put certain things on hold for a while. Unfortunately, that time has come to me for the past few months, and I was unable to work on one of my favorite web sites – this one.
Having just started college, I was completely overwhelmed with the amount of extra work I’d have for me. While I’m taking all of the online classes I can, the amount of studying I must do to succeed is proving to be quite the challenge.
However, I couldn’t tame my passion for blogging, so I decided to take up a new challenge – writing a book. And guess what? It’s done! Blogging For Profit: A Beginner’s Guide To Starting Your Very Own Web Business! will be available on Amazon’s Kindle store and the Google Play store later this week. Through writing this book, I’ve gained invaluable experience that I can’t wait to share with you. I’m a better writer and a better blogger as a result.
Fortunately, times are clearing up and I’ll be able to return to working on Help Start My Site Again.
There are also some other changes coming to the website that I think you will love. You’ll see them when they happen :).
Thanks for your understanding and I look forward to getting back to regular schedule!

Imagine if you could make a living off talking about your favorite video games online? This dream is a reality for many bloggers and webmasters around the world, who have already put forth the effort to enter the video game niche and succeed with it. Unfortunately, it’s not as easy it sounds – the market is very competitive and you’ll have to take a unique approach if you want to stand out for your competitors.
This approach will require patience, and a slightly different method of making money. Based on my own experience, this is what works best if you want to make money blogging about video games.
Amazon affiliate sites used to be extremely popular. After all, how nice would it be to set up a product review website, write up some articles, and then sit back and collect nearly passive income from search engine traffic? It was great, and many people capitalized on this opportunity to do exactly that. Recently however, many of these sites started disappearing, and fewer and fewer have been starting up. What happened? Can you actually still make money off of Amazon product review sites? Do product review sites still work?Â
