Make Money Online

I came across this e-Book by Caroline Middlebrook a fellow UK blogger. It says on her about page she quit her job and started blogging in September 2007 which is sort of the same time I started my blog. Except Caroline has made considerable progress… Just check out these stats:

Alexa = 27K PR = 5 and RSS = a massive 1700!

Those figures really impress me.. obviously as Caroline quit her job she would of had a lot more time than a person with a job but still.. amazing progress…

Back to the eBook, which is absolutely free… Here is some info about it:

 

WordPress is a free and open source piece of software that is commonly used for developing blogs. This very blog is developed on WordPress. But what many people don’t realise is that you can do so much more with WordPress too and one of the simplest ways in which it can be used is to create old-style static websites.

Why would you want to? Because one of the most common ways to make money on the Internet today is to pick a popular topic and put together a small website consisting of articles related to that topic and monetize the site with ads. The traffic comes from search engines and once the site is setup, it just runs on auto-pilot.

Using WordPress to develop such as a site is very easy and as I show you in the book there are free addons to WordPress that make the whole process (especially the monetization!) super-easy.

What I have done to write the book is created my own little niche site from scratch and documented the whole process live, step-by-step with images. The resulting site is live and can be viewed as you work your way through the book.

The ebook is 43 pages long and these are the major sections:

• Chapter 1: Getting and Installing WordPress
• Chapter 2: Basic WordPress Administration. 10
• Chapter 3: Installing a New Theme. 13
• Chapter 4: Setting up Adsense On Your Site. 16
• Chapter 5: WordPress Plugins. 20
• Chapter 6: Creating Your Site Content
• Chapter 7: Final Thoughts
• Appendix 1: Uploading Using FTP.. 33
• Appendix 2: External Resources

I think this eBook is a great FREE resource for anybody starting out looking at trying to Make Money Online
