Day Two (Creating your site)

Okay so now that youve taken a day to research your niche/idea and done a google trends search its time to create your site.

Now there are countless different ways to go about this. Some may argue that some of these methods are better than others but I find that regardless of your chosen media and site format you can turn profits in the thousands. I obviously used blogger to create my blog but I will soon be switching over to a paid .com domain. Other popular and completely free options are typepad and wordpress. These are both very popular options as well. Please do some careful research before choosing a place to plop your blog. I can personally say that I have thoroughly enjoyed using blogger as it is very simple to use and extremely "user friendly". I can post and customize my blog within seconds. Of course it's not as customizable as a blog that you create entirely from scratch but without prior CSS and coding skills it is a bit of a challenge for a first time blogger. I would suggest starting with a free blogging service to really see if this is for you and than moving on up as you gain knowledge and experience.

Take some time to research your options and remember to choose your blogs name wisely. You want something that will be catchy and memorable!

Tomorrow we will explore the essential elements of a blog and setting up your affiliate and adsense accounts.

Have fun =)
