I think We Got That Right about Making Money Online

I couldn't resist.  Damaria made an excellent point, and this is one that you should take heed of when you are writing a blog, be it for fun or for money, or rather a lot of money ( got you attention yet?) See there is one key point that I had put out about making money online, and many thanks to Damaria, for pushing that point.

1. Content matters. Getting people to your site is one thing. But what do they do when they get there? Do they find what they were looking for? Do you answer their questions before they even ask? Are you building a relationship with them? Will they come back? Do they TRUST YOU ENOUGH TO GIVE YOU THEIR CREDIT CARD/PAYPAL DETAILS?



Because if you can't get to the last, forget getting rich, whether quickly or slowly :-)



It is all about content, or rather building that content that people can trust.  We all can be useful and help others, but if we can't communicate it in a useful way, well as writers well are not as useful as we might think!  Money comes to those who work at it.

Yes We'd all love a lot of money on the Internet, but I am going out on a limb here, and will say that if you do not continue to work at it, you will not see long term success.  My readers are smart, and they will comment or send emails, and they all need great content to keep on coming back. 

So in essence, when does the money come?  When you spend more time writing and writing and writing, a add a bit of linking.
She said it right, content matters.  Yes it does.  I can say if the content is poor, (I am not only talking about editing and other things of that nature, but of what you are telling me.)  then I am mroe likely not to do something you need me to do.
