If you want to start a blog but the thought of setting up your own self hosted wordpress blog fills you with dread then starting your own social network could be a great alternative. Inside every social network platform is an opportunity to add blog posts and at least now it won’t just be you adding blog posts but all your members too.

This is a little “out of the box” thinking but it really is true – you will still be making money blogging just in a different way using your social network.

I have written a free report on how to start and profit from a social network that you can download here

If you have ever wanted to run a membership site or if you would prefer a site where your members can connect then SocialGo might be a great resource for you.

If you are looking for some great niches that will help you to make money blogging then I have 3 great ones to recommend. The thing to remember is that there may already been hundreds of other people offering this already but you need to make yourself different to appeal online.

How do you know you will be great at running a recipe blog? Well if you have a passion for cooking and sharing recipes with friends and family then it is very possible that you will enjoy running a recipe blog.  You can learn how to profit from your own receipe blog here

Start a Craft Blog:

Maybe you are more of a creative lover and a craft blog might be more suitable for you. Whether you love quilting, painting, woodwork or cross stitch these are all blogs that are able to profit online. You get to share your love of creating crafts with other people who love it too and promote affiliate products they can buy. To find out more about starting a craft blog click here.

Start a Review Blog:

People love reviews, they want to know what other people think about a product before they take the time to buy it and so review blogs do really well online. Always remember to niche to a particular industry and there is nothing to stop you from having review blogs in different niches before settling on one or two that work best for you.

So there are three blogs that you can start immediately and can help you to make money blogging. Always focus on how you will make yourself different from the other blogs doing the same thing. Take the time to look for the most poplar blogs in these areas to see what they offer and how you can make it different.

Now that 2010 is here you have another 12 months to make a difference to your life and if you want to focus on how to make money blogging then you need to set your plans down, create your goals and focus on this ONE objective until you achieve it.

Take a look at 2009 and make a note of what you did well, what you could have done differently and what you need to do to ensure you learn from those lessons and make this year different.

I recently took part in a seminar with Brian Tracy which focused on reinventing yourself in 2010 and he said something that was very simple about  financial success. It is already out there in many other books.  You may have read it before and maybe even heard it but the question is are you using it?

There are times when we face our biggest challenges and for the most part those times of sheer desperation and panic can be the greatest motivators of all to get our moving and into action. A great example of that is Rita Cass, a mother in a desperate situation.

Rita felt ill every time another bill hit her kitchen table.

New baby…
Lost job…
No income…
Overdue bills…
Exhausted, couldn’t sleep…

Yes, that’s a pretty desperate situation. Rita could have given up.

Writing your article summary (this video is helpful although they really should have edited it a little bit, quite a bit of uhming!)

When you watch this video on article marketing you can also relate it to blog posts too – you can use the same ideas to create blog posts for yourself. Of course the ideal is that you write an article, add it to your blog and send a version out to the article directories, saving you time in having to keep writing content.
