I have to let you know that this style of “building a mini network” works very well as long as you don’t get stupid (to borrow a phrase from Vic). In other words, don’t go linking them all together in an effort to share juice. Keep this thing on the “up-n-up” and use each free blog as a way to introduce the more specific topic contained on your main money site. Also, don’t point more than one link from each free platform (Squidoo, Blogspot, etc) to your main money maker.

More tips: Don’t monetize your money site until you notice it level off in the SERPs. I also DO NOT recommend you put adsense on a site that has been “link built” in this manner.

Here is the link to My Starter Blog which is a great platform that works much like WordPress, but is not such a resource hog and is much more secure.

This is a great exercise in learning to stay organized and build multiple sites, produce lots of content, and get many links FAST! You can do it guys!

If you are a beginner to link building and understanding links, please leave your questions below; I really want you to understand this concept.

Remember guys, links can be simplified this way:

GOOD: any link, from any site, with any anchor (like Click Here)
BETTER: link with your specific keyword anchored (like Goose Beer)
There are many more facets to the structure and makeup of a “link” and this is just meant to be a start or foundation.

Here is an example of a “BETTER” link:

If you would like information on how to earn passive income online, go visit my friend Lissie.

Did you catch that? See how that works?

If you want to know how to get links, you may want to stay tuned and watch the upcoming videos. Keep in mind that what I pass along is really just what I have learned from others. The only difference is that I tend to illustrate things in a way that others may not. That’s it.

This info is nothing new. I am no genius. I just work hard… and you should too!

Finally, I want to take a moment to let you guys know just how fortunate I have been over the last couple of years. I have not been scammed or duped into spending thousands of dollars on some stupid “system” for making money online. For some reason only known to God, I was directed straight to some honest people who gave away great info on internet marketing for free. In addition, I was smart enough and dedicated enough to put their advice into action, and now I make healthy money each and every month.

The great folks who have helped me are:
Courtney Tuttle, Internet Marketing. Check out his brutally honest article “Making Money On The Internet”
Griz, Make Money Online for Beginners and Basic Adsense Tips (a MUST read)
Vic at Blogger Unleashed and The Affiliate Academy (I love this guy)

BTW–the links above are pretty good. Here’s why: First off, I did my best to use the right keyword for the site or post. Look at the link to Court’s site as an example. You see I did not link his name, but rather the term “internet marketing.” That is the key word that his site wants to rank for. Thus, it is a good link, (you should remember this when you link to your buddies too)

In addition, this site (blogger illustrated) is about blogging and internet marketing, so that makes the link even better. Unfortunately, this site does not have a lot of authority right now. But these are still really really good links. In fact, they are great links… you are very welcome Court, Griz and Vic… LOL

Remember you guys: Build sites, Add Content, Get Links: that’s it! YOU CAN DO IT!
