I was searching online one day, using the keywords “make money online”, and stumble upon a blog that is owned by a 13 year old (now 15), he was ranking second for the keyword “make money online”. I was impress and read on.
I read thought some of his posts that day, and saw that he has a banner that has “Ultimate Blogging Theme” on it. Curious to see what it was selling. I saw his photo on the sales copy, and he is selling the wordpress theme for bloggers which he is using now. That got me really interested.

For every new bloggers out there, they will tend to use a free theme for their blog, I did that when I first started. Of course there are cons in using the free wordpress themes, but today I will share more on why you should use a customized one rather than a free one.
Customized blog theme looks unique from the other blog themes, because it is the one and only (unless your blog theme designer was not ethical) in the world. You see that everyone is unique in their looks and character, so your blog should also look unique and have it’s own character. Your blog should reflect your personalities, and your blog readers will relate to you more. You will have to communicate with your blog designer and tell him/her what is it you are like and the niche you are in as well.

Google Adwords has been one of the main tool to drive traffic/ generate sales in your website. And it has been known that since the start of Google Adwords, the price of competitive keywords has been increasing, so will this trend continue for years to come?
I will say that the price will continue to increase, as more and more people are using Google Adwords to promote their products or services. The maximum number of PPC ads shown in the search page is 10 only, and if there are 20 companies or persons wanting to advertise on the same keyword, then only the top ten highest bidders can only show on the 1st page of the search page. So do you think the other bidders will increase their bids in order to show their ads to the searchers? Only for those that have a lot of marketing budget, will be able to show their ads.

I will usually give encouragement to my readers, give them facts and truth about the article.
Treating your readers like a friend, will most likely be able to draw them back to you as loyal readers….

When someone makes the decision to begin blogging, the most important thing is the commitment to take the plunge. It’s easy to make the first small steps, but many will not follow through. They may find it’s not as easy as they thought to come up with content, or they may be intimidated by the number of people and amount of information that’s already out there.
The only way to know if this is really what you want to do is to give it an honest attempt. You may find that it’s simply not your “cup of tea”. But like anything in life, if you don’t give yourself a chance, you’ll never have the opportunity to succeed.
