I want to be a blogger, but I can NOT write everyday . . .

One of my frequent readers of Telecommuting Millionaire? wrote to me about his aspirations for building their blog.  It was a great concept and I encouraged him to do the work of setting up and marketing his blog.  But he had one concern, one problem -- he realized that the most successful blogs have regular content added to it every other day, or every day or several times a day.  He wants his blog to be wildly successful (which I think it will be), but he said, "I want to blog, but I can not write everyday . . ." 

Which is understandable, he is living a full life.  Besides this idea to begin a blog, he holds a full-time job, he has a houseful of kids, he has other family obligations -- and I realized there must be resources out there that can help my fellow bloggers be much more successful than I am at this blogging business.

Lo and behold, I found the resources that can help my fellow bloggers be more consistent in their blogging.   If you have the money to pay people to create great content then you should contact content warehouses.

What are content warehouses?  Well, they are places where writers are registered to create great custom content for you at a price.  I've found a couple of content warehouses through my many twitter followers/friends.  You should check them out!

Constant Content 
@constantcontent (twitter)
www.constant-content.com/about (Website)
Want to develop a website, but don't have the time to write?

Content Runner 
@contentrunner (twitter)
www.contentrunner.com (Website)
A marketplace that brings those in need of content with those who generate content.

Unfortunately, I haven't used these services myself due to my lack of funds, my love of writing and my lack of concern with consistently updating my blog on a regular schedule (I know, I know, shame on me).  These two services look very good and I'm sure they would be very helpful in getting the ball rolling for those who want to start a blog, but just don't have the time to do it right all by themselves.

And for those who have been thinking of starting a blog, I say DO IT like yesterday!  Because as you know, I have always wanted to be in the inner circle of power and influential people . . . get to work!

Site Review: Free Money Finance

Oh my, what can I say about this website? I am simply in LOVE with FMF (Free Money Finance)! He is my blogging idol. 

I would like my blog to grow up and be FMF one day.  If you really want the low-down on your personal financial situation, I would suggest that you read this blog.  I've followed it since I discovered it in 2008 and it's always good.  Good information, good writing and good advice.

All his advise has helped me, but of particular great advice to be is his series:

How to Get Your Blog to 100,000 Visitors and Beyond

If you are a blogger wishing to gain a large following, this article series will truly help you.  I know it helped me.

However, I love FMF's personal finance articles & series:

Automatic Millionaire Series

The Bible and Money Series

Saving Series

I think what I really like about this blog is the hard work FMF puts into the blog's archive to make it easy to find any topic dealing with finance.  Also, I appreciate the no nonsense, easy reading style the author created.  

Often at the end of his posts, he gives a short of list of other posts that are on the same topic and that the reader may be interested in.  I'm thinking of adopting that technique in Telecommuting Millionaire? Blog because I find this so very helpful.

Visit Free Money Finance.  You will not be sorry.

The 7 Secrets of the Prolific Writer

Prolific =  definition 1: the person that writes so much stuff you swear they are writing in their sleep; have a staff 12 robot-typist with speeds of 100 words per minute; and three round-the-clock editors that push them mercilessly.

Prolific =  definition 2: Someone who sat in a sound-proof bubble for 25 years, with nothing but a computer and unlimited disk space and just came out and published all their stuff . . . yesterday.

How in the hell, do these people get all this stuff published, written, and edited?  I'm following writers and bloggers and they just seem to pour out article after article, book after book, blog post after blog post -- endlessly.

Don't these people have lives?

Don't their kids need them for something?

Do their dogs have bladders?

Do their spouses demand sex only once a year?

Does something, anything in life get in their way?

That's what I asked all the time, until I discovered what prolific writers do. Once I fell upon their little secrets, it all became clear and easier.  Okay, I'm lying, not easier but at least I'm not so confused -- how about that?

7 Habits of a Prolific Writer

1.  A Prolific Writer takes their work with them where ever they go.  
Not that I'm calling myself a truly prolific writer -- but, I carry Steno Pads with me everywhere.  I buy steno pads and pens by the case and I have them in every bag and in every car that I use. If a stray idea, or even a full article, pops in my head I stop what I'm doing and write it down.  For those pesky times that I can't stop and write things down -- I also have an app on my iPhone that records voice.  I can't tell you how many audio notes to myself I have on this thing.  I also make it a habit type them up as soon as I'm near a computer.  Remember, you haven't the captured the idea until it's set on paper.

2.  A Prolific Writer lives for writing.
Everything you do, see and think about can be used in a blog post, article or book. The ideas are all around you, just waiting for you to capitalize on them. All you need to do is open your eyes to them, make sure you have pad and pen ready (or, audio device ready) to record your observations.

3.  A Prolific Writer grabs ideas, and doesn't let go. 
If a stray idea comes to you, even while you are writing about another topic, write that stray idea down!  Capture it.  Don't say to yourself, "I'll have to remember that." No. Make that idea permanently yours. Remember, you haven't the captured the idea until it's set on paper. 

4.  A Prolific Writer does not second guess the audience. 
Don't second guess your audience.  How many times have you thought of a great topic to write about than then let Ole Mr. Doubt creep in:  "Nah, no one will want to read about that!" (or)  "My audience doesn't care about this." (or, even)  "This would be probably over their head."  You know what?  That's for your audience to know and you to find out.  Offer your idea to your audience, you never know how they'll receive it.  You might just be pleasantly surprised.

5. A Prolific Writer does not over-think it.
You have an idea or a topic to write about -- don't sit and think about it.  Don't try to plan out what you are going to write about.  Don't dream about it.  Don't meditate on it.  Don't play with it.  Write about it.  Just get the ideas out of your head and down on paper - you can edit it later.  Planning is great sometimes, but we can make things bigger and more complicated than they need to be if we over-think the issue.

6.  A Prolific Writer does not aspire toward perfection.
And I'm tell you to stop looking for perfection.  So many times in working with my fellow writers, I hear excuses like: "Just a little more research on this part." (or)  "The words don't flow on that part, I need to rewrite it." (or, even)  "I think someone else just wrote about this particular topic on their blog yesterday, I've got to make mine better or longer or shorter."  Stop.  Perfection can get in your way of success.  Let go of perfection and just do it.

7.  A Prolific Writer breaks things up into smaller pieces.
You know what looks like prolific writing -- several articles.  True, a long article with exploring several points is pretty impressive.  But seven or eight articles on a topic makes the reader think that the author of said articles really knows the ends-and-outs of the topic, don't you think?  Well, prolific writers have figured this out and tend to create smaller pieces out of a larger body of work.  For instances, I could have easily broken up this blog into seven (7) blog posts, examining the 7 Habits of Prolific Writers more deeply.  I would have given my audience seven articles on writing instead of one.  You would have thought I spent weeks on these articles and I really knew my subject well.  But in fact, all I would have done was taken this post and added examples of authors exercising each of these theories.

Dog-gone it, that's what I should have done.  Guess I'm not a Prolific Writer yet.

Well, I hope you aspiring professional writers and bloggers take this advice and flourish.  You have to succeed, I've always wanted powerful and influential friends  -- and I'm counting on you to become one of those.

Blogging for Dollars: 7 Reasons Why Professional Bloggers are Successful

In the last post about blogging: Blogging for Dollars: Top 7 Places to Look for Blogging Jobs
we talked about the second way one could blog for money.  This post will explore Way 1: Beginning Your Own Blog.

To start your own blog and begin blogging you are in luck because there is a lot of information out there on how to start a blog, maintain it, monetize it, promote it and ultimately make money doing it. Do you realize that blogs with 100,000 or more unique visitors a month earn an average of $75,000 annually?  Eighteen percent of all bloggers in the blogoshere are part-time or full-time professional (earning an income) bloggers.

As we know, success first starts with "success in mind." To be a successful blogger, one has to become mentally prepared to establish success in their life.  Many people start a blog (present company included) and often fail at growing their blog because they don't have the right mind-set at the beginning of their journey.

The ones that do succeed, seem to be able to gleen information from the people that did it right.  They carefully emulate successful people's thought patterns and habits, tweek them to fit their personality and business model, and then make these new habits their own.

After much struggle with creating, writing and maintaining my own blog, I thought I would help you figure out how the professionals of the blogsphere got that way and the very things that they did to make them successful at it.

In my study of professional bloggers, I found 7 things that all successful bloggers do:


1.  Find a topic/subject/cause to love

You don't just love the topic, this is a topic that dominates your life.  You can not get enough of this topic.  You read about it, you think about it, you do it, you talk to your friends about it (until they are sick of you and it), you constantly research it, and you want to learn more and more about it.  A good blogger, will immerse themselves in their beloved topic, so it's very important that this topic is something you will not get tired of exploring 6 months down the line.  You will be wedded to this topic, so make sure you can live with it for better or worse.


2.  Have patience and have a need to share

You can't be stingy with what you learn.  In fact, you must have a driving need to share what you have learned. You're goal should be on the grand scale of sharing.  It should look something like: I want to educate 1,000,000 people on "following their dreams" in the next 6 months!  I want to touch and change the lives of 100 people in the next 30 days. Well, to do that you have to share and educate and be present for your audience.  But that is going to take time, and effort, and openness to others.

3.  Build a large audience for your blog  

You have the topic you love and the patience to share it with everyone you meet.  Cool.  You know what would really be cool?  Getting a lot of people to realize that you love this topic and will talk about this topic -- even before you start your blog.  You know how to do that?  Twitter and Facebook.

Create a Facebook Page about your topic and promote the hell out of it.  Get people active on your page talking about the topic.  Or, create a Twitter Account and only talk about your topic.  Develop a large audience on Twitter that simply love talking about your topic.  What you are essentially doing is gathering people of the same interests, you are developing an "audience."  When you then establish your blog, you will have a ready-made audience that trusts you and your opinion and will want to read your posts on said topic!  Having a large audience through social media can really help you get your blog growing quickly.

What is a large audience?  On Facebook having over 250 likes and Twitter having over 1,000 followers is a good start.  But let's face it the more followers you have on both social media sites the better.  We'll elaborate on techniques for gaining followers on social media sites in another blog post.

4.  Commit to Time 

It takes time to create a successful blog. Go to the calendar right now and put a big X 90 days from today. If you started your blog today -- 90 days is a realistic length of time -- you must commit to working on your blog daily for 90 days to see any gains. What are you committing to? Putting up posts regularly.  Replying to comments.  Designing and configuring features. Generally making your blog better each day.  Most bloggers don't make it past the 3 month mark into their blogging venture.  The successful bloggers commit to working on your blog every day until they reach that X on the 90th day.  By the time they reach that X, they have establish a habit of blogging. Which means they will continue working on their blog daily, gaining the ground to success.

Time commitment is essential to success, did you know that 13% of all bloggers (63% of the top professional bloggers) blog more than 10 hours per week or 1.5 hours per day (90 minutes per day).  Wow, that 90 number seems to keep popping up!  I think it really means something.

So, let's commit to 90 minutes per day for 90 days to gain blogging success!

5.  Commit to Consistency

The more consistent the posts, the more profit bloggers gain.  Did you know that?  You didn't?  Well, here's something else: professional full-time bloggers update their blog at least 3 times per day.  Okay, that's a lot of work and I'm not expecting a new blog writer to be able to update a blog 3 times per day and keep their day job.  But, gradually growing your writing techniques to consistently publish one post per day will make your audience grow and thus your earnings will grow as well.

This is easy to do if you keep your blog posts short (300 to 500 words) but packed full of information. I tend to write long blog posts (this post is an example).  If you are like me and put much blood, sweat and tears in each post -- creating long articles that average 1,000 words or more -- committing to 3 or 4 posts a week at regular/predictable intervals is a good starting point.

Just for reference, The top bloggers (like Mashable, TechCrunch, etc.) post at least every 24 hours.  Also note that 27% of the top bloggers post at least once week.  However, if you want to run with the "big dogs" then you should know, the top 100 bloggers post 20+ post per day.  The top 500 bloggers post 12 posts per day.  So, it's pretty clear -- good quality posts and more of them on a consistent basis is the key to gaining a large, devoted audience.


6.  Your List of Fans/Readers/Followers is Key

Gather contact information, create a list of people that have visited your blog so you can promote to those people again! Your list of contacts, of people who are interested in your topic is your GOLDEN EGG.  Find a way to gather and capture information from your visitors.  Compile and store the list like it is a golden treasure, because it is! That list will be your way to riches.  How do you get this information from readers? Well, many bloggers use free e-books, free e-newsletters, free gifts or contests entries in exchange for names, e-mails and addresses of visitors.

The beautiful thing about these lists you compile is, you can use them over and over again to promote future blog posts, to promote books and other materials you create around your blog.  There are so many advantages to list building, it requires its own blog post to give it its full due.  Don't worry, I'm on it -- look for a blog post on the topic soon.

7.  Promotion, promotion, promotion 

There are so many ways to promote your blog and part of creating and maintaining a blog is promoting it.  There is so much good advice out there on promoting your blog -- seriously, all you need to do is take three or four ideas and consistently do them.  If you are consistent in your promotional efforts (remember 90 minutes each day for 90 days) you will see your blog grow by leaps and bounds.  Currently, social media is a big promotional tool for blogs, 93% of professional bloggers use Twitter and Facebook and have over 1,000 followers on these sites to help promote their blog.

An Extra Tip Because I Like You:

8.  Remain Open to Other Forms of Media

Don't get stuck in the blogosphere.  Be open to using other media and digital formats to deliver your ideas and information.  Look into Google+ Hangouts, Guest Blogging, Podcasts, Online Radio Shows, YouTube.  By adding other formats to deliver your information and educate new audiences you can gain a whole new set of people to add to your blogging audience and grow even bigger.   Don't settle of just blogging, the Internet is big.  Try new things, you might just like it.


Well, that's it.  If you are willing to embrace the habits of professional bloggers your blogging endeavors will be a success in no time! Which is really good for me because I need you to be very successful people, because I'm telling you -- I need powerful and influential friends.

Blogging for Dollars: Top 7 Places to Look for a Blogging Job

Can you make money blogging?

Well, in a simple answer YES, of course you can.  People do it every day.  Even I make a little (very little) money blogging here at Telecommuting Millionaire?

The good news is: there are two ways you can make money blogging.  Way Number 1: Begin your own blog and monetize (feature ads and affiliate links) on your blog.   Way Number 2: Find a job writing for an established blog.



Way Number 2:

To find a job writing for established blogs, you should first have some experience blogging.  How do you gain experience blogging?  Volunteer to blog for a charity or organization that you are currently a part of, they always need good content and free help managing a blog.  Once you'd worked on their blog and can show that your work has helped grow their audience a bit, you have viable "experience" that you can show an employer of bloggers.  Or, you can start your own hobby blog, where the goal is develop an audience and show off your writing and promotion skills.  Once you are satisfied with your skills and have something to show "the man" check out these places that list blogging jobs.

Places to go to find blogging jobs:

There are more places, but these are the best in my opinion and I wouldn't want to overload you.  Perhaps, if you are very, very good, I will update this post with more places to find blogging jobs at a later date.  How's that?

Meanwhile look for more articles on blogging and making money in the upcoming days. And for pity's sake, please take advantage of the resources I give you in my blog.  I want you to become very, very successful -- because after all, I've always wanted power and influential friends and I'm counting on you to be those friends!

Using Phone Conversations to Find Great Article/Blog Post Ideas

Many new bloggers ask me, where I get my ideas for blog posts.  It makes me scratch my head, because I seem to find blog post ideas everywhere.  I'm bombarded with blog post ideas every single day and I can't write them down quickly enough.

For instance, I have a friend that calls me and talks and talks and talks. We could be on the phone for two to three hours at a time. One time we were on the phone eight hours -- man, that's like . . . work!

No, she's not being obnoxious or needy.  And no, our conversations are not solving world hunger or the Middle East Crisis.   But get this, she calls me to flesh out her thoughts. She's starting a business and she really needs someone to throw out ideas and then carefully, thoroughly flesh out the details before taking action.

 I understand, though I don't like to be on the phone that long, I understand.

Yeah, yeah, I hear you say:  That's crazy, that's a huge waste of time.  But really, it's not -- or maybe, I've made sure it's not a waste of time. In my point of view, no conversation is a waste of time -- if you are a writer.

You see, those long conversations I have with my friend cover a wide range of topics. While she is mulling over situations, problems and obstacles. I'm finding solutions, insights and processes that held her and can possibly help all of you, my lovely Telecommuting Millionaire? readers.

As a writer, I've learn to jot all this stuff down. No. Not my friend's problems or details of her life, but the THEMES and IDEAS and SOLUTIONS . . . INSIGHTS and PLANS that we cover within the conversation.

These long talking sessions can be organized into very helpful and insightful pieces that could be published in a blog, or in a magazine article, or an op-ed piece.

So, don't let phone conversations just dissipate into the air. Don't hang up the phone and simply move on to something else. While you are on the phone, jot down ideas and insights that come to you through conversation.  Those ideas could just be your ticket to a more lucrative writing career!

OK, you are going to hate me . . .

Please, if you are a subscriber to my blog. Don't unsubscribe me in the next 48 hours -- because . . . well, you are going to hate me.

See, I'm going to play catch up.

Though I haven't posted in a while . . . I didn't stop writing. In fact, I have over 6 months worth of stuff that I wrote and didn't post.

Yeah, sue me. I was making money.

Anyway, it's time to post all those things up and you'll probably get lots of updated e-mail notices saying Telecommuting Millionaire? has a new post up - like every few minutes. And you'll probably get really mad at me.

Don't.

Just ignore me for the next couple of days, ok?

Thanks, you're a peach!

ALMOST a Top 100 Make Money Online Blog!

Have you visited 45n5.com yet? I had this guy on my list of websites to review when low and behold, I got the notice that I am 152 on this list of Top 100 Make Money Online Blogs.

Now for the review of this site:
If you are a blogger (or thinking about blogging) and you have not read at least 10 posts at 45n5.com then you are woefully behind dear students.

There is so much information here about earning money online (even lists opportunties that do not require blogging or owning a website) that it just makes me dizzy and want to kick my butt at the same time. I have missed out on so much!

Here are some of my favorite and great money making posts from this site:

Auction Ads and the New Deal

As I've stated before, I've been investigating all kinds of "make money" opportunities in my endeavor to successfully meet my "challenge." Well, this is the first of many posts on "creating cash" that I hope you will enjoy.

Today, I came across a new deal with AuctionAds. Anyone who signs up will receive $25.00 automatically in their account. Wow, you might say, that's $25.00 free dollars for signing up and putting Auction ads on my blog. Sweet! Well yeah and no.

Yeah, they are giving out free dough, but they don't pay out until you amass $50.00 worth of people who have clicked over to E-Bay and successfully won the auction -- so you still have to have the lots of traffic to amass $25.00 worth of advertising revenue. Which I don't have right now. But what the hay, that shouldn't stop me from telling you guys about it, right?

So, for all you crazy kids out there with over 300 visits per day, that can amass $25.00 worth a revenue in a few short weeks, if not days. Go for it! As you can see, I'm going for it too.

Try AuctionAds

Why Are You Doing This?

This online journal is a grand experiment -- an experiment to see if the advice given in blogs, books, magazines, etc. is really true. Yes, I am telling you, admitting to you, and confessing to you that this blog is a money-making venture. But, I hope it is a money-making venture that can be repeated by you, the reader. My intent: to give you a blow-by-blow account of what I am doing to become wealthy, so you too can also become wealthy -- just by watching and learning from my efforts, mistakes and successes.

[Two fingers up, hand over my heart in true girl-scout oath position:]

• I will try very hard to make this website easy-reading.
• I promise to try to not get in your (or my) way to success.
• I will do this all from my home office.
• I pledge to help you (the reader) by making the stupid and often money-sapping mistakes all wealth-seekers tend to make.
• My goal is to ultimately give you -- through my sacrifices -- a “heads up” to a more successful you.
