Please dont laugh at me

Have you used the "search" feature here on the forum to look up posts with the keywords that interest you?

There is a wealth of info already here on the forum and it just takes a little searching and a lot of reading. Consider it your education.

It takes a little more effort on your part to use the "search" feature vs. waiting for people to stop by this post and re-post the answers they've already posted in previous discussions.

Since those previous discussions would be VERY helpful to anyone hoping to learn more, get familiar with the "search" feature.

Not to be rude or anything (and I hope it didn't sound that way), but -- seriously -- this question has been answered here MANY times. Just need to dig it all up, read, absorb, and get busy.

Get ahold of some PLR material that pertains to fishing.

Compile the articles into a word doc and convert into PDF.

You now have your own product that you can sell using paypal.

Even a compilation of crab recipes in PDF form would work very nicely.

Since it is a blog you have so many ways available to you which will make you money. Find a particular niche as one stated above. If that was your blog in question in your sig file. I see that you are trying to target crab fishing as your niche. Now what you should do to make money aside from adsense. Go to click bank, click to sell, pay dot com and the other affiliate sites that offer products for you to sell. You then build a simple link to a product relating to your niche. Make a blog about it saying how good this particular product is basically like a simple review. Now anyone targeting that product if you rank high in that niche you will most likely make a sale or two.

Another way would be to offer a opt in form for a particular course on crab fishing. This is to get them to sign up to your newsletter. Then you will have the ability to target them later with any product you want to try to sell to them. You can also add click bank ads to your site that are similar to adsense ads.

Another way is pyrabang offers a similar option as adsense which will help a ton at building you money in the long run. Hope this helps.

Welcome to the Warrior Forum! No one here would laugh at you. We all have to start somewhere and that's what the Warrior Forum is for.

I'm no expert on blogging by any means. But I have found that in whatever you want to do, find someone else who has done it successfully and model them. Modeling is probably THE fastest way to success in whatever you want to do. And with the information explosion, I've found that if you need certain information, it's out there. Somewhere, someone has the information you need on probably ANY topic (including illegal topics -- like how to make a bomb for example ). It may take a little digging, but it's there.

A word to the wise: Pick a niche, a business model and a mentor and stick to it.

Entrepreneurs in general (and Internet marketers specifically) seem to be cursed with "Bright Shiny Object Syndrome", that is jumping from one business or method to the next instead of sticking to ONE business/plan until they succeed. Unfortunately, you waste a lot of time and money doing that AND get extremely frustrated in the process.

Believe me, I'm just as guilty as (probably MORE guilty than) everyone else!

Amy Bass is a Warrior Forum member and successfully paid off all of her debt solely through blogging. She has since created a membership site which teaches you how to make money through niche blogging. I'm not a member of her site, but from what I've seen of her and heard from her over the last several months, I'd recommend it. You can find her site here:

The Niche Blogger - Make Money Blogging

I believe she has a free or $1 trial membership to help you get started.

Good luck!

I want to thank everyone for the input. There were a whole bunch of great ideas.

Now I know that I have a free site right now but I just wanted to get it going and see how it was doing. I dont want to pay for a page if my ideas are crap. It is pretty much a trial site BUT after I read some of the people saying to use it as a main source to push traffic to a site that I have money products on. That is a great idea.

I also think writing an Ebook is a great idea. I could just find some good recipes and write about the best areas to catch crabs in so cal. It wouldn't be to hard and i think it would personally be interesting.

Also, I like the idea of maybe kind of plugging a product that I would like to have to my readers. This way it is useful and i dont feel like I am pushing something they dont need. And I make a little money.

But thank you all for the help. I will try to keep you all posted on how it is going.

Hahaha yeah that was me! I was so into making money that i got lost. I have changed my mind set 100%. Now I am just looking to have fun and then see if I could work in some way to make a little extra cash too.

But your idea is the best so far. But the only thing with that is that it will take a little time to get to make some friends and then i can get them going. But it is a great idea man. Thanks

I think you have great niche, there are loads of people who love fishing and love to buy anything that may possibly make them better at their hobby.

Quick tips: When you write about a particular fish type or crab type, also use the name of the species as a tag on the post. That way, when your blog has more content, if a reader is interested in seeing if you have other posts on the same topic, for example "stingray", they can click on the tag, and see the other posts on that topic.

Also, there are endless possibilities of making products for people who fish. It can be products they use preparing to fish, clothes to wear for fisherman and women, special fishing gear, ways to cook the fish, recipes, anything, just go to your local library to take a look at what people have written about fishing.

Or take a look here:
Amazon.com: fishing

That's some 100.000 products for you to get ideas from!
