Hi, hi, hi, everybody! I am finally back after such a long holidays! How was your new year holidays? Did you enjoy it? Are you back to working like me now?

Time to get back to improving my niche blogs so that they are good enough to make more money for me next Christmas!

I can’t believe my blogging pal could make so much commissions from merely selling safety and work gloves online last December!

Seeing her success in selling affiliate products online spurs me to work even harder so that I can do as well as she is.

My friend seems to have forgotten her plan of setting up a blog to make money!

Yesterday I chatted with her online, but she didn’t mention anything about making money online. All she talked about was her lousy work, hubby’s cigar smoking habit, mother-in-law’s nagging and other trivial stuffs.

Well, I don’t blame her! Not many people dare to try out something new in this bad economy. Sticking to the same job and working hard so as not to be laid off is still the most practical thing to do.

A friend of mine who is a business plan writer wants to set up a blog to make money.

She told me about her plan last Friday. But after a week, I hear nothing of registering a domain or signing up with a hosting company.

I am wondering whether she will be like another friend of mine who wants to set up a blog, but until now there is no action taken.

Come on, actions speak louder than words, okay?

I am so so looking forward to ushering the 2010 new year. My new year resolution is to keep on paying down my credit card debt without fail.

Another resolution of mine is to make more money from my niche blogs. This means working hard on building links and submitting articles to articles directories to improve the serps of my blogs.

Oh, last but not least, I hope my neighbor’s brother who has been sent to a drug rehab center for more than half year won’t come back in year 2010!

If possible, I hope he will never come back to the village. Even if he has been 100 percent clear of his drug addiction, send him to another place to start his life afresh.

What are your new year resolutions?

I do download free seo software recommended by my blogging pals so as to improve the ranking of all my niche blogs.

You know the importance of doing SEO, right? Better ranking means more traffic driven to your sites and thus increase your ad clicks and sale earnings.

I need more online income simply because there are debt repayments, home and car loan instalments and other expenses that have to be paid.

Besides, it’s bad economy now. It’s better to make more money to save in the savings account during spare time than watching television at home.

I am happy that hubby is following the family budget I set quite well.

If he goes on sticking to the budget, I am sure that we are able to cut down on unnecessary expenses and save more money.

If coupled with making more money from selling slimming pills and baby gifts, I can expect even more money to be saved in the savings account.

It’s my hope that I can reach $3,000 by the end of the year.

Talking about setting up new blogs to make money, my blogging pals have asked me to set up a few blogs for top diet pills and weight loss products.

I know they have already had a dozen lose weight blogs that bring them lots of commissions.

Diet pills and weight loss products are simply hot and sought after even though the economy is bad.

Hopefully all my niche blogs I am building now can generate steady income to help me pay off my credit card debt fast.

I still have high hope that I can make $100 daily online.

Aside from accepting more assignments to do, I am building up 2 dozens of niche blogs to sell Amazon, Click Bank and Commission Junction affiliate products.

To be honest, it’s difficult to build up niche blogs to sell affiliate products or make money from Google AdSense. But once the blogs start getting organic traffic from Google, the products sell! Yup … I have sold a few e-books.

Most people that create web sites do not have the money or the time to host the websites on their web servers themselves. They will have to get a web hosting company to host their web sites. Here are a few tips for picking the best web hosting company.

1. Technical Support. It is important to find a website hosting company that provides excellent technical support – 24 hours a day, 7 days a week service. Finding a cheap website hosting company that can only help you once a week is out of the question. You want a prompt and accurate response to your questions every time you need help.

2. Space. If creating a large web site, or looking to expand a lot in the near future is your plan, then you need more space.

3. Speed. Web users do no have patience with slow-loading websites, so it is crucial for your site to be accessed at a fast speed for your visitors.

4. Database Access. Check if the web hosting company offers the ability to use a MySQL or SQL Server database to store information or authenticate against. Being able to use this database helps make your web site more secure.

5. Downtime. You can not make money if your web site is down most of the time. If your visitors can not access it on a consistent basis, you will lose subscribers, visitors, and potential buyers.

6. Price. You know, “you get what you pay for”. So don’t simply look for the lowest price for web hosting services! You pay little amounts, you get a lot less then you really need to run your site.
