Blogging is really hot right now, there is no denying it. You can make a significant income with blogs if you have the right focus and a little bit of the right training. We can show you how to get started.

First off, you need a compelling topic. You might be the foremost expert on the mating habits of fruit flies, but that probably won't get you anywhere blogging-wise. So, you must pick a topic where there is a lot of action and go there. Don't worry about competition at this stage. Having a lot of competition means one thing, that there is money to be made and you should be making it.

Once you select a hot topic (mine is weight loss, a perennial favorite), you are ready to get started. Install your WordPress blog and go find a nice niche related theme. My favorite niche is weight loss so I simply look for free WordPress themes related to losing weight. I have no problem giving authors credit so I leave the credits on the theme. Activate the theme and you are ready to go. I have tons of articles on weight loss because I have written extensively on the topic. I simply post these articles to my new blog and it is ready to make money.

Make money? How? There are many ways to make money with your blog. The quickest and simplest way is to get an AdSense account with Google. AdSense is a program that displays advertisements that are relevant to the content on your blog. Whenever a person reading your blog clicks on one of the ads, you get paid. If you listened to my advice above, clicks in hot niches bring a nice income.
