Hello David, Maybe this article will help as a starting point How To Build Links To Your Blog - Case Study Regards Brett

The challenge is similar to "How do I get a credit card with no credit". The authoritative blogs that can drive traffic you seek won't accept posts from just anybody (especially somebody without a real following). While I am sure it isn't what you want to hear the first question needs to be "How do I make connections / friends in my niche" That's easy. Same as a new job or high school - be authentic, provide value, be helpful, help them get ahead (share their stuff, make meaningful comments). Here is a great guide on the subject - http://www.viperchill.com/guest-blogging/ (providing you that link is an example of me showing a real pro some "love". I don't expect anything from him in return but I know there is a good chance that if I help him enough in enough way it might be enough to get a mention in some way or possibly a relationship, who knows) This same thing worked for my just last week. I put a link to Ana with http://www.trafficgenerationcafe.com/ on the homepage of my site and she mentioned me (AND LINKED TO MY SITE) Thanks Ana! in a post she wrote last week, sorry I don't have it in front of me. Sorry for the long message. Hopefully it was helpful. Have a great weekend! Matthew

The fallacy of most bloggers that's why they always fail to earn what they want is because they treat blogs as something JUST to earn money out from it, forgetting its original purpose to share their thoughts and make others be inspired as to what they are posting. That is the first step and the most vital in earning through blog. Keep away those figures for now, think of something that will make people happy regardless of what you will earn and you will just realize that money is PASSIVELY coming unto you. Remember that there are quite a thousand of bloggers online that doesn't aim to earn money but their blogs are seriously huge in traffic, what do they have? love for what they are doing, and that is something that you SHOULD have first before you think of moneytizing it. Because if you think to moneytize it on an early stage, you'll just get disappointed and you will tend to rush things and in the end do it in a bad way, but try to consider loving it first regardless of the money and you will soon realize how many audience you;ve build up, with that, you will just earn money like you didn;t think about it. There's no such thing as earning through blog at a FAST rate, I don't believe on that. Have you read lots of articles about ways to earn through blog? You can see a generic way over there which is content right? Whenever an expert writes articles about earning through blog, you will always see the very famous "Content", because that;s the most important thing, and just so you know, content will never be great without love from doing it.
