Planning is important when you do anything. And when it comes to something as important as monetizing your blog, planning becomes even more essential.
It has been a year since I have started blogging. And now, I have decided to monetize my blog.
First, I registered in PayPal. My blogger friends tell me that, first, I should have an account there because that's where most of my profit will be placed. After that, I consulted Mr. Google and read over some articles about monetizing a blog. I have read that registering your own domain will have its advantages especially when you plan to monetize your blog.
I remembered, I attended a seminar together with my blogger church mates. That seminar was really intended for new bloggers like me. Part of the seminar was "How to Start a Blog" portion. The speaker from Online Money Making Experience told us that we should get a domain name and web hosting if we want more technical control of our blog. He also added that blogs in free sites can earn as much as self-hosted blogs, but self-hosted blogs appear to be more credible.
With that, I asked some of my friends where to find a domain registrar and recommended me name.com.
But then, there's a slight problem. I found out that most of the online transactions require cards. I don't have one. And I am not planning to get one. Why? Because I am afraid I'll find myself one day buried in depth, paying for credit card dues. Another reason is that, using a credit card is like using the money you haven’t earned yet.
Maybe I'll just get a debit card. Can you suggest me one? :)

try google adsense.pay is quite handsome.and cashing out is a breeze thru western union,no need for paypal acct. cons:they are very strict regarding placing rival ads on the same site. hope it helps.
