Best Ideas For A Free Blogs For 2015

There are some pretty nice free blogs out there that you can start on, if you are looking to start blogging.  Yet honestly it really depends on the reason why you are blogging in order to determine the best free blogs for you in 2015.  So before I go in to the best free blogs for 2015, let’s talk about WHY you would want to use free blogs. You have a few assignments to accomplish prior to deciding on a blogging platform.

First decide what you are going to blog about.  Free blogs work great if you are blogging about your family, fashion, vacations, self improvement/self hypnosis, health & fitness, language learning, how to travel on a budget, writing style, sports, rescued animals, recipes.

Basically free blogs work great for any topic that you want to talk about.. as long as you do not plan on making money from your blog.

Yes.. I said it.. and I will say it again.. because I know how it is.  You hear about how you can start blogging and making money on any free blogs you choose.  Just get started and one day you are going to wake up and have $10K in the bank from one blog post.  I’m not going to sit here and say it will never happen that way.  I’m just going to say if that is what you are planning, you might as well stop now and go buy a lottery ticket, as you have a better chance of making $10K that way.

Some will disagree with me, and say that’s not true.. and I challenge you to ask them to show you exactly how much money they make blogging on free blogs.

Now you can definitely start on a few of the free blogging platforms that I mention, yet if you really want to get into e-commerce you will eventually have to pull out your credit card, yet that’s not a problem, it confirms you are IN BUSINESS.

The 5 Best Free Blogs To Get Your Ideas To The Web In 2015

I started on free blogs.. funny thing is The On-Line Marketing Angel started on Blogger.. yep..sure did.. and I believe Blogger is the one of the best free blogging sites for 2015. Why do I believe this fact you might ask… well.. like I said I started there, and that blog is still ranking at the #1 spot for the keyword ‘The Online Marketing Angel”.  And if you plan on blogging so that other people can see your stuff.. well it pretty much makes sense to have it on the first page of Google, wouldn’t you agree.

Wix.com

Wix features hundreds of unique and very professional-looking  templates that can easily be customized to keep your blog unique and different from everyone else’s. It’s a pretty cool platform to start on to get your brand out there with class.  Plus if you desire to create an income from your own products, and want to really have a beautiful brand on the internet I highly recommend Wix.  Just keep in mind, it is only a free blogging site up to a point.

 

Tumblr.com

I enjoy Tumblr and actually post lots on my Tumblr site. Tumblr is easily the best of the 10 platforms when it comes to visuals. Images, videos, music. It’s really easy to post and display it on your profile. Tumblr comes with many neat ways to share your content.  I really enjoy Tumblr because it’s fun.. and let’s not forget that people can reblog your content as well.. allowing for your content to go viral so that you can generate more followers. Tumblr is one of the totally free blog sites.

Weebly.com

Weebly has several different themes to get you off to a very modern and personal feel.  Just like Wix, it’s only free up to a point on this platform as well. Remember I told you if you want to build an e-commerce site, or a site that makes money, you will eventually have to pull out the credit card. Weebly has an iPhone app for posting on the go which is awesome.  Plus it connects to your social media platforms with ease.  Weebly is made for the individual that knows nothing about setting up a site and definitely deserves a spot in the top 5.

WordPress.com

WordPress, in my world, is the best free site out there.  Why? Well all of my personally hosted sites, except for my Authority Site, are wordpress blogs.  So if you are really looking to eventually expand your business and explode on the internet  then WordPress is the best place to start.  There is an iPad app for on the go posting, as well as many plug ins that allow you to really build out your site.  The themes for wordpress are endless and powerful.

 The Uncensored Steps To Making Money With Free Blogs

As you read these steps understand I can only give you advice based on my experiences as a blogger that mingles in circles with bloggers that make 5 figures a month EASY!! So you can take my advice or not, it’s really up to you.  If you want to make a few $100 a month, don’t listen.. yet if you want to make $10K per month, then take notes!

  2. Click Here and pick up your Authority Site (I found this special for you where you an try it out for $7 risk free)

The Outrageous Blog Sites That Make Money

October 18, 2014 By Shalonda 12 Comments

blogging

Blog Sites That Make Money Are Everywhere

There are many blog sites that make money.

Yet that is based on the fact that there are so many blogs out there.

The reality is that only about 14% of blogs create an income.. now 14% of  millions is a lot!

blog sites

Notice that the average annual earnings from blogging is $24,086.  Now let’s not trip.. that is more then MANY bring home annually.  Yet was not quite what I was going for when I started this journey of figuring out how to create a blog to make money.

Yet it’s almost like the best kept secret as to how to make money blogging.

Back in the day when blogs first started popping up on the scene.. they were incredibly technical.. Those that could figure it out started an entirely new way of communicating to the market place.

I’ll never forget when I first started blogging..

My first blog site was Blogger which is owned by Google.. this blog is still ranking on the first page of Google under “The OnLine Marketing Angel“.

It even looks kind of … hmmmm..  how can I put this.. “Old School”.. lol.

See back in 2008 I had to learn all kinds of things.. yet one thing really sticks out to me.  As blogger was pretty much the best way to start back then.  It is a free blogging site, which at the time exactly what I needed to start. I would wake up every day excited about what I was going to learn and implement into my blog.  I remained excited until the day I decided to add a little code to my site.  I simply wanted to place an image that one could click and it would take them to another place on the internet.

My first stop was YouTube. Searching for this technique of making a clickable link.  Now today you would probably laugh at me.. as things aren’t nearly as complicated..

It amazes me when some one joins my blog sites and pay’s $7 for the risk free trial to discover how to not only make money blogging yet gets a blog with it, comes to me and complains because they actually have to do something.  I mean I had to do more then get ready to blog, blog sites and go.. NO NO NO.. I had to set that baby up.. I had to feed that baby..  I had to scream and yell and freak out about once every other day..

Back to when I knew decided to adventure outside of my box.  I watched about 6 different videos, and believed that I knew enough to get it done. I went back to my blogger site and started to implement.. and then all of a sudden I clicked something and all my images from my site were gone!  YES GONE!! I can’t tell you what I did, I didn’t know what happened.. All I knew is I must have messed up along the way.

I would love to sit here and tell you I stayed calm and attacked the issue and solved it immediately. Yet that would be a lie!! smile.

I screamed, cried a little, told my daughter to stay out of the office and I stayed up that night until 5am and FIXED IT!! That’s right.. I didn’t give up.. I fixed it.. and with all that time I had put into my blog I still was unable to make money..

Why The Blog Sites You Choose Effect Your Income

I learned really quick that I deserve to own my land on the internet.

I realized that if I was going to put in this kind of time.. Then I should spend that time positioning myself to make money.

So it was at that moment that I invested in my personal blog website on the World Wide Web! My first piece of land is still occupied by me today.. www.ShalondaGordon.net .

It looks way different today then it did back then.. This header below was my first real investment into my brand.

blog sites

 

Now understand even with this site.. I still had to build up lots of authority in order to rank organically (FREE) in the search engines.  And Now I have to get real with you.. as even though I’ve made over $50K in the last 2 years blogging.. I’ve been blogging for 6 years, so you do the math.  So let me just tell you this..and you can take it or leave it.

If you are not willing to accept responsibility for your consistency in blogging.. then the blog sites you choose will not matter.. as if you are not going to blog consistently you might as well forget it.

Yet there is some sunshine to this.. no one said YOU had to do the blogging, you can totally outsource that.. just make sure you make a blog and place it on your blog sites consistently.

The blog sites you choose MATTER.. they matter big.. As the more authority you can gain from a powerful site the better off you will find yourself.  And the faster you will reach an income level.  Yet there is more to it then just the blog sites.  It also depends on the products you are bringing to the market place as well as the proposed funnel you bring a prospect through once they take action on your blog.

So let’s go over this again.. so you have all the successful keys to blog sites that will make money!

The main reason most do not succeed in blogging is because they thing it’s all about blogging, people love what I say.. and they just throw money at me.. Ummmmm NO.. that’s not how this works.

See the process below.. and remember when you snatch your FREE blogging training below you will have access to ask many any questions that you may have.

Ok let’s break this down.

Process To Making Money Blogging:

  1. Know Your Target Market
  2. Have A Product That Solves A Problem Of That Target Market
  3. Blog About The Problems/Solutions/Interest of That Target Market
  4. Offer Something FREE To The Target Market  (Capture The Prospect)
  5. Place The Offer In Front Of The Target Market (Product for sale)
  6. If Prospect Does Not Take Action, The  Proposed Funnel Will Sale Them On Other Paid Items That Fit That Target Market.
  7. Wash And Repeat So That You Have Around 40 Prospects Flowing Through Your Proposed Funnel Daily.

WAIT.. Shalonda, are you telling me I have to do all of this.. how do I set this up..

Exactly you feel like I just opened up a whole new can of worms for you to dig through.

By now you should know me better then that.. yet that is how I felt when I discovered this information from several different sources and put it together.

I simply decided I must offer a product where the proposed funnel is part of the process, that way I do not have to set it up myself.

At this point in my blogging career I have set up a few.  Yet I’m a big believer in surrounding myself with amazing people where I can leverage their strengths.

Welcome..I’m here for you to leverage.  Go ahead leverage my strengths.. it does not bother me at all.

In order to really get a larger view of how all this works.. simply Click Here and invest $7 risk free and see for yourself.  I will coach you through the process, unless you figure it’s too much.. which might just happen.. it takes GUTS to do this thing.. I’m not even going to lie to you.. yet I’ll say the life of a stay at home single mom is WAY better for me then working my butt off and giving my kids craziness cuz I’m tired.  Now that may not be your situation.. you know why you want more.. Click Here and get started.

Keep Smiling,

Shalonda Gordon
