Stay At Home Moms Making Money Online Part 1 Of 3

As a stay at home mom, there are many opportunities to make money on the Internet. And no, you don’t need to spend 12 hours a day at the computer to do it. Of course, you may not get rich if you commit just an hour or so per day to your online business, but you can certainly make $20 to $500 per month without spending any of your own money.

The first step is to determine a topic (called niche) that you are interested in. Almost everything that you do online will be related to this niche, so make sure it is a topic that you enjoy. Many stay at home moms choose niches that involve children in some way. There are many opportunities available that cater to this specialized market.

The easiest (and cheapest) way to get started is to register for a free blog. Blogger, owned by Google, is one of the best known, but you can find hundreds of them if you do a search. Select a name that is related to the niche that you chose above. Put some thought into the name of your site. It should be something catchy or memorable that is closely related to what your blog is about.

Now you have to add some information to your blog. If you enjoy writing and have the time, write 3 to 5 informative articles related to your niche. Articles that tell people how to do something or provide some useful information are always very popular. If your site is about infants and toddlers, you can write articles on preventing diaper rash, potty training, finding the perfect baby sitter, etc.

If your children are young, you may not have a great deal of time to write your own information. In that case, go to the article directory where you saw this information and do a search on that site for articles related to your niche. This is perfectly legal. However, when publishing someone else’s article, you must add the author’s resource information along with any links that they include in the article. Add each article into your site as a separate post. You don’t have to do all of these things at once. Spread them out over several days or a week.
In parts 2 and 3 of this series, I will cover how to make money with your blog.
