Ms. Bhaby See of People’s Journal contacted me to share about my blogging experience, I felt honored to be given an opportunity to tell my story.
I wasn’t an internet user yet until about 5 years ago when my cousin Paul introduced me to the World Wide Web, its the only time when i learned about signing up for an email and learning about Friendster. Emailing and Friendster was probably the only reason i would go online. At work it was my assistant or staff who did online research for me. Â Then in 2006, i heard the word blog.
I started blogging a few days after attending the Iblog2 in April 18, 2006 at the University of the Philippines. I came along with Gail who was going to be a speaker at the Iblog2 Summit without any idea what it was about, i just know she was having fun doing it, and i said i wanted to learn, and so she tagged me along, she was also the one who set up my blog for me, thanks to her. I was seated next to Dean Jorge Bocobo, while listening to Rebecca MacKinnon.
Manuel Viloria gave me tips what to right about, coz i had no idea what to do after the blog is set up. He said that i could simply start writing about the places i’ve been to, maybe take some photos and share travel experiences, or anything that interests me so i will never ran out of things to share. I followed his advice.
I also met other bloggers like Abe Olandres, Aileen Apolo, Janet Toral and other iblog speakers from whom i learned from. I believe they make six digit incomes from their blogs. Its them who knows a lot about blogging and probably how to make money through it.
I really am just a simple blogger, i have a lot to learn. But with a little i know, im very much open to share, i did a bit of that during the Iblog3, when i was invited to be one of the speakers. Yeah, during the iblog2 i was one of those in the audience, one year later i was one of the speakers. That’s how much fun i had doing it.
Â
I started out with Wordpress.com’s free blogging service. Then i later on had my own private labeled blog arellevalla.com.Â
To have your own Privately labeled blog, you have to choose a domain name.
Then get a hosting service like Bluehost or Hostgator,
Then download the latest version of Wordpress
Choose a design for your blog.
If you can’t set this all up by yourself, il be glad to be of help. Just contact me at 0918-5199109 or my email at arellevalla (at) gmail (dot) com.
You may also sign up for a free blog services like Wordpress or Blogger.
How do i make money online part-time?
I signed up for the following:
1. Payu2blog
2. Sponsored Reviews
3. Blogsvertize
I write a paragraph or two in a certain topic that they provide and a link to refer a keyword to. The money i make are not tons of money, but with the recession, lay offs and all that, any amount from another channel is a big help.Â
I encourage you to start a blog today, read about blogging online and learn more by attending seminars about it, they’re usually free. My friends and classmates Luzette, Janet, Julie, Willmar, Shane, Mark, Matet, and niece Richie have started blogging too, and now making some extra bucks out of it.
Enjoy and have fun.Â
