Ten Rules for Profitable Blog Startups ( by Darren Rowse) is a great place to start. This is a valuable set of 10 blogging tips that will be of interest regardless of whether you are a Pro Blogger or an aspiring Pro Blogger.

1. Keyword research

If you have created a blog and are interested in drawing large amounts of traffic to it to make it a profitable blog, it is absolutely essential that you engage in keyword research. Selecting the proper keywords can be considered the most important step to profitable blogging. there are some easily accessible tools to help you determine the best keywords to use. I have found a key word research tool for you to use to help you out. With Google's AdWords Keyword Tool you can find out how often people search for particular terms and see what may be most relevant to the subject of your blog.

If you spend the time it takes on keyword research, carefully building your list, the rest of your SEO efforts will come together much more smoothly and your results will be immeasurably better.


2. Purchase a domain name and setup hosting account

Domain names are generally not expensive - $10 or so for a typical name.

3. Add content to your site.

This part will depend on the sort of content you are providing. It may well just be text, but you might also have chosen to include photo galleries or video-blogging as your theme or niche. It may also be that you just add content once and leave it, or you may have gone another route and be adding content all the time.

4. Create backlinks

Backlink building is a bit like drug taking in professional sports. Everyone else is doing it so you have to as well. In a perfect world, the best-written content would naturally generate the most incoming links and all my pages would be the highest ranked pages on any given subject.

5. Rinse and repeat

No kidding - once you find a profitable niche and/or approach - do it again. And keep doing it until you find a more profitable approach.
