The competition is so high, and it’s getting worse every day finding articles to vote for them, people are voting and commenting everywhere at BlogEngage social network. It’s almost 07:30 am here, and I didn’t sleep yet since last night, and all members think they can Blog Engage me?!

Someone is going up so fast!

With my eyes open, I am watching BlogEngage votes, waiting for this moment since 2 weeks back, and they are doing it now! Alison of Win With 1 blog and Brad of The Christian Entrepreneur, they are going up so fast, they are accelerating BlogEngage to the max speed. I am still on the top of voters, and they have to vote for couple of thousands of posts so they can catch me, and you know what? I think we will spend the final night in this year blogging and voting I want to say welcome guys I was waiting for you to show up!

Brian has a great contest on BlogEngage, I am also sponsoring this contests, I am sponsoring three contests this month, I actually don’t know how many contests I am sponsoring this month, so if I am sponsoring your contest then you should email me, tel, remind me about it naahh .. just kidding!

I am not sure if I am going to win any prize yet, but after playing with the voting button for some time, and I realize now the real prize!

What is the real prize?

The real prize is to meet great people, I swear that I want to mention you all guys on this post, and I know that the internet is wide enough to have a room for each of us, but the time is the main challenge of humans!

Congratulations to Alison and Brad, and to me.. For winning the real prize from BlogEngage!

Wth all my respect I wrote this post just for fun!

Finally! and after working for the last two days with out getting enough rest, I was able to develop and shot the new Famous Bloggers blog, FamousBloggers.net, Famous Bloggers is going to be a corporation blog and Social Network for Making Money Online Tips, so, it’s going to be the place to contribute, as I will keep the NewMediaBloggers.com blog for the interviews with the FBC100 members, We are going to be really serious about creating a fun, safe, rewarding, and effective Social Network platform on the new blog for newbies and people who would like to learn how to make money from blogging.

During the last a few days I was checking a few websites that I really like and I follow, and I am dreaming for that day to come true, and we be able to see FamousBloggers.net a really famous blog like those blogs, Mashable.com, WebProNews.com and BloggingTips.com.

But Why we will need another blog?

Actually there will be a big difference between all those blogs that I mentioned and Famousbloggers.net, the main difference is FamousBloggers. net will be covering Making Money Tips and Ideas, and this is the major difference that will keep it unique and one of it’s kind, and also the contributors of FamousBloggers.net are going to concentrate on Making Money online and driving traffic topics and tricks, and they will provide us with some monthly reports about their revenue and how they could pump it and increase by their own experience!

I can say that there is so many ideas to write about them, and they are going to be so useful for all of, of course all this in addition to the personal promotion that everybody will get, and this is one of my main targets from this project.

Famous Bloggers

I have added a few Google AdSense unites to FamousBloggers.net in a try to cover the costs, I am planning to spend all the earnings back to the community in a way or another. So.. I will be developing some good and simple ideas in a try to make everybody happy with that!

Generally speaking, Famous Bloggers Contributors will be asking to Post Once a Month, it must be related to this categories,  SEO, Marketing, Traffic, Design, Affiliate, WordPress, Social Networking and Making Money Online Tips! Plz help us to make it a better place for everyone.

I want to remind you that i need all the help I can get for this project as it will be my main project for the coming days, I still trying to find a good job, but things are not going fast, so I will be busy developing FamousBloggers.net, so show me some promotion!

I was waiting for finishing the main layout of FamousBloggers.net then start call our great contributors to start contributes, I will be creating accounts the new blog, and here is a list of FamousBloggers.net contributors that I am sure all of us are familiar with:

• F. Perez (DiTesco) of iblogzone.com
• Dan Keller of tycoonblogger.com
• Michael Aulia of michaelaulia.com
• Gary Lawood (Lawmacs) of lawmacs.com
• Karthikeyan R. of blogrpro.com
• Blaine Bullman of blaineblogger.com
• Latief of anotherblogger
• Karen of Blazing Minds

Now, after you know who are Famousbloggers.net contributors, you can imagine what this group can do if they blog together in one blog, and what is the benefits of blogging together, I am so excited to see the results, aren’t you? If you are interested to join our great contributors, don’t hesitate to contact me, and so we can start work together!

If you’re new to blogging and yet want to start quickly, blogging is also a great way to make money, and besides being a good communication tool, there are several business models you can try for maximum results in a short time. This article discussed the three most popular methods. So.. Let’s talk about these three methods one by one!

The first method:

Is get paid to blog. Using this method, you create your blog and add a few good articles to it. Then you sign-up with paid blogging networks like Pay Per Post or Review Me and see what “opportunities” are available. These networks are filled with advertisers looking for blogger who can help them spread the word, and they are willing to pay. Accept the opportunity, write about it on your blog, and you get paid.

The second method:

Is AdSense WordPress blogs and it requires a little more technical know-how. You need to build a WordPress blog on a specific niche topic, and start writing some good content on it. At the same time, try to get links from other blogs by leaving comment on the blogs or by doing a link exchange with the blogger. The objective is to get more traffic who will click on your AdSense ads and make you money.

The third and most sophisticated method:

Is affiliate marketing with WordPress blogs. Again, you set-up a good WordPress blog but with this model the amount of content you publish is not as important as the “selling quality” of the content. Each post you write must pre-sell the web visitor and convince him to click on your affiliate links. When the visitor makes a purchase online after that, you get credited for the sale and earn commissions.

Ultimately, which model you choose depends on how much time and resources you can dedicate to creating and managing your blogs. Your best bet is to choose a low-investment option at first. When you get the hang of it, you can venture into other blogging models as well.

If you’re serious about making money from your blog, I strongly  recommend that you signup for my video tutorials:

As a member you’ll get tons of step-by-step video tutorials on how to use WordPress, web 2.0  technology, search engine optimization, making money from Google AdSense and affiliate marketing, and so much more.

I assume that some of us had participated on a few contests from all these contests running online on lots of blogs these days, one of the most reasons for contest organizers is to promote their blogs or (service and products), but after all it’s about gaining more traffic and new visitors!

Depending on contest types, Contest Organizers trying all the time to find the best voting system for their contests, there is some good WordPress plugins that do the job, and also a few websites that offers you different voting systems with different options and layouts, probably you will find what you need or you can try to customize your voting system some how to fit your contest needs.

I want to ask you for your opinion about this voting issue, by your experience or just by logic..

[poll id="2"]

Which way is better?

And if you are against one of these ways, I will appreciate if you tell us why?

I have participated on Ricky‘s contest @ricky709, this contest is the first one on Techgenuine. You will get a chance to win a custom logo/header image for your blog or website. The winner will have the choice to decide the logo for him/her.

So, this short post is to tell you about the contest, and encourage my bloggers friends to organize more active contests like this one, it’s fun and great way to get to know more people through blogging.

The logo will be designed according to his/her requirements by a professional designer called Honey Singh who has a vast experience in designing custom logo and banners and forum siggies. Visit his website at: http://hdthedesigner.co.cc/

I would like to invite you to join the contest, and maybe you could win a great custom logo or banner design for your blog or website!

It’s always a good idea to get a link from a high page rank website like Mahalo Answers which has a page rank of 7. so just think about what else you can do with Mahalo Pages, you can create a page for anything in a few minutes, and the result are great!

So here is what I did, I have created a new page for My Life Thinking blog on Mahalo Answers pages. I call it My Life Thinking, basically I can add as many sections to this page, anybody else also can edit the page, I would love if you do so, maybe you can link to a related important topic of yours.

But How to Earn from Mahalo Pages?

Yeah.. I was thinking about that, and I knew that Mahalo Answers will share revenue with me, but what I have understand is that I should promote my page  on Mahalo, so here I am posting about it, telling you all about it so you can help me on this one! so Tweet it and share is on your blog is possiable!

I was hearing (not watching) this video from Mahalo Tutorials while I am writing this post, I can tell that this video is amazing, it’s from Lon the Editorial Director of Mahalo.com.

Mahalo Answers is going to share revenue of your pages, I will update you about the results when there is something new, just want you to know that I have earned already more than $60 from Mahalo Answers.
