If you want to know how to make money online without spending any money read this article and follow the advice given. Every day there are people deciding they want to make money online and most of them will put a lot of effort and enthusiasm into it, at first. They will read everything they can and buy lots of ebooks, guides and courses on how to make money online. They will spend a lot of money and I bet that 90% of them give up after a few months with their tail between their legs and they tell their friends this Internet thing doesn't work. They will look back and wonder if they were mugs to spend all that money and wonder where it all went wrong.

Well, they weren't mugs and it wasn't exactly that they went wrong but the internet can be a hard nut to crack when you are new to it all. There are billions of pounds, dollars and Yen being made every month online by companies large and small. There are people working in their bedrooms raking in significant amounts of money every day. It can be done but it takes time to learn and it is all too easy to end up buying information and advice that never quite seems to get you where you want to be.

I suggest you start with a different approach. In this way of working you spend nothing at all and you build up slowly and learn how the internet and internet marketing works before you start spending money and not the other way around.

You start out by going to How To Make Money With Hubpages and read the article there about making money with hubpages. Next you sign up for a free account of your own. Click the 'make new page' link and decide on a subject for your first article. Don't worry too much about the first one. Use it as a test run for learning how you go about writing, editing, adding extra features and so on. It is all very straightforward but it may seem a little strange at first like anything new does.

Having got your feet wet setting up and publishing your first page you can start developing things a bit more. There's an article here about How To Make $1000 Per Month On Hubpages which makes interesting reading and it seems perfectly doable to me.

All you have to do is write an interesting article when you have some spare time. At first you may wonder why you haven't made any money but stick with it. Write more articles and over time you will find more visitors reading your pages and more clicks on adverts which make you money.

You get the benefit of being part of an authority site that google rates very well and your articles have every chance of appearing near the top of the search engines and getting traffic to your hubpages. All this costs you nothing at all and you avoid the problems of managing websites and servers and registering domain names. If you want to know how to make money online without spending any money I think this is the best way available right now.

WordPress 3.0 Released

The latest version of WordPress Version 3.0 has been released and you are looking at it. I just upgraded and it all went smoothly and all appears to be working just fine.  The dashboard looks very similar to 2.9.2  but there is a lot more under the hood to be discovered.

The first thing I noticed which is a very welcome improvement is the simple update of multiple plugins which will be a bit of a timesaver for those who have lots of blogs to update when you discover several plugins have been updated since you last looked, which seems to happen to me quite often. It's telling me I have eleven to update here right now!

One welcome improvement is a change to the default worldpress theme. The new one, called Twenty Ten, is a very smart looking theme that looks great yet remains simple and clean.

Problems For Users Of Blogger Websites

There has been a lot of talk recently about some changes that Google seems to be forcing on those people who have been producing blogger blogs and putting adsense on those blogs.

It may seem odd since blogger and adsense are both owned by the big G but there have been a lot of user producing hundreds of blogger blogs with adsense ads on them but little in the way of original content and it seems the powers that be have decided to clean up their system and get rid of these lightweight websites.

Some very well regarded, established blogs have been caught up in this change and while some have simply found their sites de-indexed by G others have had their sites taken down, never to be seen again. If you have put a lot of work into a website over many months that can be very upsetting but ultimately Blogger can do whatever they want. It is after all their main site and they decide on the rules.

This event emphasizes the importance of developing sites you can control by using your own domain name and renting server space to host the sites on. Use a good website backup system to keep copies of your sites and if anything goes wrong, whether it is a hacker taking down your site, your hosting company losing your files or any unforeseen disaster, you will be able to have your site up and running again in a short time.

If you want to develop a long term business with your websites the old ways are the best ways. Your own domain hosted on server space you control, publishing unique content that is of value to your visitors. It may take longer to build sites that make you money but over the long term you should have a business model that continues to work and keeps you on good terms with the search engine gods.
