BUILDING YOUR OWN
PROFITABLE WEBSITE OR BLOG
Welcome!
I can't wait to show you how to build a profitable, niche website based on my experience creating Go Baguio! Your Complete Guide to Baguio City, Philippines at www.gobaguio.com
If you search for 'baguio' on Yahoo! or Google, my website appears on the first page of search results. In fact, if you check other keywords, like 'baguio restaurants' or 'baguio hotels,' the inner pages of my website appear on the first page for those keywords also. (more ...)
THIS SITE IS ABSOLUTELY
FREE FOR YOU TO USE
Know before anything else, that this is a how-to-start-earning- internet-dollars guide or what you can call an internet marketing website. You will not be required to purchase anything or join any affiliate program, or pay for any membership to benefit from this site.

YOU NEED VERY LITTLE TECHNICAL
SKILLS TO HAVE A WEBSITE THESE DAYS
As I was telling my mom's senior citizen friends, 'If you can email, you can blog!' Yup it's that easy. With today's drag and drop technology and intuitive interfaces (oh, don't get scared -- that just means features you can easily figure out without the computer exploding), web site design is easy. Besides, the search engines don't care about design -- just unique content.
When I started in mid-2003, I had absolutely no knowledge about building websites, blogging, or Google Adsense. I was 38 years old, knew zero HTML (we used typewriters in college), but I knew that the internet held lots of opportunities for everyone. My story is here at From Zero to Webmaster.
I wanted to be a webmaster before I turned 40 -- it was just one of those things. . . and, since I thought I had no product to sell, I decided I to make a travel website about my hometown. I was hoping to sell ads to the locals to pay for the hosting, or maybe come up with an e-store, but none of those things came to pass.
And then blogs exploded all over the world.
