Making money blogging is not all about advertising or affiliate marketing. If you can sell your own product or have the resell rights of an existing product, you start making much more money.

Did you know that the next Google PageRank update will be in March 2009? Be proactive, and prepare your blog the next round. Here are a few easy techniques you can apply during March to get the highest Google PageRank:

• Add a Google Sitemap to your blog if you haven’t done before
• Do Offsite and Onsite SEO For your blog

Since 2008 August, I work at home as a full time problogger. Until today I solely relied on the income generated from SearchForBlogging.com. However, it was a bit risky. A few months ago I took a decision to diversify and manage the risk by chasing profitable Internet business opportunities. Luckily I met an experienced SEO expert, and we decided to open a SEO tools shop together.

Some people say the blogging is dead, and we are living in the era of microblogging. Actually, microblogging helps busy people join the conversation while they are on the move, share their ideas, and build a community. Every microblogger is a potential blogger. I see the future of blogging very bright. I share my predictions for 2009 and onwards in this post.

• More Interactivity: Blogs will become more and more interactive. Videos will play an import role in this. Bloggers will learn how to capture fancy-looking and professional videos to differentiate themselves in the blogosphere.
