Now, your blog has to be customized to look like one that makes money.The first thing I do is to revert to classic template.Now don't be carried away with that.The reason why I do this is to be able to place my adsense well since I do not know HTML(that is the programming language of the internet) so much.However,if you understand html very well,you may not do so.To revert to the classic template,simply click on layout/Template,go and click on edit HTML,scroll down the page that opens until you see a link that says "revert to classic template".Click on it and say yes on the small box that comes up.

The next thing to do is to hide the blogger bars of your blog.According to Akin Alabi,the bar makes your blog look unprofessional.To do this,follow the following steps;

1: Log into your account

2: Click on LAYOUT.If you have reverted to classic template,click on TEMPLATE,then click on "edit HTML". When you get there, you'll see lots of codes in the "edit template"box. On the 7th or 8th line of those codes, you'll see

In the first lesson we introduce Google Adsense as the easiest way to earn online income without spending a dime, at least not if you did not want to.We also learn that all you need to do is to get a rich content website or a FREE Blog with some amount of traffic(that is people visiting your website or blog ), then apply for a free adsense account, where google will place some small ads on your site thereby making you income on auto pilot if visitors to the site click on the ads.

In this lesson we are going to be discussing creating your blog because it will form the basis of our adsense business. I know you might want to ask me why blog and not a website. Yes, i favoured blog because it is what i use to get result and because blogs are free. And since you are just starting out without big income to start with, it is better to go the way of FREE Blogs.

What is a Blog?
Blogging is a way of collecting links to webpages and sharing thoughts and ideas with people online.Blogs (or Weblogs) are basically online journals or diaries which are great for sharing information and ideas.I call a blog an online journal that is frequently updated.If you understand the concept of keeping a diary, you will understand the concept of blogging.

According to Blogger.com: “A blog is a personal diary. A daily pulpit. A collaborative space. A political soapbox. A breaking-news outlet. A collection of links. Your own private thoughts. Memos to the world.”

As well as text, blogs often contain audio, music, images and video.They’re also really easy to make, so you can have one even if you aren’t very technical.Anything can be posted instantly to a blog.

Types of Blog?
There are several blogging platforms but the most common ones are Blogger.com, Wordpress.com, Typepad.com, Reallifelog.com,etcOf all the blogging platforms i am most familiar with Blogger and Wordpress but i favoured Blogger.com because it is what i use to get the most result, it is free and most of all it is easy to use.With Blogger.com to get your blog running you need just 3 Easy steps and in less than 15 minutes you are done and you dont need to be an expert to create a blog.You can start posting to your blog immediately, hope you can see why i favoured Blogger.com.

The 3 Step to creating a Blog with Blogger.com are;

1. Create an account-that is, sign up with blogger.com

2. Name your blog- choose a name based on the niche that you are interested in blogging on

3. Choose a Template- Dont need a knowledge of web designing because you lots of ready made template to choose from.

After submitting your account blogger will send a congratulatory message telling you that your account was successful and that you can start posting immediatelly. You can do a test post by clicking on create a new post and write a "welcome to my blog " and click publish, viola your blog is up and running. You can then start posting on your niche topic you come back daily, twice weekly or weekly.

Well i have to stop now, but make sure you come back for lesson 3 on this series of,"Google Adsense: The Easiest Way to Make Money online". But please dont forget to ask questions or leave a comment so as to make my job of educating you easy.

To your Success,
