2- Find your niche:

How to find a niche is considered nowadays one of the most important thing in the world of creating

blogs. First of all and before going any further, we have to give a definition of what the term niche

signified in the field of blogging. Niche in marketing is that particular and specific detail taken from a

whole idea, A fish in the large ocean. Let me give an example to make things clear. The word cat is a

general word it includes many small attached niche. If we want to pick a niche from this word, it will

be as follow: "cats training", or "buy cats". All what mentioned above is considered as a niche of the

term cat.

Why is niche so important for newbie as well as for professional ?

The answer of this question is easy, because you cannot challenge experts in ranking your blog position

in the search engines if you did choose one single general term such as "cat". Besides, this type of

names are already taken by others as a name of their blog, it is a taken domain name. So the only

solution to get better rank and position in Google and so on, is to pick a niche, and register a domain

name for the chosen niche.

Pay attention to the latest updates of google to not get your blog penalized by google. Avoid registering

micro niches such as how to train your bad cats or best food for my cat or at least check the updates of

google. I think that its better to register a general idea for our domain and in the categories we target

the niches that has to do with our general keyword. by doing so, we will get many targeted keywords

besides many visitors to our blog, and of course getting far from penalizing by the latest updates of

google.

How can i pick a niche, and where should i look for one ?

Also the answer of this question is so easy. Niches are everywhere, only you have to be smart to pick

the best one that has a little competition so you can easily take the first place in Google. Just follow this

method below.

First of all choose any word you want, or any name and go to :

by the way this website gives you limited attempts (10 per day) and just 10 results. So

that, you have to get a membership. You can register from her:

SEMrush.com. The new tool for Search Engine Marketing. US database 40 000 000

keywords. Learn everything about your competitors!

Notice: This website only offers to you 10 results for free, and if you want to get a full access you

have to pay.

and this is how the website looks like.

Page 5: Start blogging from scratch step by step

Then, (2) type the word you did chose, (1) and select the country. (by selecting a country you will

receive a full analyse according to this country, how many visitors look for the word from this country

monthly, and so on). After that click on SEARCH. (look the image below)

You will get an analyse of the chosen word in the chosen country. Just after you get the image below

click on FULL SEARCH on your left side.

Page 6: Start blogging from scratch step by step

Here are the needed information in the domain of niche that a newbie must know:

1: these all what a newbie needs to know about his keyword "niche"

Page 7: Start blogging from scratch step by step

1. KEYWORD: the word chosen

2. CPC: we do not need this one if our income comes from affiliate

marketing.

3. COM. is the competition between the advertisers, it must be high.

4. VOLUME: the monthly search of the keyword in the chosen country.

5. NUMBER OF RESULTS: results of the keyword in Google. Must be low

2: As we said we do not need this one

3: You can chose another country to see the analysis of this term in the Google of this

country.

For newbie :

1. VOLUME: must be high

2. CPC: ***

3. COM.: Must be high between 0,50 and 1

4. RESULTS: under 1,000,000

for middle experience:

1. VOLUME: must be high

2. CPC: ***

3. COM.: Must be high between 0,50 and 1

4. RESULTS: between 1,000,000 and 3,000,000

for experts:

1. VOLUME: must be high

2. CPC: ***

3. COM.: Must be high between 0,50 and 1

4. RESULTS: more than 4,000,000 its ok

So let us take an example to make things look easy.

Page 8: Start blogging from scratch step by step

This example is for experts :

term: bengal cat

1. VOLUME: 135,000

2. CPC: ***

3. COM.: 0,07

4. RESULTS: 4,030,000

As a newbie you have to look for low results so to get a better niche for the same keyword you need

only to click on the keyword chosen. and you will get other results. Look the image below :

Here we have great niches that a newbie can start with.

Page 9: Start blogging from scratch step by step

let´s take one example.

KEYWORDS: bengal cat rescue

1. VOLUME: 1,600

2. CPC: ***

3. COM.: 0,53

4. RESULTS: 530,000

this niche is formidable and you can go ahead and register a domain for your blog. So all what you

have to do now is to check if the domain is available or not. If you found that the domain is already

taken just be smart and add some short words to your niche, such as : the - top - best and so on. but do

not use (-) between the words of your niche. This is how the domain is supposed to looks

like (bengalcatrescue.com) and if it is not available try this one (thebengalcatrescue).

all your competitors.

The main reason behind editing some parts in the setting of your blog is for the enhancement for

the search engines. So just follow these simple steps:

first of all log in to your blog dashboard.

then go down and click on Settings

Page 21: Start blogging from scratch step by step

and click on general

1 -then just write the title of your blog

2 - and the tagline (better to write a small title that will be your mark in the future, must be something

that people can remember easily).

3 - write your email address.

Page 22: Start blogging from scratch step by step

After you finish do not forget to click on Save.

- Now from settings click on discussion.

now we are going to edit the comments moderation. The main reason why we do so is to get rid of

spam and bad comments. By doing so, you will be responsible to approve or not approve the

comments before they appear on your blog.

Page 23: Start blogging from scratch step by step

After you check the necessary boxes do not forget to click on Save.

- Again from settings chose Permalinks.

This step is very important for SEO, because instead of showing the numbers of the post in the link, it

shows the entire title.

for example:

(bad link for seo) : http://th3genie.com/archives/123 or http://th3genie.com/?p=123

(best link for seo) : http://th3genie.com/how-to-install-wordpress-blog-quickly-on-hostgator/

So from permalinks in the common settings chose Post name and click Save.

Page 24: Start blogging from scratch step by step

These were all the necessary steps that we need to pay attention to and change for better search

engines optimization.

Page 25: Start blogging from scratch step by step

6- Get and Install the theme.

Themes are the most thing that couches visitors attention once they are in your blog. If you have a

good looking theme that will impress your visitors, be sure that they will go back asking for more of

what you are presenting on that blog. Most of the blogs owners pay much attention and focus a lot on

this point. They want to see their blog in a fantastic image that will show their visitors that he cares

about his blog´s appearance.

You can find free themes, but this kind of themes are not professional. If you have a blog that targeted

a large of professional audience, then i recommend you to go ahead and purchase a professional

theme. If you are just a newbie who starts his first blog, you have the choice , either to go with the free

themes, or to start your steps and mark it with a professional theme. Make a choice how you want your

blog and beginning to be.

Today i am going to present for you the best and coolest themes that are the most used by bloggers,

besides i am gong to show you how to install them on your blog (for newbie).

1- BUCKET - A Digital Magazine Style WordPress Theme

Pages are very important in blogging. You can not find a blog or a website without pages. Yes we are

talking about; About, contact us, terms of use, and so on. We talked about the importance of such

pages. This importance is shown in the credibility of the blog. once the visitor is checking your blog

and see that you do not have such pages, he will for sure take a bad idea about your blog and of course

dont trust it. The same thing will happened in what concerns the view of search engines towards your

blog. So be careful and add these important pages to your blog.

addition for us? Please feel comfortable to ask/suggest.

Thanks in advance.

Now let us go and install the plugin.

From your blog Dashboard click on Plugins ----> Add new.

In the search Plugins box type " Contact Form 7 "

then click on Install Now.

Page 32: Start blogging from scratch step by step

And click on Activate Plugin

And thats all for Contact us page. Now your visitors can contact you easily with this plugin.

We are going to repeat the same steps.

Go to your blog dashboard and click on Pages then Add new.

In the title write "About us"

And in the form below the title type your introduction in which you describe your blog, yourself, and

for what purpose you created this blog.

For example :

Nowadays the majority of people are getting tired of their jobs, tired of the low salary, tired of boss´s

oppression. So why don´t you start your own business and reach the top? the answer will be that you

do not know where or how to start. Th3GENIE.COM is here to help you make your first step towards

your dream of having your own successful business. Do not panic anymore, instead take your laptop

and follow the steps, and do not forget, stay hungry stay foolish.

Th3genie is a blog that has the aim of teaching newbie how to reach the top step by step. The main idea

behind creating such a blog is to help all those who want to make their first dollar online, but they do

not know how to start or from where to begin.

What about experts and those who are already in the domain?

Page 33: Start blogging from scratch step by step

Also experts and professionals will benefit from the new strategies besides all the plans that we are

going to suggest, such as, plans of marketing and how to promote your products, your affiliate

products. How to take your blog to the top of the search engine. Add to this, enhance your blog income.

After you finish writing your about page click on publish

Thats all for creating pages. Now all what rest is to add these pages in your Menu bar. Follow the

instructions below.

To add your Pages to your Menu bar go to your blog dashboard and click on Appearances

Then click on Menus

Page 34: Start blogging from scratch step by step

As you see in the photo above from pages click on View all and select the pages you want them to

appear on your menu, and click on Add to menu

After you select the pages go a little bit down and select Theme location and select Main after that click

on Save Menu

Page 35: Start blogging from scratch step by step

Now go to your blog and check how things look like. (everything is great and cool) hhhh now you have

your blog with the main pages.

8- Create and add categories to your blog.

Categories have the same goal as pages except in this time you can add many topics in each category

the thing that you cannot do in pages. Also categories show that your blog is professional and that has

many categories which allow your visitor to check while doing what they came for. Categories, with

interesting titles, will catch your visitors attention to stay a little bit longer on your blog.

How to create new category :

first of all go to your dashboard then click on Posts and Categories

then :

1- write the name for your category such as "blogging"

2- write the slug, type the name of the category "blogging"

3- write a short description of your category, not long.

Page 36: Start blogging from scratch step by step

then click on Add new category

(repeat these steps to create more categories)

- Now let us add these categories to our Menu, the same steps we did with the pages.

Go to your dashboard and click on appearances then Menus

Page 37: Start blogging from scratch step by step

Click on view all to get all the created categories. then select the ones you want to appear on the menu

bar, and click on Add to menu.

Do not forget to check theme location and click on Save Menu

Now you can go and visit your blog to see how things look like.

Page 38: Start blogging from scratch step by step

9- Create a free logo for your blog.

As websites and bloggers´owners we know that our blog appearance comes in the first class. A bad

blog looking shows that you are not making a big effort on your blog, shows that you are not able

to take care of your visitors. So that, the visitors will not stay in your blog which will cost you the lose

of future customers who are supposed to buy your product or to do an action on your blog. So, the

majority of you will ask how can i take care of my blog? Well the answer of this question is easy as

drinking water. Let me tell you first something. supposed that you was invited to visit your friend that

you did not see him for along time, the school´s days, he gave you his address. once you arrived, what

was the first thing you did pay attention to before coming inside the house? Well for sure your answer

will be the outside appearance of the house, in the blogs and websites´field is known by the theme.

Now you are inside the house. I´m sure that the first thing that caught your attention would be the

decoration. In the world of blogging it is known by The logo and of course the plugins that you are

using.

I suppose that the idea is clear right now. To have a good looking blog you have to pay attention to two

things; the theme and the logo. Today we are going to talk about how to get free logo to use it on your

blog. There is another way to get easy and quick logo by buying it from experts but it will cost you

about 5 dollars for a simple logo and about 50 dollars for a logo that is occupied with a cartoon

character.

The method that we are going to discover today is really workable and of course it is free. So let´s get

the work start.

First go to logo garden

the website has really a great appearance, im sure that you will like it too, and of course what matters

us is the easy steps and the short time. It is really a very quick website logo maker.

Page 39: Start blogging from scratch step by step

Once you are in the website click on MAKE MY FREE LOGO

Just after you click on make my free logo you will be transformed to the next step, which is to select the

industry you are working in. For example for me the industry i´m working in, is the industry of making

money and marketing. So that, i have to chose marketing and communication. So pick up your

industry and click on it.

Page 40: Start blogging from scratch step by step

great logo

After you choose the industry chose your symbol. This website offers you plenty of symbols that you

can use and it´s free. Go and check all of them and chose the best one that you see it associated with

your blog context.

Page 42: Start blogging from scratch step by step

The last step is named color and type. in this step you are going to customize your logo. you have to

add the text, and the tag line if you want, besides you can change the color of the name of the logo, the

tag line, and also the symbol. You can also edit their sizes. (This step is up to you to show us how

professional you are.) One things to pay attention to is the effects that you can add to your logo, such

as,Shadow, Reflect, and Distress

1- Symbol effects

2- symbol and text effect.

Page 43: Start blogging from scratch step by step

Here is the example that i made for you (my blog´s logo).

After you finish customizing your logo just click on Save now

Page 44: Start blogging from scratch step by step

Before you can download your free logo you need to register an account. Do not worry it´s free.

Page 45: Start blogging from scratch step by step

After you finish the process of registration, they will send you your logo to the email you register with.

So; GO and check your emails.

Page 46: Start blogging from scratch step by step

Do not forget to send us the examples you made to see it. Thanks in advance.

Page 47: Start blogging from scratch step by step

10- Install the necessary plugins.

Plugins as all we know are very important because they give a very wonderful and useful addition to

our blog, and no need to mention the well optimization of our blogs on the search engines. I will give

you all the necessary plugins for your blog and i will start by an example of a statistic plugin to show

you how to install new plugins, and then you will be able to add many other plugins by yourself. I will

also put a list of the necessary plugins and all what you need to do is to follow the steps we are going to

provides for its user and its all for free, but they are not all professionals. There are many incredible

12- Write your first SEO article.

Now after creating our blog and set up all the necessary plugins, besides the email list, now let us start

the work. I mean let us create some real content that will catch the attention of visitors as well as the

attention of the search engines. When i talk about the search engines i mean getting more visitors

automatically from google, yahoo, bing and so on. To get visitors by this way we need to focus on

writing articles that are well enhanced for SEO. First of all we need to look for keywords that has to do

with our niche and start creating articles, topics about it. For this reason we will need :

Notice: you can write by following the way you like, but this method will offer to you little

competition and of course many targeted visitors to your blog.

by the way this website gives you limited attempts (10 per day) and just 10 results. So

that, you have to get a membership. You can register from her:

SEMrush.com. The new tool for Search Engine Marketing. US database 40 000 000

keywords. Learn everything about your competitors!

Notice: This website only offers to you 10 results for free, and if you want to get a full access you

have to pay.

You can go up to see how to use it or just visit this link : How to find the best niche (best method for

newbie)

Once you found the keyword that has little competition you can start writing your first article.

During writing your article pay attention to target the main keyword among the lines of your content.

To make things clear i will show you an example of a niche and an article made for that niche:

The niche is called : munchkins cats.

the main keyword is : munchkins cats.

Notice: do not repeat the main keyword many times to not appears as Black SEO for search engines.

suppose that your article is all about 500 words then the main keyword should be repeated betwen

3 and 4 times. If your article is about 1000 words, then the main keyword should be repeated between

4 and 8 as maximum. Notice: I am using these numbers personally, you can use it or you can add on it,

but i recommend to be this way.

One last thing to pay attention to is to not write the main keyword as it is. Once write it like

this; munchkins cats. once like; cats munchkins, and once as the type of munchkins cats, and so on.

You have to make a mixture of the keyword to not look like black seo.

Example of an article made for SEO:

Munchkin cats are relatively a new type of breed which has become popular over last few years. This

domestic cat is uniquely identified by their short legs. The short limbs are due to a natural genetic

mutation. Cats Munchkins are small to medium-sized cat breed and they have a weight from 5 to 9

pounds. Aside from his short legs, munchkin appears like any other cat breed. These types of cats are

well-suited for any home environment where they get love and care.

Page 78: Start blogging from scratch step by step

People always have a misconception that Munchkins cats are slow or they are a laid-back type. But

when you see a munchkin running very fast and cornering around your dining table you will definitely

change your mind. Apart from their short legs, munchkin cats have a normal physique. They are

compact as well as sturdy animals. The hind legs are longer compared to forelegs and tail has medium

length and it narrows towards its tip. Their short legs never prevent them from jumping on furniture.

Though they cannot easily make their way to high places like other cats do, they will definitely find

their way eventually.

In general, Munchkin cats have the same characteristics as an average domestic cat. Munchkins

come in both long and short haired types and in just about any color pattern that domestic cats have.

They are quite gentle and sweet in their nature. A friendly munchkin loves to play with kids and other

cats. As they are gentle and loving in nature, they cannot protect themselves properly from stray cats

and dogs. So it is good to keep them indoors. Besides, keep them indoors to protect from vehicles,

diseases and to prevent attack from other animals. Being social and intelligent, munchkin cats like to

be around their loved ones all the time.

Other interesting thing is that Munchkins have a nickname magpie, because they like shiny objects and

will often hide them away. It is good to keep away your valuable from your pet. The Munchkin cats are

highly intelligent. It is easy to teach them tricks and they like to play with puzzle toys.

Munchkin cats are pretty healthy. It is always good to purchase a munchkin cat from a breeder who

ensures a written health assurance. But it is important to protect him from having obesity issues. It is

good to keep him at an appropriate weight which is also a good way to protect his overall general

health.

There are many reputable breeders and pet stores provide Munchkins cats for sale. Almost all

breeders and pet stores have their own website and you easily choose your favorite munchkin from

there. A munchkin cat price depends on the sex of the cat, breeder and pattern or color. Average

cost of a munchkin cat can be from $350 to $500. You can also ask your veterinarian to refer a good

breeder. You can also choose munchkin cats from animal rescue organization. No matter, from

wherever you get your Munchkin, ensure that you have a good agreement with the seller which clearly

states obligations of both sides.

The longest is your article the best it is. So focus on writing long article, above 600 words.

So just follow these steps in writing your articles and search engines well fall in love with your blog and

of course that means lot of targeted visitors.
