Making A Blog Company: LLC Opportunities And Ideas For Bloggers

A blog can become an extremely profitable form of online income for anyone who has the dedication and know-how. If you are not yet familiar with the fundamentals behind blogging and search engine optimization (SEO) or internet promotion/marketing, then you might want to take a look in the Writer's Section to better educate yourself in these fields and get your website started. For those that are already earning money through your blog or other website and are looking to increase that income or turn your blog into a legitimate business, please read on to learn some exciting information about incorporating your blog, outsourcing your content writing or link building, maximizing your profits, and many other essential skills of the successful blogger or website owner.



Creating An LLC For Your Blog

Many bloggers and web owners choose to monetize their website through Google AdSense. If you currently own multiple domains, or even if you regularly post on sites like Hubpages that also allow you to monetize your articles, creating an LLC to back your online money-making efforts can really help to maximize your success.

As an immediate benefit, you will be able to open multiple Adsense or other affiliate program accounts - one for you and one for your business. This will improve the benefits you will receive from interlinking between your different websites or hub pages by making each page run on a different AdSense account. It is true that multiple domains can be set up to all use the same AdSense account, but the linking done between the two pages will be greatly reduced in relevance because both pages share the same advertising account.

If you are planning to have employees work on your blog for you, creating an LLC for your website can quickly turn a simple blog or page into a legitimate online business. Your business taxes filed at the end of the year will be able to include you as the owner of an online business - you will even be able to apply for business loans under your LLC to help promote or maintain your website.


Hiring Employees For Your Website

When you are just starting out as a web moderator or writer, you will probably want to do most of the work yourself. If, however, you are earning some sort of steady income though websites you already own, you can very often times multiply your income by deciding to hire experienced individuals to help you write for and promote your website.

Depending on the type of page you run, you may or may not want your content to be solely written by you. If you are looking to expand the reach of your website, it really might be a good idea to start outsourcing some or all of the work that goes in to it.
  • You can still choose what topics your site will discuss by hiring content writers. Simply provide any content writer or writing firm with the keywords you want to use, as well as any additional details or requirements involved with your article and they will have it finished and sent back to you in no time.
  • The same content writing technique can also be used to build linking domain for your webpage. Hire content writers to write relevant content on any particular subject that is discussed on your page to be used as guest posts and article submissions for websites across the web -  over time these articles will greatly improve the amount of traffic brought to your site, especially if you only purchase keyword focused articles. If you want to spend as little as possible on content writing for link building, consider asking your writing team to perform rewrites instead of original articles for a lesser fee.
  • The look, feel and functionality of your website is not the most important aspect of web ownership in most cases, but having a visually appealing page will ultimately do plenty of good. If you plan to be opening new websites, or if you want to fix up one of your already existent sites but don't know very much about web design, consider hiring a low-budget web designer to give you that extra jump on your competition or prepare your next website project for you entirely.
Making decent money through an online source is great, but the time that you put towards earning that money should always be considered when deciding what to do next. Remember that your time as a successful webmaster is valuable, and learning to outsource the work that you don't necessarily have to do yourself will provide you with extra time to work on increasing your overall income, rather than just maintaining it.
