Rob Benwell is the author of a book, “Blogging to the Bank”, which is centered on blogging methods that generate good search engine positions. Blogs have to be pinged by search engines, and thus they appear very quickly on search engines. Rob also incorporates Adsense into his program in a kind of “blog and ping” method. This has made a lot of people a lot of money in the last few years.

The bad news? The big shots at Google and Yahoo are aware of this method. People are beginning to classify this stuff as “blog spam”, and it appears to be getting less and less effective. Everything Rob talks about is legitimate, but it is almost obsolete. Plus, with all the online gurus selling the “blog and ping” technique, the market saturation will prevent most people from making any money with it

Hi Everyone, First off this may seem lengthy. I started blogging heavily last month. I concentrated on my content, writing for my human visitors while keeping those robots in mind, and I built a few links every now and then. But I wasn't getting to where I wanted to be. So I read "Blogging To The Bank". The only thing I hadn't thought of was the cluster blog effect. Well, I did sort of, but never put it into action. Then I tried it, I hated it. I felt like what I was doing was pretty much spam. People have their opinions, and that is mine. But the whole cluster thing got me to thinking, why I couldn't I take those keywords and instead of putting them on seperate blogs, just somehow incorporate them into 1 blog. It took quite a bit of work over 7 days-I have 7 posts in my "niche" blog, and I have 4 keyword/keyword phrases on the first page of MSN. I would like to open this up for discussion, and see if anyone else is doing this type of blogging. I mean today I got $83.31 in affiliate commissions and well can't tell you my ADSENSE earnings but it feels so good to make $100+ dollars on your 7th day of starting your blog. All from MSN traffic. Can't wait to start getting more links and get into Yahoo, and maybe the big "G" later. Has anyone had immediate blogging success like this? Please let me know, I know a lot of what I am doing towards my SEO for my blogs, but then again 7 days seems way too fast. I guess if it works, I will just keep replicating on more niches:) it.
