1. Decide what your niche will be and find keywords/keyword phrases for your articles and site.

2. Create your own articles for your niche, hire someone to do them for you, or get free/buy PLR articles and rewrite them.

3. Decide on what kind of platform to set your site up on. There are many to chose from that are available for free or paid: blogs,
squidoo, your own hosted website, etc...


4. Pick a catchy URL/name for your site, blog, etc...


5. Optimize your website for search engines.
