Before you begin, it would be a good idea to sign up for some must have free and also paid memberships. Here are a couple which you would need to start with.
You would need this for two reasons. The first one is to make payments securely with your credit card when you buy training courses and other information. The advantage is that you card details will not be visible to the merchant who is selling the product.
The other advantage is that if you sign up for a monthly membership and for some reason you want to cancel it, you can easily do it through your PayPal account without any problem.
The second thing is that many vendors pay commissions through the affiliate’s PayPal account and so it is important that you have one.
Log into their website, click on signup at the top and register for a “Premier” Account.

Once you have set up your blog for business, you will need to build a list of subscribers so that you can send regular product information (your own or affiliate products) and other related useful information to them.
For this you need to place what is called an opt-in form on your blog to capture the visitor’s name and email address. For this we need a piece of sophisticated software called an auto-responder.
Aweber is an auto-responder which is highly acclaimed by internet marketers. Once set up, Aweber will take care of capturing visitor information through a double opt-in system and email marketing can be completely automated based on the settings you make in it. The cost is below $20/- per month. Visit their website and check for trial offers.
Now that your WP blog is up and running, its time to look at software programs out there which would help you to further monetize your blog automatically.
