I realize it has been quite a while since I last posted on this blog but I have been so busy making money writing content, that I kind of let this blog slip. My sincere apologies for that, so to make it up I wanted to write a longer post this time and challenge you guys to increase your content, links and thus, income.

As you might know, I have been a member of The Keyword Academy for quite some months now and it is nothing compared to when I first joined. I have learned a huge amount of new things, plenty of aha moments, the ones that are significant when it comes to making money online. What I TKA is that they are continuously upgrading their program. For example, they have now added a super duper keyword research tool that makes it super easy to find out which keywords to target in order to make money writing. This tool alone has saved me so much time, that I feel it justifies the membership, but it doesn´t end there.

There is of course the forum filled with people that are actually earning a lot of money (some several thousands a month) and who are willing to share their real down to earth experiences. No hyped up answer tricking you into buying stuff, just straight forward honest answers. The monthly webinars are packed with info and offers you the chance to get direct contact with the owners of The Keyword Academy.

No matter how much I love TKA, you shouldn´t just take my word for it, but try out the system, first month is just a buck and I am sure you will be blown away. One warning though, if you want to make money quick without putting in the work, don´t go there.

Anyways, this post is about a personal challenge I wanted to do because at times it is hard to stay focused and on your track. I know that that is not just my own problem, but also a problem for many people out there who are trying to make money writing or selling products online. It can even be that you work on a project for days, weeks even and are really on a roll but you get sidetracked by one of those hyped up programs offering you riches and before you know it, you fall in the trap and forget all about what really works… creating content and building links.

In comes the Focus Challenge, my personal challenge for this month, and the one thing I want to achieve is the ability of writing a lot of content daily and make it a daily habit to create a certain amount of content before anythings else.

This content can then be used to either become posts on my money websites or to create links to them in order to pull in more search engine traffic.

I bought a nifty desktop application called “Write or Die” (only cost a few bucks and it is a lot of fun). What this application really does is motivate you to write a certain amount of words in a certain amount of time. This content you create can then be used for the above reasons, of course after carefully editing it.  There is an online version of the Write or Die application (no affiliate link) so you can check it out.

Anyways, my personal goal is to create at least 6000 words before doing anything else. This can be devided in posts for ezine, posts for my own sites, posts for Infobarrel, hubpages, squidoo or whatever, they could even serve as posts for the special linkbuilding program the TKA has in order to build more backlinks.

The other day when I was going to do my groceries I remembered something somebody once said to me about making it online or not. I can´t remember the whole story in detail and won´t bore you with that, but the gest of it was something like this.

When planting a seed in order to grow a nice tree, you will find that in the beginning nothing happens. You plant the seed, put soil on top of it and water it but on the outside you won´t see anything move. You will need to keep watering it and caring for it, or else the seed will die. Just keep nurturing it and do all you can to make sure this seed will grow into a beautiful strong tree and don´t give up, even though you don´t see anything growing in the beginning.

Cause the sad thing is, that is what many people do, they give up too soon. And wouldn´t you kick yourself in the butt if you´d find out later on that you were only an hour away from that seed coming out and breaking through the soil?

So yeah, my goal is to create the habit of writing 6000 words daily, 30.000 words weekly, 120.000 words monthly cause I feel that is an achievable amount to accomplish and it will certainly make a big difference to my business.
