1. Sign up for an account at Today.com. Today.com is a website which pays you to have your own blog. You will simply fill out the evaulation form and choose a topic to write about. You will want to choose a topic that you love to talk about so that you don't run out of things to write.

2. Begin your blog. The instructions on how to do this are simple and are stated simply on the site. You can write about anything you choose. Try to stay on topic for yout blog because you will  get much more traffic than you would if you write about anything and everything on one site.

3. After a few days of blogging there, sign up for a second blog. This one should have different topic than the first, but can still be about anything you like.  Currently, Today allows VIP bloggers to have two different blogs that earn money online.

4. Open a paypal account if you haven't done so already. Make sure that you sign up for the money market option so that your money can earn interest.

5. Get paid! Today.com pays one dollar per 100 word post plus you get money from ad revenue. If you post at both blogs each day, that's an extra $600 - $800 a year. Enough to give your family a nice Christmas or for you to even take a cruise!
