You won't create a Web site that makes $100 a day by just throwing up a domain name and placing content onto the site. And even if you have a good idea for a Web site, that money will at first only trickle in. After some time, the money will increase, and then increase some more. It may take up to a year, and maybe even more, before you have a $100/month site.

That does not mean that you should just sit around and do nothing to help your site along. In fact, there are a lot of things you can do while you are waiting to ensure that your Web site is making a good chunk of money in the future.

The first thing you need to do is to pick a topic that people will be interested in reading, and which Google will be able to find and rank in the top 10 tier of its search results. This isn't hard to do if you just go into the Google keywords tool, which is located on its AdWords site. Once you get there, plug in keywords on what you woud like to write. Check keyword CPC (cost per click), and rank the CPCs from highest to lowest payout. Select payouts that are at least $1 CPC and write these down.

Now, start writing your content, keeping in mind that the high CPC keywords must be at least 2-5% of your text. Don't go beyond 8%, though, or Google might flag your content as spam.

Once your content is written, you should think of a domain name that uses those high paying keywords. Obtain hosting from a source like HostGator or GoDaddy and create your Web site.

Once your Web site is up and running, monetize it by using Google AdSense, as well as other affiliate advertisers such as ShareASale, Kontera, Amazon, LinkShare, etc. Your high-paying keywords should now allow Google AdSense and other advertisers to generate high-paying affiliate ads.

In order to get ranked in the top 10 of Google search results, your Web site needs to have backlinks. This means that other Web sites must reference your Web site. A quick way to start doing this is to submit your Web site URL to RSS feed sites, social bookmarking sites, and to write articles for sites like EZine articles and ISnare. If you follow the article writing route, write at least 2-3 articles in order to create sufficient backlinks for your site.

Don't forget to generate an XML sitemap for your site. This can be done rather easily if you are using Wordpress, since Wordpress offers a plug-in called Google SiteMap Generator. Whichever way you do it, you should generate a sitemap and then submit it to search engines like Google and Yahoo. These search engines will then index your site and start listing your content in search engine results.

By doing all this, your end purpose is to drive traffic to your blog or other Web site. By driving traffic, you increase the chances that your content readers will occasionally click on an ad that you have placed on your site. With enough clicks (especially if you have $1+ clicks set up), it will not be hard to make your Web site generate $100 (or more) per month.

As stated before, this kind of money-making venture does not happen overnight. But, given that you follow the outlines steps and persevere, you will be on your way to making a nice chunk of change every month.
