Developing Money Making Niche Sites With WordPress 2.6: Video 9 - Managing Your Link Structure

August 21, 2008 Posted under: Blogging by Caroline Middlebrook

wordpress ebookThis is part #9 of a series of 10 videos. Click here to access the full series. The PDF download of the original ebook is also still available.

This video shows you how to setup your link structure so that you can finely control the links that appear in the sidebar of your niche site. This is only really necessary if you want to put links to URLs other than your site pages & posts such as by putting in an affiliate link which is what I did in the original ebook version. If you’re just building basic articles then you really don’t need this video at all!

I show you how to use WordPress widgets and show you how you can use a plugin to order links in a special links widget. This is probably the most technical of all the videos so far but don’t panic because it’s really not necessary unless you really want fine control over the links on your page. If you’ve chosen to use blog posts for your articles you can just use a recent posts widget instead.

This video was supposed to be number 8 so I’m not sure how I managed to mix that up but never mind :-)

Hi Caroline,

that’s exactly what I was looking for. This video shows things, that looks very easy to do. And that’s what I’m gonna do to implement on my niche site. I’ve started to build one last week.

Thanks
Vladan

@Vladan, cool, good luck with it!

I really enjoyed this WordPress tutorial. Thanks again for another good one. Another recommendation for you.

Hi Caroline,

I accidentally stumbled upon your website by accident, and boy, it is one of the most informative and resourceful library I have ever seen. I feel like I am at a Wordpress library. I always had wanted to set up a wordpress.org website but was held back by some technical challenges. But after reading your e-book and using the strategies implemented in your book, I am now ranked very high in Google on a lot of keywords.

What makes you so special is that you come across as very genuine unlike other promoters of “Word press how-to” videos who leave you scratching your head to figure out what they are talking about when it comes to setting up a wordpress blog. In the past, I have always relied on the wordpress.com version. The problem I had with that version of word press is that you cannot monetize it. You cover the aspect of monetization so articulately. As a matter of fact, in my later post, I am going to highly recommend you to my readers when they want to learn more about how to set up a wordpress.org site easily. Blue host is so phenomenal. Go Daddy doesn’t even have a clue when it comes to installing Wordpress despite the fact that I purchase domain names from them. And thanks for the great recommendation for using Blue Scripts. Blue host is the only host on the planet that allows anyone to install a wordpress site in just a click of a mouse. I couldn’t believe how easy it was. Again, I owe my success to you for helping me overcome my procrastination on taking the major step to do something more challenging that I was to afraid to do, which is setting up a Wordpress.org site so easy and simply. Keep up the good work.

Hi Caroline,
I recently set my site up in Wordpress using your book although I had a newer version of Wordpress which caused plenty of confusion as I am completely new to all this!!! Got there in the end though!
The site is up and running and already generating leads for my primary business - I am a mortgage broker in Spain.
So, thank you very much for your guide - it was extremely helpful. I have built some good links in and have a PR of 2.

I have since been absorbing lots and lots of info from your site, SelfMadeMinds, JTPratt and a forum called acorn-domains.

I like all of theses sources as they seem to lay things out exactly as they are with no spin or sales or squeeze pages. So, full credit to you for taking this path and I shall be an avid reader!

I have just started a new site and am looking around for a good static affiliate template for an online shop needing quite a lot of pics.

Best of luck with your own ventures!

Hey Caroline,

You are so welcome. Right now I am currently blogging about a different topic. But when I do get into the topic of Wordpress, I will definitely mention you in my blog posts with links and category dedicated for Wordpress. I am still learning right now especially from you every day.
The whole point I am trying to make is that I want to prevent people from wasting their money on video tutorials that don’t teach you anything at all except how to set up a word press site, but nothing at all about monetizing it. Prior to coming to your site, I bought Brandon Hong’s Wordpress Video Tuturials. A complete rip off. He has not updated his Tuturials since 2006!! I couldn’t get my money back like he promised. So I just want to help people avoid the pain I went through.
I heard of Sherman Hu but the problem I had with his site, he doesn’t mention anything about how to monetize your Wordpress Blogs. He doesn’t solve the problem that I have with Wordpress blogs.
You, my dear, are the only one who addressed this issue dead on. I wished I had discovered you months ago. Instead of paying Brandon Hong $67 for an old outdated course, I would rather have my money going to you instead and with great pleasure!!!
What thing I learned from you is you know how to solve people’s problems and that is what a good marketer does very well. And that is the biggest problem that a lot of so-called Wordpress Tutorial gurus don’t address. I consider you the Ultimate Wordpress Guru!! Keep up the good work, Caroline. :)
