Stripped down a blog is nothing more than a website. However, what is it about blogs that make them a perfect tool for making money online?

Blogs are content driven and serve to build relationships with search engines.

Search engines such as google, Yahoo and MSN reward information sites that are full of information, by giving them better positioning in search results and indexing these sites quickly. This makes these sites soar to the top of the search engine rankings. Blogs also maintain a stickiness as they draw return visitors to a website far more likely.
