Advertisers and paid blogging systems will judge your site using some, or all, of the following factors:

* Quality posts
* Number of incoming links
* Google Page Rank
* Alexa Rating
* Technorati Authority

Some may also give you a piece of code so that they might count your traffic, but we will leave that for now, assuming that sorting the above helps you gain plenty of visitors. So, what do you do to get the best budding ratings on the factors above for your site so you are earning as much as prospective?

First, the easiest thing to do is to make sure that you are writing loads of quality posts. Get someone else to proof read them if you are not 100% certain of your English and make sure they are original, interesting content. This gives advertisers something to view and search engines ample of bait to perhaps send you traffic.

As soon as possible you should do something around your Technorati Authority and your Alexa rating. Starting to help push these now can still be showing improvements in a few months. For Technorati, you need to sign up for an account and claim your weblog. Then every time there is a link to your website from another weblog your Authority is increasing. It takes time for these links to develop, so do this quickly.

The same applies for Alexa. It is a measure of your internet visitors more than time - the more traffic you are getting the lower (better) your Alexa rank. Obviously, increasing your traffic improves your Alexa ranking, but there is also a theory that installing the Alexa button on your site allows them to track every visitor and can improve your ranking. So your next step to prepare your site is to install that straightforward button!

Lastly, we merely need to look at incoming links. This is going to help your Technorati Authority where these links come from the body of a website post, whilst all suitable links to your site will help to improve your Page Rank. So three measures will be improved by getting more links!

You might do this is several ways. For a start, article writing can be very successful. Rewrite some of your posts and submit them to article sites. Not just can this give you quality links, but some of the readers will call into your blog and perhaps follow your RSS feed. This, therefore, improves your Alexa rating (but not Technorati - the links are from directories). If you are lucky, some weblog owners will pick up and reprint your articles on their sites - more links in and possibly counted by Technorati.

There are other ways of building links, such as guest blogging, where you get a weblog owner to publish your work on their weblog in return for a few links to your site. Some websites also remove the rel="nofollow" from comments and it could be well worth leaving meaningful comments on these.

So, the indispensable steps to prepare your site for earning are:

* Write quality posts
* Claim your blog with Technorati
* Add the Alexa button
* Build a network of links through articles, guests posts, comments and so on

That's it!
