If you are looking for a fresh approach on an old concept, making money online, then you will want to check out the latest money making blog that is being reviewed by Bloggeries. The blog is called Make Money Online with EJ Cooksey, and can be found on its own domain at . The blogger is EJ Cooksey who is a work at home mom, whose industry is primarily the Internet. Given that she runs approximately 13 blogs, and is heavy into affiliate marketing, she is probably very good at it, which lends some credibility to her blogging advice. This blogger has a lot of interests however, and they include reading, family, and ‘making a million dollars online’ among many other interests that she has. Get an idea for what EJ Cooksey and her blog is all about by looking at any of her recent bloggeries: A to Z and a Simple 1,2,3; Earn 100% Commission with George Plus’s Dime Sale; Have a Wonderful Easter!; Motivation and Momentum; Will you Find all the ‘Hidden’ Freebies?; A Little Biz Can Make Big Money Online; FREE Internet Marketing Products and Downloads!; It’s My Blogaversary!;, Inspiring Irish Blessing; Review – Roboform; and 11 Useful Tips for How to Use the Secret!
The blog is neatly laid out into boxes that contain the blog meat, and this makes it easy to navigate. You will find a top menu bar, as well as a left and right sided navigation system, with bloggeries being centralized. In the top menu bar, you will find links to Home, Money Makers, Favorite Sites, Freebies, About Me, Contact, Disclosure Policy, and Privacy Policy. Bloggeries are in black text on the yellow background of the boxes, and the header of the blog is in green, which is to make you think of money and making money while you are there. In the left sided navigation bar you will find the Blogger Profile; Subscription buttons; Recommended Money Makers; Recommended Products and Programs Menu; Free Reports, Programs and Ebooks Menu; Categories Menu (called Labels); Archives Menu, and a Recent Entrecard Droppers Widget. The blog is a very informative and comprehensive blog which you can see in its extensive categories menu which will direct you to sections such as 100% Referral Commissions, Affilliate Marketing, Blog Reviews, Contests, Copywriting, Daily 3$ Special, and so much more. The right sided navigation systems is used strictly for Entrecard purposes as well as some advertising and AdSense.
This blog gets a 3.4/5 at this point with just a few suggestions to offer. Overall this is a well organized blog with a clean template and thus it scores well on navigation scores. Content is well written in a strong personal voice that is credible for the reader. Activity scores are lacking a little as the blog is averaging around 15 or 16 posts a month, and scores would be higher with regular, meaning daily, activity. The appearance scores of the blog could use some work, as this blog has quite extensive advertising located throughout the entire blog, and this reviewer found it more than a little distracting. I understand the function of the blog is to make money, but throughout the entire read during the review, I kept feeling like someone was trying to ‘sell me’ something. Otherwise however, this is a well organized blog, and comprehensive in the amount of information it puts out. With regular activity, it should be able to maintain and sustain a healthy readership over time.
