Basic Blog that Generates Money

Looking to make a little extra cash by making a blog. Im not to sure how i go about doing so... Is an AutoBlog a good way? Not looking to make much just some extra cash each week would be nice then ill gradually move onto bigger and better things! (Well that's the Plan)

Would i be best basing it on something im familiar with such as a hobbie? Gaming, Computers, Bikes i could write quite a bit of all of them but im guessing there we be a lot of other blogs doing the same.

What do you think? Also Blogger or Wordpress?

wordpress hosted on Hostgator or other host provider
dont go for the free wordpress cuz it sucks and you can lose your blog :-(

I agree with romeo.. And do keyword research before buying a domain

Buy an expired or aged Domain..and auto blogs are cool if you have a hand full... like 100 or so
