Im a frequent MLG player and would like to blog/vlog my way as a ameuter, and what its like to attend events and stuff.
I would also like to have hardware/video game reviews/play throughs, but how do I go without getting a copyright infragment.
I would also like to make money off it
Check out the first link on my profile. It’s a good site to get started on and they’ll handle the stuff like search engine optimization and monetization. As far as reviews and play throughs I don’t think there will be any issues. As long as you are giving credit to the publisher/manufacturer. Besides, it’s free advertising for them why would they complain.
As for making money there are a couple of ways to do that.
1. The site on my profile already integrates Adsense and Amazon.com into your blog. You’ll just need to sign up for Adsense and amazon.com affiliate program if you aren’t already.
2. Rather than use Youtube and imbed the videos, use a video sharing site that shares ad revenue. Email me if you want a link to the one I use. If your blog and videos become extremely popular and you end up qualifying for a youtube partnership then you may want to consider moving to youtube at that point.

I can’t speak for copyright law. I assume you are selling the hardware that you are referring to? Either way, the easiest way to create a legitimate, professional blog is to use WordPress. It sounds like you know a bit about technology, but even someone who knows nothing can figure it out. If you use a full service hoster like BlueHost, I think you can integrate a shopping cart in there too, though I’m less familiar with shopping cart integration.
