How to earn money from blogging ? -

Actually it s not too difficult to make money from blogging. That s why I ve come to love blogs so much. I never used to use them but once I discovered I could actually write about something I was very interested in AND make money doing it, I ve moved over to the blogging world. It s real easy to get a free Adsense theme and set up ads on your site, then when people come to your blog and click on them you get money. Sounds simple and too good to be true, doesn t it? Well the trick is getting people to your blog. And the way you do that is post a lot. Every day if possible, and if not then at last twice a week. And keep it up with persistence. Eventually you ll see traffic coming in and those visitors will start clicking on your ads and some money will start coming in. You can also become an affiliate with a company (like Amazon, Walmart, Best Buy, etc) and then you can talk about different things in your posts, link to products, and get paid a commission when people buy. You can actually make some good change that way. There are LOTS of other ways you can make money with blogging. I found an article that reviews a site that will go into much more depth and also gives a step-by-step guide to help you earn money, I ll post it below. Good luck. |::::|The first key to the success of a blog or mini site is that it has to target a group of people (a niche) who are hungry for information of a specific nature. In other words, I m talking about the selection of your niche. The group of people that your blog or mini site targets has to be a group of people who have problems. Problems in the sense that they are looking for a solution to something, looking to improve something. Furthermore, in a great niche, that SOMETHING, is something that causes pain. Financial pain, physical pain, emotional pain, some sort of pain, for the simple reason that people who have pain are the people who will want to buy solutions to that pain, and hopefully from your website. If that sounds a bit sick, trying to exploit people with pain, it s not. It s called marketing. You ve had marketers doing it to you your whole life and you probably never even knew about it, why can t you do it too? And what s more, you re actually going to provide these people with a real solution, so you re being helpful! Anyhow moving on. So you re looking for a group of people with a problem, but that s not all. Your next concern has to be whether there are enough of these people searching for solutions to their problems on the internet. How many is enough you ask? It s a good question. With certain kinds of sites, all you need is 10 visitors to your site a day and you can turn a nice monthly profit. Other niches and products that you promote you might need thousands per day. It all depends on what you sell, and who to, AND how much commission you make when you sell to them. The things you should do are look at the search volume, as indicated by a tool like Wordtracker. Here you re simply looking at how many searches per day a particular keyphrase gets in the search engines. Then after that, you want to look at whether there are other sites or blogs that are competing in the same niche. Contrary to what alot of people think, NO competition isn t necessarily a good thing. NO competition could and often does mean that it s not a profitable niche. What you actually want is SOME competition, but CRAPPY competition that you can DESTROY by making a better site, providing better content and in a better way. The final piece of the puzzle of finding a good niche, is whether the niche has a quality product for you to promote. You need something to sell to these people, that is high quality, has great marketing material (sales letter etc, so it will convert your traffic well) and pays a decent commission. This is of course assuming you re looking at the affiliate marketing model of making money with your blog - which I suggest if you re looking to retire from your job and earn a full time passive income, you SHOULD be. There are other ways to make money where you might think about some different factors in your niche selection. So if you can combine all of the above factors when selecting your niche, you ll be giving yourself and your new blog the best possible chance of success. I hope you ve found this valuable.|::::|Checkout Become a blogger by Yaro Starak below.|::::|Here are a few of the most common methods of making money with a blog. You ll have varying degrees of success with each one depending on your blog. Some will work better than others. 1. Donation button.? This is probably the easiest way to make money with your blog. I d venture it s probably the least successful too. At least for the beginning blogger. There are sites that can support a whole business based only off donations...but it s not the norm. 2.? Sell products directly. Do you make your own product that you want to sell? Want some cheap/free advertisment for an offline business? A blog can be just the answer you are looking for. You can set up a blog and talk about your products. You can use the blog to keep connected with your customers. Get feedback, suggestions for improvements, even use it for support!? 3. Adsense monetization. Is your site generating some traffic?? You might consider using adsense ads. If you ve done any marketing you ve probably heard of PPC, pay per click, which basically you pay Google to place your ad on their search results page. Adsense is the reverse of that. Google pays YOU to place ads on YOUR webpage. If you have decent traffic, you could make some good money from it. Of course if you go overboard with it you could turn-off your readers and lose your traffic. 4. Affiliate Marketing.? This is probably one of the most popular ways to make money with a blog. Basically, a company will pay you to sell their product.? You do the advertising and when you make a sale, you will earn a percentage of the sale. This payout varies widely depending on what it is. For instance, digital products can pay out 75% of the sale!! How cool is that? Now brick and mortar store programs are closer to 2-3%, but people usually buy more from them so it can work out better. There are some other ways of using a blog to make money, but these 4 methods are probably the most common |::::|Hi Eylaine, Create your blog, free with blogger.com. then sign up with adbrite or google adsense, get ads from them, then place the ads on your blog. promote your blog, when you get alot of traffic, people click on thr ads and you make money.. you can also write on associatedcontent.com for money..
