On the internet, there are many websites where you can create blogs for free like blogger.com, wordpress.com, blog.com, myspace.com, weebly.com, vox.com. But most popular blogging sites are Blogger.com and Wordpress.com, where people really love to blog about the things they are most passionate about. Both of these blogging platforms have great facilities and one can start making some money from their blogs instantly by using the affiliates programs of their niche.
Before setting up a blog on any of blogging service, you will need to decide the niche and the keywords you will be targeting in your future blog. There are many areas one can blog about like ‘Some Financial issues’, ‘general Health issue’, ‘Travel related’, ‘About Celebrities’, ‘Products Reviews’, ‘About money making ideas’ etc. But the best idea for blogging will be to blogs about the things you are most passionate about. To blog about a particular topic or niche, you don’t need to be an expert of that. But you must have the passion for that and will need to keep on adding relevant post to your blog about that topic.
So once you have decided the topic for your blog, you should start adding relevant posts on your blog. You can begin with writing small general articles or reviews about the topic of your choice.
There are plenty of ways you can earn money from blogging if you are able to drive some traffic to your blog:
Table of content
Google adsense
Affiliate programs
Text Link Ads
Selling Advertising
paid blogging
According to me, Google adsense is the easiest way to earn some profit from your blog. Google Adsense is a pay per click program where the bloggers are paid for every click that are made on the Google adsense ads placed on their blogs. You must have seen “Ads by Google” on many blogs in their sidebar, footer, within post or even in their header. To use Google Adsense, one need to apply for it with a blog and once approved by Google adsense Team, can use the Adsense ads on his/her blog. Google adsense offers contextual, image based and search based ads that blogger can place on their blogs. Adsense ads are highly customizable and are available in many formats like 160*600, 250*250, 200*200 etc. Bidvertiser is also a pay per click program like Google adsense.
There are thousands of affiliate programs available on the internet that bloggers can use on their blogs. In case of affiliate marketing, you are paid for each sale that you generate through your blog and not just paid for every click. To earn profit from affiliate programs, one can make post targeting some specific affiliates and even can add the banners and links for affiliates in their sidebar, header or footer. But to get maximum success with affiliates, one should aim at the products and services that are some way related to their blogs. If you have a weight loss blog, go for weight loss specific affiliate programs. Some of best affiliate programs include Amazon.com, Commission Junction, ClickBank, LinkShare, Google adsense products.
Bloggers can make some handsome amount of dollars every month from their blogs by adding text link ads on their blogs. There are many websites that pay to bloggers for placing text link ads on their blogs like textlinksads.com/, linkadage.com, textlinkbrokers.com etc
Selling the space to advertisers on your blog is the best and consistent revenue stream a blogger can dream of creating on his blog. If you have a blog that is very popular in a particular niche, you have great chance of selling some advertising space on your blog. You can charge hundreds of dollars for placing a small banner for a client in your blog sidebar. And you have more space available in your sidebar that you can use to sell more space to advertisers on your blog. But to get this kind of advertisers for your blog, your blog must be very popular and should have stable reader base.
There are many websites on the internet like payperpost.com, reviewme.com that pay to bloggers for writing reviews for their affiliate products and websites.
