Making money blogging may not be as easy as it sounds. In fact out of the many blogs scattered all over the internet, very few can really make money. the others are just trying to, have tried and failed or gave up on the entire idea of making money out of blogs.
To make something out of your weblog you must have a clear plan on how to do it. Whether you are going to sell ad space or run Google Adsense , it requires the correct timing and planning.
Here are tips that will help you generate cash out of your blog.
Blogs that solve problems make money- Think about it this way. If you talk about hair issues chances are that your adverts wiil be about hair products. Many of your readers are likely to click on your ads or buy the products. On the other hand a blog about showbiz may not make much money. Reason being that it doesn't solve any problems. People are just reading your blog for fun.
Traffic is the most important thing- It doesn't matter whether you are going to use pay per click advertising or SEO or social media, just make sure you are getting traffic. I know of sites that have little or no information but they still make money. Reason being that they have tonnes of traffic.
Have relevant ads on your blog- Having ads about fast food restaurants on a body fitness blog is not going to make you money. It will only make you lose your credibility. Make sure ads on your blog provide what readers won't get by reading your blog. Something that supplements what they have just read.
Many ads don't mean more money- Having ads on every single space on your blog doesn't mean you are going to reap huge amounts of cash. It will only show how desperate you are and push your readers away. Most people actually become 'ad blind' if they come across such a site.
Try different forms of advertising- Adsense doesn't work on all blogs. Some do better by selling ad space. Choose what works for you. I have a list of many ways you can use to monetize your blog. Choose an option that works for you.
Making money blogging is something achievable if a blogger does things right. By following the above tips you will find out that it is not always elusive.
