How do people make money off blogs?
It’s pretty simple once you get the gist of it (I didn’t say easy; it’s just simple to understand). There are three basic ways to monetize your blog – Affiliate Programs, Private Advertisers, Google Adsense. Affiliate Programs and Private Advertising have always made me more money than Adsense, but Adsense is a great program if you are in the right niche. Study successful bloggers paying attention to how they’ve set up their blogs. If you follow successful people you’ll get quicker results. Then you just need the right tools to speed things up and get visitors to go to your website. Anyway good luck Emma. Just keep pushing forward and working hard. I’m sure it’s just a matter of time before you start seeing some positive results.
Finding the income sources is the easy part, developing a following of regular visitors (the ad revenue earning traffic) is the tedious part. By just pasting some code into your site and signing up at google, your site starts automatically displaying ads relevant to the page content (as guessed by their computer) these adsense ads are some of the lowest forms of advertising. Established important blogs receive compensation for reviews and endorsements, blogs with good traffic levels can sell blogroll links to sites seeking seo backlinks. Affiliate marketing links for products that match the theme of the blog can pay $4 to $100 for each purchase made by the visitor.
This site explains how to make money with blogs, afiliates, ads, articles, etc. I thought it was a scam by the way the site look but its pretty legit. Just take to time and watch the instructional videos and you’ll be okay. I make a couple hundred dollars a week depending how much effort i put into it that week, you know!
