Alright, the truth is it’s very difficult to make millions from blogging; they are some million dollar bloggers out there; but guess what they got lucky! 1 out of every 10,000 blogs gets lady luck on their side and the other 9,999…well they’ve got to partner up with Mr. Hard work or they will fade into oblivion. But like I said with a little hard work you can generate an income just from blogging, I will tell you the 3 main ways, but before I do I must warn you, it is a long process; money cannot be made over night, months or even years. Lets go
Promoting affiliate: An affiliate product is an item produced and delivered by someone else. All you have to do is insert the product on your website or a link to the products website, recommend the product and if a sale is reached due to your recommendation…hello commission.
www.clickbank.com and www.cj.com are two popular websites to get your affiliate promoting on.
Monetizing Traffic: If you can attract visitors to your site, you can turn traffic into $$$. The most popular way = Google Adsense Ads. Adsense does not typically produce large revenue for small websites with low visitation, so if your planning to make some big bucks from Adsense, be prepared to create a large website with countless amount of pages.
You can also strike up a deal with private advertising clients to display their ads on your website. Then the complex part comes into play, how you get paid
CPC (Cost Per Click)
CPM (Cost per 1,000 page views)
PPC (Pay Per Call)
PPL (Pay Per Lead)
CPA (Cost Per Action)
I’ll get into these different payment methods on another post because frankly I’m Tired
Selling Your Own Product: You have a blog/website already, take advantage of it and sell your own products. Here you will need to have an effective way of marketing them, and once you figure that out; they’ll sell like cold lemonade on a hot summer day. Ebooks, Audios, and Videos usually does well on blogs. It would be wise to sell furniture of your blog, stick to strictly informative material that has connections to your niche.
