How to make money writing a blog


Top 8 Ways bloggers are making money




The art of making money on a website or blog is called "website/blog monetization.” Here are some ways bloggers are making money from their blogs.
  • Selling self-written book(s)/eBooks
  • Selling products related to your blog topic
  • Affiliate Commissions’ Promoting/ information as an affiliate/vendor
  • Promoting Amazon.com books as an Amazon associate
  • Email Marketing

1. Affiliate commissions

Making commissions as an affiliate will depend largely on the type of blog run. In other words your blog topic can increase the amount of Affiliate selling opportunities you have or decrease them. If you want to find affiliate options for your blog topic, just go to Google and type your blog topic +affiliate program Example = Jamaica+affilate program Or check out commission www.junction.com

2. Selling products related to your blog topic

Let’s say you run a blog about beading. You could sell beads and beading related products from your blog. This is more like a hobby business blog.

3. Clickbank.com



www.clickbank.com

Clickbank.com is mostly an affiliate website. However I have listed clickbank.com separate from the affiliate section because there are two ways to use clickbank.com

Click bank as a Vendor

Post your own digital products and allow other bloggers/website owners to promote this product for you on their blogs or websites.

Click bank as an Affiliate

Promote digital products of others on your blog and make monthly affiliate commissions. Visit www.clickbank.com

4. Amazon.com

You can sell amazon.com books as an associate/affiliate. Visit www.amazon.com and create an associate account. Then follow the steps to put the html code on your blog to show single books or many books at the same time. Be sure to choose books that are related to your blog topic.

5. Self-written books and eBooks

Your own self written books are the best way to monetize your blog when it is new. The reason is, when you first start blogging, you won’t be getting much traffic. The upside is people will be visiting your blog looking for information, on your blogs topic. When you offer blog visitors more information in the form of one of your books/eBooks, chances are you will make the sale. See how that all works out nicely?

6. Promoting your own blog products

Say I enjoy making Jewelry out of natural products. I could promote some Jewelry making tools and some of my handmade wooden Jewelry from my blog. It doesnt necessarily have to be jewelry that you promote, it could be anything related to your hobby/business blog. Could be hand made dog collars, handmade picture frames etc. The great thing about your hand made items is that you can then go and promote them on www.etsy.com too. Etsy is a market place for handmade crafts.

7. Email marketing

Email marketing is one of the leading ways people are making money with their blogs online. One great website to visit if you intend to market via email is www.Aweber.com, they offer some great tips advice and services to help bloggers market their products and services via email marketing.

What does "Organic email marketing mean?"

Organic email marketing is when Blog visitors subscribe to your blog, each time you put out new content through your blog post, and make special offers to your email subscribers, and or give free tips and advice on your blogs topic, your subscribers will get a notification to their email inbox. The basis for making money with "organic" email marketing is that your subscribers already know you and are already interested in your blog Topic. Therefore to make a sale from your blog list is easy as pie, with organic email marketing. Be sure to start building your list by putting a "subscribe" button on your blog. Visit www.aweber.com for superior blog subscription tools. Many people on line buidl great email lists through aweber.

8. Combination blog monetization

"
"Combination" blog monetization is the best way to monetize your blog and make cash. Do not restrict your blog to only one way of making money. Offer various products, and books/eBooks on your blog to maximize your selling opportunities, and catch the attention of site visitors with various tastes.

What about Adsense?

Adsense is a form of blog monetization that many bloggers online have gotten rich! However only if your blog domain name is over say 8 years old, and has a lot of content and pages will your blog make substantial money from adsense. Caution: You cannot use clickbank /adsense, or any other third party coding to your wordpress.com (free) blog. Please read wordpress.com terms of service before you begin blogging. If you violate their terms your blog can suddenly disappear. Visit https://www.google.com/adsense/app?hl=en_US#home to learn more
