Make Money Blogging

Want to make money blogging?

The best way to make money from blogging is to build your traffic by writing excellent content and developing a relationship with your readers. It takes time, but if you are consistent and committed to the work, you can make money.

These are just a few of the ways you can make money blogging:

Use Ad Networks

Ad networks offer ads which you can post on your blog and earn money when readers “click through” and take action on an offer. The most popular ad networks are Google Ads and the Lijit Network. The amount you make will be determined by the amount of traffic you have and whether or not the ads are a good fit for your audience.

Use Affiliate Marketing

Another way to make money from your blog is to advertise products for other companies and make a percentage of your sales. Some of the companies that I use:

Logical Media-Post coupons, restaurant deals and special offers for companies. Payment is made 45 days after you reach a certain amount of sales.

Escalate Media-Similar to Logical Media, but payment is always made within 15 days for the previous months sales.

My Savings-Similar to Logical and Escalate, but they have some unique offers and higher payouts on some offers.

Share A Sale-Sign up with companies in the Share A Sale Network and earn a commission on sales and leads generated by your blog.

Social Spark- Write sponsored reviews and posts for companies with Social Spark. Pay starts at $5 per post, but increases as your traffic increases.

Amazon.com- Promote products and receive a percentage of your sales.

The best plan is to be selective about the offers you post. I do not post any offer on The Peaceful Mom that I would not personally use, unless I think it represents an exceptional value for my readers. Reader trust is more important to me than the fact that I can make a few dollars selling something.

Sell eBooks

Another great way to make money is by writing ebooks. The most economical way to create an ebook is to write it yourself and publish it as a pdf. You can read Amy’s series How To Write An Ebook here for a step by step tutorial. Once the book is written, you can set up a sales page on your blog and refer readers to it through a side bar ad.

Making money blogging may seem easy, but it does require some hard work and consistency. Try some of the avenues listed above, but remember that your content is what matters.
