Blogging From Scratch

So you have your blog all set-up. How do you make money online out of it? For starters, I suggest that you signed up with google adsense which is one of the most popular income source in making money online. But, let me remind you that you will not get a lot of money out of it immediately. You need viewers and useful content in order to get a lot of income. Keep in mind that you do not need to sign up with all the “internet advertisers”, choose whatever you feel best suits your blog.

Pay per click/Pay per impression ads

Google adsense is pay-per-click and pay-per-impression advertising, which means that you’ll be paid if someone clicks your google ad. A word of precaution, do not or never click your own ads or send the link to your friends and ask them to click on it. If you do, you’ll get banned with google adsense for life and all your efforts will go to waste. Google has a very sophisticated algorithm that traces these fraud clicks. Although there are google adsense alternatives like Adbrite and Bidvertiser, Google Adsense is the largest and the most popular.

 

Affiliate ads – If you help sell a product, you’ll get a commission out of it. That’s affiliate marketing. Simple steps in affiliate marketing.

1. Sign up with the affiliate marketing
2. Get your affiliate id or referral id
3. Add the affiliate widget in your blog
4. If the user clicks the product and bought it, you’ll make money
5. End of making money online

Example of Affiliate ads are: Amazon, Ebay

Text link ads – You sell keywords in your website. But the selling of these links are automatically done with the text link network. So no fuss. What it does, the words on your website are link to a specific product and website. If your visitor clicks on it, you’ll make money online. Like the other advertising network, never click on your own ad.

Example: Kontera, Text link ads

Review – Review can make money a lot based on the popularity and reputation of your blog. Chances are, if you are pretty popular in a blogging world, you could charge as high as $500 per review because a lot of people believe in you. But do not just accept any review requests that you feel like will harm you and your blog.s

Private Advertisers – Getting private advertisers when your blog is just starting out is difficult. Wait until your blog has gained an audience and popularity in the blogging world. This is the best make money online source.
