by Ishan on August 18, 2010 · 9 comments

Are you interested in making money blogging?

You can use it to pay bills, shop for things and even make a healthy living without all the tensions of a job.

And guess what, anyone can make money online. Yep, from 9 year olds to 60+ year old. All you need is knowledge and a good topic to write about(and some other things, but they are not that important as those two!).

What Is Needed To Make Money Blogging?

You will need:

  1. A Blog: Well, if you are looking to make money blogging, a blog is most important thing you’ll need.
  2. Traffic: A lot of traffic is needed to make some serious money. Yep, you can sell things without much traffic but it is going to be more difficult!
  3. Advertisers: Advertisers will pay you to keep their ads on your blog.
  4. Payment System: A payment system allows advertisers and ad networks to pay you money. PayPal is most popular payment system, so better to get a PayPal account.

Different Ways To Make Money From Your Blog

Here are different ways to make money from your blog:

  1. Cost Per Click Ads: You place ads on your blog and for each click, you get paid.
  2. Cost Per Mile Ads: Just like Cost Per Click ads but you get paid for every 1000 ad views.
  3. Cost Per Action Ads: You place ad/link on your blog and get paid whenever a visitor clicks that link and buys a product.
  4. Pop Ups: The “evil” ads. They may be Cost Per Click or Cost Per Mile. They are automatically displayed in a new window when someone visits your blog.
  5. Sponsored Posts: Advertiser pays you to write a review of his product. You get paid per post instead on the basis of clicks etc.
  6. Selling Products: Selling own products is one of the best(and most hard) way to make money. You can sell you own ebook, software or even physical products.
  7. Membership Program: Membership programs require constant work but can make a lot of money as the fee is normally monthly and will not stop like other methods.
  8. Freelancing: Freelancing is not related directly to blogging but it is one thing that many people(we too) have had success with.

Hi YoungChizi,
Ishan is at university where the wi-fi access is out of commission! I notice you use Blogspot and they have a pretty good list of help documents.
So key in your search terms at http://www.google.com/support/blogger/?hl=en

You can also do regular Google searches but include the word Blogger or Blogspot to avoid any WP posts.

Third party services like Adsense provide the code to generate your ads. This post on my blog tells you how to put ads between posts:
Adsense Nonsense: When you display too many ads. You can browse other topic about Blogspot.

It's a tough game to sustain I would say. I mean, it may be so damn easy to get to your first four figure month via some link sales, ads and sponsored posts but soon you lose out unless you keep innovating. If you have some products, services attached to your blog, you will sustain.

There are so many ways you can make money through the Internet. I have thought about creating iPhone apps but at the moment I don't have enough money to do this. iPhone apps can truly make you a lot of money but you of course first need to develop the app, which usually costs a lot of money.

The thing that works the best for me is sponsored posts. I reackon they account for over 90% of my income.
