Blogging to Make Online Income

Internet opens up a world of opportunity and resources that otherwise would have been impossible so why don’t your take advantage of this. There are several programs which can make your money and build passive income.

I started making money online using Google Adsense program in 2004 when I was admitted to that program. Later I started diversifying to Affiliate programs, pay per lead program several other online money making programs which earns me to make a good amount of money online.  One of my favorite ways to increase income to my earning is blogging. I run and maintain several blogs which is bring me in couple of thousands per month and blogs or web logs is one of the hottest trend going on the web today. It seems like every internet marketer is doing to earn some money online. A web log is defined as a online dairy where the owner of the blog writes about this business or topic of interests.

An active blogger posts several posts a week on niches which he or she is comfortable writing and is an expert in that niche. Before start your online venture understand which area you are comfortable and expert and is it able to write 100’s and 100’s of posts about that subject. If you can then start a blog online and start posting interesting posts about that subject.

Before starting a blog you need to find a domain name for your blog which should be closing related to your niche. I recommend to have a keyword rich domain name, For example if you are planning to write about technology I would Advice to have a name like www. mytechtips.com or www. mytechblog.com having these names is easy to remember for a reader when he do the revisit your blog. After you have decided about the name look for a web hosting company who can host your blog at affordable rates and keep running your blog 24/7 with any trouble. You can Google online for cheap web hosting companies , usually a hosting company charges between $ 7 to $15 a month to host a small web site. If are can’t make a decision about which hosting company is good or bad. There are several web hosting reviews website where you can make comparison about the hosting packages and you can choose one of them.

Once you are done with the hosting issue you can download the Free Word Press into your site and start blogging. Word Press has several themes to choose from. If you find difficulty in understanding and maintain the Word Press program I recommend downloading Gobala Krishnan’s EasyWordPress where he educates you how to use WordPress and make money with Google Adsense.  Also you can hire a web developer to design you blog with the theme you like, also there are several word press themes available online. The advantage of having a web developer is you can customize the blog according to your choice.

Once that blog setup is done you can apply for Google Adsense it may take couple of days to review your blog and get a response from Google. Once you are admitted to the Adsense Program you can generate code and place it on your web pages with different ad format.

The challenge for any blogger is to write posts with interesting content. So to be successful blogger you need to added unique and quality information on your blog at least 3-4 times a day for couple of months. Start of with articles which can write about your niches and once you are out of ideas you can visit other website and article directories where people have written about the same niches and rewrite those articles in your own words. Some other ways to added content is write reviews about products and services in your industry, visit other blog which is in your niche and read their archives and get some idea from it and write about it. Find free products and information about your niche from other places on the web and post it. Add current events happening in your niches. Take interview of people who are expert in your niches and post it on your blog. These are few tips on how to you would be to write blog posts if you are out of ideas.

Adding blog posts for a while will be a daunting task and you won’t find much traffic as well unless you site is been indexed by search engines. For some people this phrase could be frustrating and they finally give up. But I recommend don’t waste the time your spend all these days to build  up your blog hang in there and start adding more content. A good blog at at-least 100 pages to get a 20-30 visitors a day which is not a lot of traffic. If you add at least 3 pages a day for at least 6 months you will be having 540 pages of content which a good amount of page which can get you a decent traffic as well as a good page rank.

Once your blog is established you can add affiliate program link and add products and services which is related to your niche from www.cj.com www.shareasale.com etc which can also bring you some passive income in the long run. You can add Text links on to your blog though text link brokers I high recommend Text-link-broker.com, once you are admitted to their program you would be placing text links from advertisers on your blog and start earning a recurring monthly income.

There are other ways to monetized your blog site with programs like Kontera, Chitika  and more which will also generate you some small monthly income online.

You can have a advertisement page on your blog where you can list the price you charge for each banner or text on your blog and talk directly to advertisers who is interested in placing an ad on your blog.

There are several bloggers who do this to make money online. So there is no secret or hidden thing in making money online with blogging.
