Make Money Blogging 101 - What Every Blogger Needs to Know in Order to Make Big Money With a Blog
By David S Eisner
There are 3 basic rules to make money blogging. These are simple but complicated in their own right, because they can and should be expanded upon over and over again. Obviously, if you want to be super successful, you're going to have to look into these rules a much deeper, but hopefully this will get you started.
See, I was just like you. A blogger with something to talk about. But I needed money too. We can't just sit in our basements writing all day and expect the cash to flow. That's not how it works.
But what I realized was that the more people who read my blog, the more influence I could have and the more money I could make. That's a win-win situation for everybody. If my blog was just sitting there and nobody was reading it, I wouldn't make any money and nobody would be effected by the words on the page.
So the first rule to make money blogging is: You need traffic/visitors/readers, whatever you want to call it. If you don't have people coming to your blog, then you have nothing but some words on a page that nobody will ever see.
Getting traffic is no easy thing. You can pay for it... but is that really the type of traffic you want to drive to your blog? The absolute best traffic that you can get is from the "natural" search engine listings on Google. You are literally catching people in the act of looking for information. When they find your website, you will be johnny on the spot with the info they were looking for.
Of course, getting on the first page of Google is complicated. But once you learn how to do it correctly, you actually have the upper hand! Because Google absolutely loves blogs. They look at blogs as providing specialized information that their customers are looking for. So you're on the right track. Once you figure out the search engine optimization part, you're way down that track, headed for the gold.
The second rule to make money blogging is: You need great content. You've heard it before, content is king. Really, I think it's one of the 3 kings here, but that's just semantics. But this shouldn't be a problem. You wanted to write a blog in the first place. If you're not really wanting to write, that's not a problem either - there are plenty of cheap workers who will write content for you. Either way, your blog will need great content so Google AND your human visitors will love your website.
The third rule to make money blogging is: You need to monetize your website. Well, duh, you want to make money. So you have to figure out a way to generate income from your visitors. There are 1000 ways to do this. You can sell your own product, sell somebody else's, or even put AdSense on your website so if people click on ads, you get paid.
Out of the 3 of these, there isn't 1 that is the most important. They're all integral parts of the process and you have to do the best you can to maximize and optimize all the of the rules. For example, you can monetize and write content all you want, but if you don't have readers, do you really have anything at all? If you have traffic and content but you haven't figured out a way to turn those readers into traffic, now what do you have? A bunch of satisfied readers and an empty wallet.
So you need to do all 3. And if you're going to make a truckload of money, you need to understand them deeply and implement the CORRECT strategies for success.
