How you can make money on your blog. How to make money on a blog? Best ways to monetize

Good afternoon, dear visitors. Today I decided to write a detailed guide on how to make money on a blog. In this article I will try to cover this topic in as much detail as possible.

I think it is important for many of the readers to understand that I have real weight in this direction. So start with my story: “ “. From it you can find out the sequence of my actions, which ultimately made me a successful blogger.

The main advantages of making money on a blog

First of all, I would like to talk about some of the advantages of this.

Let's start with the fact that making money from blogging is, first of all, freedom. Why is that? Yes, because most bloggers write on topics close to their hearts. For us, this kind of work is a hobby. I’m writing an article now, and I like it. I like that after publication they will say to me: “Thank you, you helped me a lot.”
Another important advantage of this “job” is the fact that you are your own boss. Need a day off? Please! Do you want to work at a time that suits you? No problem! Although, this is not a plus for everyone. Some people still lack motivation and self-discipline.
You can make money with a blog from anywhere in the world, as long as you have the Internet.
A blog is a good tool to support a business, for example, to attract customers.
Many freelancers create online diaries to attract clients. I already wrote about this in this article: ““.
Another important point, which for me is the most significant: After some time, on average 2-3 years, every blogger who kept his diary wisely will receive a good one.
You can start a blog without significant financial investments: 200-300 rubles per month for hosting and that’s it.

Who pays bloggers and for what?

My friends often ask me this question. Let me finally tell everyone where the money comes from.

So, first of all, you need to understand that bloggers get paid for advertising. This means that a blog, from the point of view of earning money, is an advertising platform.

All you have to do is register with any advertising network, place advertising materials, and you can start earning income.

5 ways to make money blogging

I think now you will be interested in learning about what types of advertising on blogs there are and which of them are the most profitable.

#1. Partnership programs

I'm sure many have already heard about this. If someone doesn’t, then I’ll explain again: Affiliates are earnings from recommendations.

Let's say I have design lessons. They cost 1500 rubles. If you become my partner and a sale is made based on your recommendation, you will receive a 50% reward.

But how can this be related to blogging? Yes, in the most direct way, because on the blog we share our experience and our results. And if you write an article in which you talk about the benefits of any service or product, then some of your readers, following the recommendation, will also want to place an order and follow your recommendation link. In the end, everyone will be happy: the store will receive the client, the client will benefit from the product, and you will earn a little extra money.

#2. Your own information products

In essence, these are the same affiliate programs, only now you advertise your products and at the same time find new partners who will subsequently advertise you. In order to create a truly valuable product, you need to have some knowledge. For example, a beekeeper's blog could sell video tutorials on how to build a hive, how to properly care for bees, how to properly collect honey, and so on.

Personally, I like this method the most, since in the future I will ultimately receive the most income from it. I write more about my experience in the information business in this article: ““.

#3. contextual advertising

You can observe this phenomenon directly in this article. To earn money this way, you need to: register with any advertising network, for example, GoogleAdsense. And then place the advertising code (you can do this in 2 minutes). Some users will click on advertisements while reading the article. Typically 1-2% of visitors click on it. For every click you will receive money. With an attendance of 1000 people, the average income will be 10 - 12 thousand rubles. We will talk about this in more detail in other articles.

#4. Banner advertising

You can also see it on my blog. For example, in the sidebar. It works as follows: You create positions on your blog where anyone can purchase advertising or you place advertising banners yourself.

Previously, many considered this method to be additional, so to speak, to support the pants. Today, using new special add-ons, you can get no less from banners than from other ways of making money on a blog.

#5. Advertising articles and selling links

These two ways of monetizing a blog are extremely petty and, in fact, you will not earn anything from them. If, of course, the blog is visited by 15 thousand people a day, you can still make money by selling articles. Well, you should generally forget about selling links, firstly, it harms blog promotion, and secondly, it costs pennies.

In general, to make money on these things, you just need to register in special services. You can find sites for selling links on Google, but for selling articles I can recommend Miralinks. Oh yes. This thing works like this: We register on one of the article or link aggregators, then we receive an application, post a link or article on our blog and receive money. Everything is very simple.

Choosing a blog topic

Well, in short, I can say the following: you should definitely devote a sufficient amount of time to choosing a topic. Don't rely on your personal opinion like, "I think people like studying shrimp." Understand that there are billions of people in the world and everyone thinks differently. This means that in order to know for sure whether any topic will be in demand, you need to use special analytical services.

The best option is to choose a topic so that you like it and at the same time, so that it is popular on the Internet. This symbiosis guarantees that you will receive both pleasure and income from the blog.

How to create a blog

Is it possible to make money blogging on the Internet? I have already answered this question: Of course you can! But first you need to understand how this happens, then choose a good topic and, most importantly, create it. We have already completed the first two stages, all that remains is to understand how to create a blog? In fact, everything is very, very simple: just watch a video course and in 2-3 hours you will have your own blog.

TOP 5 reasons preventing you from making money on a blog

There can be many reasons, let's look at them in order.

Reason 1. Laziness

Well, I think there’s no need to explain anything here. Making money on a blog for the first six months, or maybe even a year, is a lot of work. After all, initially you need to get involved in the topic, then understand what and how it works here. Only then, when the blog is already generating the first income, will it be possible to delegate some of the responsibilities and be a little lazy.

From all this we should conclude: if you want a freebie, then you won’t be able to make money on a blog.

Reason 2. Misunderstanding

Oh, how often I see active bloggers who have been writing a new article every day for years. And in the end they receive 200-500 visitors per day. Why is this happening? Do you think they were just unlucky? Not at all, the problem is that just writing articles on free topics that you think other people are interested in is a useless endeavor. Anyone who wants to make money by blogging should know the basic rules of writing articles.

Don't be alarmed, it's easier than it might seem. Remember school or university, where you also had to follow a number of rules when completing some work. Was it difficult? Set aside 2-3 days, understand how it’s done and write articles for yourself.

Reason 3. Haste

How can a beginner make money on a blog? No way 🙁 The first income from the blog, if you follow all the rules, can be expected in six months to a year. And in a couple of years you can reach 50 - 100 thousand rubles, and this is using only contextual advertising. And if you combine all monetization methods correctly, your income can be infinitely large.

Let's take me for example. You can look at the “my business” section. It shows that in the first six months, in general, I managed to earn more than 50,000 rubles. And over the next three months the same amount. This means that I am progressing and there is even more income ahead of me.

Reason 4. Reluctance to learn

You shouldn’t think that you are the smartest and you shouldn’t rely only on your knowledge. The blogosphere does not stand still; search engines periodically update algorithms and add various filters. What could be done yesterday may be prohibited today.

The blog platform, add-ons, audience interests and much more are also updated. This means you always need to be aware of events. Find several sources of new information for yourself. These could be some forums, other blogs, or just news sites. Read them at least periodically. And it’s best to find yourself some smart mentor who will notify you of any changes at the right time. The same goes for updates to blog topics. You need to write not only about old well-worn topics, but also try to write about new events, new technologies and new solutions to old problems.

Reason 5. Greed

I will say this: creating a blog for free yourself to make money is quite possible. Why, “quite”, I did that myself. But the fact is that to achieve a goal faster, and for many of us the goal is to earn money, it will not be enough to just write articles. You also need to spend a little on promotion, design, someone might want to hire a copywriter. Of course, all this is not necessary. But for the best result, you still have to spend money somewhere.

Don't spare money, always improve your blog if necessary. If you really feel sorry for your money, then don’t feel sorry for the money you already received from the blog itself - there will definitely be some. For example, I sometimes feel like one of the car enthusiasts who endlessly loves his swallow. Only in my case, the swallow is a blog. The more you put into it, the better it will perform.

Where can I learn how to make money on a blog?

In paragraph 6.4, I mentioned that in order to achieve success as quickly as possible, you need to find yourself a mentor. Agree, the work will go faster if you are helped by a person who will step by step check the progress of the work, motivate you to take action, help correct mistakes and share a summary of the latest and most important news.

A good mentor is obliged to help: choose a topic, set up all the technical aspects, teach how to write articles correctly and, most importantly, show how to automate all this work.

So, as a more or less experienced blogger, I can give some recommendations.

School of Bloggers

The first is learning from a person who taught me a lot. I won’t say that to everything, but to a lot, that’s for sure. His name is Alexander Borisov. And I wouldn’t have said a word about him if I hadn’t seen the real results of his students and the unreal results of himself. Let me tell you more about him and his school.

In general, A. Borisov is a man who has been running his own blog for 5 years and earns very good money with it. I won’t tell you the numbers, otherwise you won’t believe it. The main thing is that he has enough to live on. About six months ago, he created his own school and called it “School of Bloggers.”

The main goal of the school is to help you create a blog that will be visited by thousands, or even tens of thousands of people a day. And the most important task: to help you make money in this business.

What exactly does the blogger school provide?

First of all, this is not a kindergarten. No one will chase you, and especially no one will do the work for you. They will help you a lot, namely:

Choose the right niche;
Perform all technical settings according to the latest search engine requirements;
Select affiliate programs that will provide the most profit in your area;
They will help you create a blog structure (semantic core) - without this there is absolutely no way, I wrote about it here: “ “;
They will teach you how to write articles correctly and check existing ones;
They will teach you how to properly promote your blog;

I can write a lot more about it, but it’s better for you to look at the description of the school yourself. To do this, just go here. If you still have questions, you can. I will try to answer within one hour, or maybe faster.

Conclusion + Video on the topic

Actually, I told you everything I know about making money on a blog. Perhaps somewhere I went too far with the information, but still I wanted to expand on this topic as much as possible. I am sure that many people had questions while reading the article, you can ask them in the comments, I will try to answer everything. I also want to thank everyone who was able to read the material to the end, and if he was really able to help someone, then you generally made me happy.

Best regards, Sergey Ivanisov.

How much can you earn from a blog? This is a question that falls under the category of answering a question with a question. How much are you willing to work to earn money? But also, are you ready to learn some of the intricacies of maintaining and presenting information to readers and visitors?

Good day, dear readers and visitors. Today I would like to talk about the topic - How much can a beginner earn on a blog?

This is quite an important question for many new bloggers, because many of them start their blogs in the hope of making money and doing it as quickly as possible.

In today’s article I would like to talk about ways to make money with a blog, and of course, we’ll talk about the timing of maintaining it so that you can earn money. Also, to all this it will be possible to add one very important point, which will either speed up the speed of earnings or slow it down indefinitely.

Let's imagine for a moment that you have already created your blog and it is already, say, 3 months old. You have 50 visitors per day from search engines, which is not bad at all for such a period of time, but now about something else.

You have 50 daily new people and you want to make money from them. How will you do this and will you do it at all?

In fact, it is better not to start earning in some ways before certain indicators of site traffic, not only because you will not be able to earn much, but also because you will not like how much you will earn with such a visit.

First of all, in order to make good money on a blog, you need to be patient, because blogging will take a long time, perhaps more than one year, so you should be prepared for long periods of time.

How much can a beginner earn on a blog? This question does not have a definite answer, since earnings depend entirely on the personality of the blogger, the topic of the resource and the amount of time devoted to the project.

In fact, this is just a small part of what a blogger needs to achieve his goal, and in our article, to make money on his own resource.

Ways to earn money

The time has come to discuss ways that will bring money to the project.

Next we will talk about the opportunities that the Internet provides for receiving money using your computer and information project. But, it’s worth remembering one thing: your earnings depend entirely on visitors.

If the number of visitors to your project is a couple of dozen people per day, then you shouldn’t count on millions; you can’t even count on thousands a month.

In general, continue reading and you will understand how you can start making money at any time on your own blog.

Selling links

I put selling links in first place not because it will bring in enough money, in fact, quite the opposite.

Now, after numerous updates to search engines, it has become quite risky to sell links from articles, since for them you can get filters and other blocking of the project for a certain time, and sometimes, it happens forever, because the author simply has no idea what to do, to get out, let’s say from the Minusinsk filter.

Roughly speaking, once a month you can sell a couple of links from articles or mentions of sites, but you shouldn’t count on large sums, you can earn about 500 rubles in a good situation, but it’s far from a fact that someone will want to buy from a young project links.

Well, if we look at it globally, this method of earning money is not suitable for us, but we don’t have to completely write it off.

Partnership programs

Depending on the topic of your resource, you can choose a couple of services for cooperation.

If you run a culinary blog, then for example, you can use an affiliate program for online grocery delivery.

If you are running a project on a medical topic, then it is quite possible to use pharmacies as partners. Well, you get the point.

If your topic is making money on the Internet, or SEO, then it is quite possible to get rich by collaborating with the necessary services.

To summarize, affiliate programs are an ideal start for any newbie, whether with or without a blog, so it’s worth thinking about it and starting working with affiliate programs using articles from your resource.

You should be careful, because first you need to secure the system, namely, hide outgoing links, for this you should use the lesson below

If you have made up your mind and decided to make money on affiliate programs using a blog, then I can recommend an affiliate program, which you can register for below.

ADMITAD - aggregator, more than 700 proposals for cooperation

Services

Do you have a blog, but you don’t know how to monetize it and get at least some money online? It is possible to provide your own services to people.

It can be absolutely anything, depending on what you know how to do.

You can offer the services of writing articles, working with a website, installing plugins, working with codes, design, translations, consultations, advice, in general there are simply countless possibilities that you can do.

Your blog is the business card of any person and has some difference from the site, so it’s worth taking advantage of this and earning money with your skills, and if you perform high-quality services, then they will talk about you and believe me, those to whom you provided the service will recommend you, and recommendations in the digital age are expensive.

Advertising Yandex, Google

Well, it’s probably time to talk about the most common way to make money on the Internet with your own blog, namely advertising from the largest search engines in our native RuNet.

As the practice of many bloggers shows, advertising slows down the development of a blog, so it’s worth considering that if you put advertising early, you can slow down the blog at the level of a baby.

In fact, traffic is not the only thing that prevents you from making money on advertising; there is one more point with which many will probably agree. Earnings from advertising in the early stages are simply meager and in the end you will be completely disappointed.

Do you want to earn 100 rubles a month from advertising? Then place it. If, however, you can be patient and develop your resource, then it’s worth waiting. The more targeted visitors come to your project, the greater the chance of getting a click on the advertisement, and thereby earning money.

Sit and think carefully about advertising, namely, it’s worth thinking about whether it’s worth slowing down the development of the project and getting 100 rubles a month, or whether this is not the money you came for and you will develop and eventually get many times more .

How much can a beginner earn on a blog?

In general, it’s time to talk closely about the amount of money from the blog. It seems to me that you should have noticed what I wrote, that no one can give an answer, because the topics are different, the visits are different and, accordingly, everyone can monetize the project in different ways.

In general, you can earn very good money on a blog, but not for a beginner, because there is simply nothing to earn money from.

Is your attendance less than 500 people per day? Then you can receive, in principle, 10,000 rubles, but this is far from a fact and depends on the topic of your resource.

Many factors will influence the traffic and earnings of your resource, but for starters, it can be noted that traffic and earnings and that’s all will depend on the amount of information.

If you have 30 articles on your blog, then what kind of income can we talk about? I think that you are a fairly sensible person and understand perfectly well that it is far from easy to receive money from the fact that there is simply no one to pay for services and affiliate offers, I’m just keeping quiet about the fact that naturally there is no one to click on advertisements, judging by the statistics of 3% people click on ads.

With 100 people visiting per day, there will be one click on the advertisement, and this will be equal to approximately 1-2 rubles, and in a month you can get 30-50 rubles. That's all.

I would advise you to continue to develop the resource and not think about making any money from your blog for now. You can work on affiliate programs in the article, but you should not hope for quick money, this should not drive your project. First of all, any blog and resource on the Internet should help people solve their problem.

Let's summarize the article

Well, we’ve talked about the topic, How much can a beginner earn on a blog, now it’s time to sum up the article.

We have discussed some ways that you can bring in money thanks to your project, but now your task will be to choose the right one and alternately connect earning modules to your blog.

If I started right now, I would start with affiliate programs, after which I would back it up with services, but under no circumstances would I put advertising on my young project.

Now, for myself, I have set a minimum standard of 500 visits to set the context, but it seems to me that I will reconsider my options to a higher attendance, but that’s how things go.

Don't rush to make money. This is your project, which you give birth to on the virtual web, this is your child, who needs to be raised, educated, introduced to the virtual world of the Internet, taught to earn money.

This is just the bare minimum of what you need to do with your blog. So you should think about your child, do you want to destroy him, or do you need to raise a good and strong project? It's up to you, it's up to you to choose.

I am choosing the path of getting the blog on strong legs; it will be very expensive for me to simply ruin the project. I hope you, too, are far from one of those who can take and destroy their favorite resource.

Well, that’s all for today, my dear readers and visitors, subscribe to blog updates so as not to miss important news about the project. You can also take part in the commentator competition, which takes place monthly on my blog. More details can be found on the competitions page. Thank you for your attention.

Now you know approximately how much you can earn on a blog, but this is not only for a beginner, as get ready for the fact that the first couple of months will bring you absolutely nothing.

Best regards, Sergey Vasiliev

In the modern world, there are wonderful alternatives to everyday work. Such alternative activities can automate the process of making money, plus they can turn into your hobby. Imagine such a pleasant situation - every morning you go to your computer, turn it on and see how much money you earned while you were sleeping. Nice, isn't it? By creating and promoting your blog, this is quite feasible, but only if it has good traffic.

One of the most successful examples of "blogging" is a man named Steve Pavlina. This American runs his own blog, in which he writes about personal development, how to work more productively and, most interestingly, how you can make money on your own blog. Steve Pavlin's blog is very popular in the USA. Brings the author a huge income, amounting to tens of thousands of dollars a month.

Is it possible to create your own blog and earn enough money for a comfortable life? Yes, this is real and has been working for a long time. Many people make good money from their blogs. If you have a desire to create your own blog and make money from it, but have not yet figured out how to do it, then this article will help you find answers to some questions.

The idea of creating your own blog and at the same time the opportunity to earn money from it attracts a large number of people. This idea is quite feasible, but not everyone can do it. About 10% of people manage to earn enough money from their own blog, while the rest remain disappointed. To make money on a blog, you need not only an understanding of how to create it (this is at a minimum), but also the highest dedication. Understanding your topic also plays an important role. By the way, having a basic level of knowledge of HTML won’t hurt either.

For a serious undertaking, the presence of a great desire is necessary. You must have perseverance, patience and a good nervous system. Writing on a blog is an integral part of its existence. To achieve success, you need to do this every day, efficiently and interestingly. The results will not come immediately, it will take an indefinite amount of time - a month, half a year or even a whole year! What result you will have and how long it will take to implement it will depend only on you.

About earnings

You can earn good money only in one case - if your blog is popular and has good traffic. As for posting links, those who want to do this will find you themselves as soon as the blog begins to turn into a serious resource. You can also promote your products, that is, start an information business.

Blog creation

Before you start creating your blog, you need to think through everything carefully. Creating your first and simple blog is quite easy. Start with the topic of your blog; it must be of interest to you. This is very important, since it will be very difficult to write about topics that are not interesting to you. The blog topic must interest readers. It is not necessary to devote it to the most popular topics, such as making money on the Internet. Choose the topic that is of the greatest interest to you, there are a lot of options: sports, flowers, children, cars, cinema, photography and so on.

Ideally, write on a blog as an expert in any subject. By doing this, you will increase the number of readers of your blog in no time. But remember that if you choose a very narrow and specific topic, it will be more difficult to get many readers. Yes, and it is not advisable to work with a large number of topics. It will be difficult to retain the reader, he will not know what to expect from you in the future, and thus there will be few regular visitors.

You have decided on a topic and the question arises, what to do next? How to proceed to the actual physical creation of a blog so that it is available online? There are two ways.

The first option is quite complicated and most likely not suitable for inexperienced users. Briefly it looks like this:

1. Choose a domain for your future blog.

2. Register it with a domain name registrar (that is, buy it). Such as, for example, ru-center.

3. Choose a normal hosting and register on it.

3. Link the domain (register DNS servers). That is, inform the hosting about your registrar, and the registrar about your hosting.

4. Select cms (content management system) and upload it to your hosting after downloading it to your computer from the Internet in the form of a compressed folder.

5. Understand what’s what in cms and only after that can you begin to take the first steps to create your “child”.

This is quite difficult for a beginner, I went through it myself. By the way, regarding cms - choose only WordPress. When you get the hang of it, you can move on to something more powerful. If you understand these five points, then start writing interesting and unique articles. This is how I described the algorithm for creating a blog very compactly. But almost all resources on the Internet are created this way. I don’t recommend going down this path if you don’t know anything about how websites are created. It would be wiser to use the second option.

When creating a blog, pay attention to the uniqueness of the design, choosing a theme (template), try to make it your own. It is also worth paying due attention to the choice of name (domain name). It will not be promising to create your own blog with the domain name myblog.com. This name does not reflect the subject of your resource. It is the name that reflects the whole essence of your blog that carries a significant share of future success, that is, traffic.

After publishing your first posts on the Internet, start attracting an audience with your friends. They will definitely start visiting your blog, and will comment on your articles and leave positive reviews (if the friends are normal). By becoming the first and regular visitors, your friends will be able to refer their acquaintances to you, thereby increasing attendance. Don’t neglect visiting blogs related to your topic. Be active when visiting, leaving interesting comments, and most importantly, don’t forget to leave a link to your page.

So, to make money on a blog you need:

– figure out what’s what and create a blog;

– take measures for promotion; full promotion will take about a year;

– regularly post interesting articles, write for people, not to earn money;

– after 6 months and with relatively good traffic (from 500 per day), take monetization measures.

The key to the success of any blog is high traffic. This can only be achieved by posting interesting, unique and relevant information. Good luck!

In this article, you will learn how to earn income from a personal blog, what tools to use for work, and what financial benefits a beginner can expect. For convenience, we will take a time period of 12 months in our calculations.

How to make money blogging?

If we talk about the most affordable way to earn money for a beginner on the Internet, the idea of blogging immediately comes to mind. However, this is a difficult method. Not every network user has enough time and enthusiasm for such an activity. First of all, you will need to create and set up a personal blog. The owner must decide on its topic and work on the content. New content should be published regularly, not once a month. Otherwise, there is no point in hoping for rapid progress in the matter.

Setting up and starting a blog is not that difficult. Difficulties come precisely when you have to do this on an ongoing basis. Especially if the reader response is not great enough.

It will take time to gain an active audience. However, during this period you cannot expect a miracle by folding your arms. You need to constantly act. On average, it will take a blog owner (who does everything the right way) a year and a half to gain readers and high user traffic through search engines. We would like to draw your attention to the fact that we are talking about beginners trying to realize their plans on their own.

Well, let's get back to the main thing. Do you have enough dedication and desire to finish what you started? Do you have enough time for this? If yes, let's move on to a brief action plan.

Choosing a blog topic

This may have its own difficulties:

It is difficult to predict the tastes of readers. Even if the topic is interesting to you, this does not guarantee anything;
A superficial interest in a topic will sooner or later lead to a dead end. You will have to write a lot and regularly. To do this you need inspiration and a desire to constantly learn something new. Otherwise, the topic will exhaust itself too quickly;
The author must be able to motivate the reader based on the chosen topic;
The chosen topic should be of interest to potential advertisers.

Use the wordstat.yandex.ru service to understand whether the blog is relevant. In the search bar, enter sample topics for future articles. You will see how many people are searching for similar information online.

Also check the relevance of the blog for making money from advertising. Use any search engine (Yandex, Google) and type in the same topics one by one. See what ads appear in the first results for your query (and also on the right). If there is a correspondence with your chosen topic, then everything is fine. It won't be a problem with advertisers. Of course, the cost of advertising can vary greatly, but it’s too early to think about it. Thoughts about money at the very start of blog promotion can ruin even the most avid article writer.

Beginners were unable to make money quickly on blogs. This is not relevant for the first 6-12 months. The blog author must provide high-quality and interesting content, as well as apply methods to increase traffic to the resource. If you approach the matter wisely, everything will be fine. Let's say you have chosen a priority blog topic. What to do next?

What you need to learn to blog

Key points:

At the very beginning, it is enough for a beginner to familiarize himself with the first two points in detail. But if you initially want to make money on your own blog, take the time to fully study all the points. A capable and learning person will achieve greater results. Master the theory and practice. Many nuances of effective blog promotion come with experience.

Tools for making money on a blog

Blog monetization becomes available with a minimum attendance of 100 readers per day. This is where beginners are often plagued by doubts. They think a lot about whether such income is possible in principle, and how to make it happen? The answer is simple: it is possible! And to put all this into practice, you will need tools for working with a blog.

Key:

Yandex advertising network;
Google AdSense advertising network;
Various affiliate programs similar to the chosen blog topic;
Referral system.

Additional tools:

To effectively promote your blog, you can use only key tools. All the rest are optional. A new blog can easily do without the remaining “points”. We will talk about how to correctly use the available tools for working with a blog in the following articles. Now let's get back to the question of earning money.

Success in financial matters directly depends on two main factors: the topic of the blog and its traffic. Regarding the second point, everything is very clear: the more users a resource gets, the greater the chances of making money from advertising/selling services and goods.

The price per click on the advertisement depends on the topic of the blog. A blog owner must hit the mark when choosing a main topic if he wants to make good money from it. It's time to discuss how much a beginner can earn on a personal blog.

Attendance 500 readers per day

A young blog (if it was created less than two years ago) will bring in an income of about $50-70 per month.

Attendance 1000-2000 readers per day

Earnings will range from $300 to $1500 per month. Do not forget that the amount of income directly depends on the cost per click on the advertising banner. If you are using affiliate programs to increase your profits, it follows a similar rule. And if direct customers contact you, the chances of a decent profit will increase.

Attendance of more than 2000 people per day

Accordingly, the minimum income will be from $1,500 per month. In this matter, everything is individual. The more effort you put in, the better. Proper blogging will allow you to beat your competitors and get additional benefits from it.

Now you can get a rough picture of how it works. Be patient, weigh the pros and cons, study, and only after that start realizing your dream.

Greetings, friends!

With the right approach, making money on your own blog is quite possible. The most important thing at the first stage is to properly set up the site so that there are no obstacles to its promotion, concentrate on writing posts and their proper optimization. All this will help you attract visitors. As you know, any traffic can be monetized. There are at least 10 ways to do this.

think in advance about the strategy by which you want to monetize your site (we will talk about ways to make money on the site below);
choose a commercial topic that will bring good profit from advertising;
choose a narrow enough area to fill your niche, but not so narrow that you run out of ideas for posts in a month. You shouldn’t go to the other extreme - choosing an overly competitive niche where there are millions of other similar blogs. If you still choose such a topic, then try to stand out from your competitors in some way and write unique and interesting content that is not yet available on other sites.
Another golden rule is that you should like the topic and be close to your spirit. Only with this approach will blogging not cause you depression and you will not give up blogging too quickly.

How much can a beginner earn on a blog?

Earning money from a blog largely depends on daily traffic and the chosen topic. From my personal experience, I can say that the first few months you have to fill your blog with pure enthusiasm, without expecting a return in monetary terms.

For a young blog (6 months), the income from RTB blocks in YAN is approximately 800-1100 rubles. per month

To start receiving at least some income, you need to have traffic of at least 50-100 people per day. I heard from some bloggers that you have to invest in a blog for free for the first year so that it finally begins to recoup the efforts put into it.

I will share my experience with you. I created this blog in 2015. Having filled it with several articles, I abandoned it after 3 months, since the traffic was not growing at all (there were no more than 30 people per day) and there was practically no income (a few cents were dripping from Google Adsense and some pennies from affiliate programs). And so history repeated itself 2 times. After reading a ton of books on SEO and gaining experience as a copywriter, I realized that I was doing something wrong. The point was that I did not optimize the articles correctly, I chose too competitive queries, as a result they hung far behind the top 100 search engines and brought practically no traffic. In addition, my WordPress blog was poorly configured (due to the use of tags, too many duplicate pages were generated and the site fell under the AGS filter). The lack of results from the invested work gave up completely, but I wanted everything at once. In February 2017, I decided to resume the blog. I had to restore all the articles and sharpen them for other keywords. As a result, traffic immediately began to grow (perhaps it was also due to the fact that the domain left the search engine sandbox, since it was already about 1 year old at that time). I immediately connected Google Adsence so that the blog would not stand idle. In the first month after restoration, the income was about $10 and since then it has been growing every month by an average of 30-40% as traffic increases. After 10 months, the income was $350 in 30 days (about 21,000 rubles). Don't repeat my mistakes and don't waste your time! A blog is a good source of passive income, but it requires playing the long game. I realized this only now, after 2 years of ordeals, trials and experiments :).

How to make money blogging on the Internet: 10 ways

If you don’t know how to make money on your own blog, then I will offer you 10 ready-made options:

Blog or website: which is better for making money?

A blog, unlike a website, is more individual, conducted on behalf of its author, and therefore inspires more trust among readers. There is something intimate and personal in such a presentation of the material, because the author shares his own experience, views on life and opinions. A blogger puts part of his soul into writing each article. Individuality and uniqueness are the main values for readers.

If the author inspires trust and sympathy, and his content is useful and interesting, then visitors will certainly turn into subscribers and regular readers. The blog is optimal for freelancers, politicians, specialists and experts in any narrow professional fields, travelers, information businessmen, creative and public figures, opinion leaders - all those who want to become more recognizable on the Internet, receive an effective tool for attracting clients and an additional source income. On a blog, visitors are much more willing to leave their comments, ask questions to the author, and engage in active discussions.

Websites are devoid of such a component. But they could be better structured. Content can be ordered from copywriters. This option is suitable if you want to create a large project in the form of a traffic site that attracts a large volume of visitors and covers more general topics that do not require expert opinion.

Both versions of Internet projects can be monetized equally.

Where is the best place to blog to make money?

To make money, it is definitely best to place a blog on paid hosting. When choosing free engines, you limit your project’s possibilities for search engine promotion and earnings. To maintain a blog, you can choose any CMS or designer that is convenient for you - umi, wordpress, joomla, wix and others. In my opinion, the WordPress platform is most suitable for bloggers, as it has wide functionality, a simple interface, and endless possibilities for integration with a lot of useful tools.

When choosing hosting, evaluate your real financial capabilities to pay the monthly subscription fee. Many bloggers abandon their projects because they are unable to pay for hosting. At first, you can choose an inexpensive tariff with a minimum amount of disk space (1GB). After your project grows and starts making a profit, you can move to another hosting. Among the many offers from hosting providers, you can find options with a minimum tariff of 60-80 rubles per month (for example, profitserver).

What blogs can you make money on?

When choosing a niche for blogging, you should definitely find out how suitable it is for monetizing traffic. How can I check this?

Check the cost per click for advertisers in Google Adwords and Yandex.Direct for the keywords that you plan to include in the semantic core of your blog. This is especially important if you want to make money mainly from contextual advertising. The higher the cost per click, the greater the publisher's profit. The easiest way to do this is in Yandex. Direct. Create an account, log into your personal account and go to the “Budget Forecast” section. Select regions, several keywords and click on the “Calculate” button.

In accordance with your target audience (gender, age, interests), think about what products, services and services can be offered to your visitors using CPA networks that offer payment for performing a certain action - application, registration, purchase, payment for an order, click and so on.
If you plan to make money on affiliate programs, then find several suitable offers in advance.

If in your chosen topic the cost per click is minimal (less than 1 ruble), there are no advertisers, there are no suitable affiliate programs, the public is not interested in buying goods, then your only methods of monetization are placement of teaser showcases, clickanders, popunders, banners with payment for impressions, not for clicks. However, you should not expect too high earnings with this approach.

Earning money from affiliate programs: blog for traffic monetization

The choice of affiliate programs should be based on your target audience, their interests and purchasing power, as well as the topic of the blog.

Affiliate programs from pharmacies, medical centers, doctor appointment services, online sports stores, and weight loss programs are suitable for a health blog.
On business-related websites you can post information products, bank offers on loans, deposits, cash management services, investment instruments (Forex, binary options, mutual funds, etc.).
For fashion and beauty blogs, product affiliate programs from well-known brands are suitable.
