A Blog Isn't Just For Christmas
I was watching the news on TV last night and there was a
warning about buying puppies as Christmas presents. There's
nothing worse than visiting the kennels in the new year and
seeing all those unwanted dogs that were chosen as presents
because they were so cute at the time. It reminded me of people
who start a blog in the hope of making some money online only to
give up after a few days or weeks when things don't work out.
The average blogger makes around $20 to $50 per month. So, if
that is the average, it stands to reason that some people make
less than that and some people make more. The amount of potential
income that can be generated by blogging depends entirely upon
your ability to build a loyal audience of people who have money
to spend.
There is no point in creating a blog and then looking for an
audience. Your first task is to identify a hungry market and
provide it with high quality information. Once you have
established your blog and created some interesting content, your
next task is to attract your hungry audience to your blog. There
are many ways of attracting traffic to a blog site including
banner adverts, ezine advertising, pay per click traffic, links
fro other web sites and submitting your site to the specialist
blog search engines.
There are literally hundreds of blog sites that lay desolate
and abandoned like an old frontier town with tumbleweeds blowing
through on the breeze. Their owners failed to identify a hungry
market, they failed to attract visitors or they simply gave up
posting fresh new content to their blogs.
Blogs are dynamic web sites, they require time and attention.
Search engines love them because they are frequently updated with
fresh new content. People love them because they regularly
provide new and interesting information. But you have to persist,
just like any other business, online or offline, you have to work
at building up your content, building up an audience of loyal
readers and creating a portfolio of products and services that
will appeal to your readers and generate some income.
There are many ways of generating income from your blog.
Several people have created successful niche sites that offer
product reviews including books, software, videos, DVDs and other
popular products. Other bloggers earn their income from the sale
of advertising space and yet others generate income through pay
per click systems such as Google's Adsense programme.
There is now another way of building a profitable blog. A
brand new hosted blog service - http://www.Blog4Cash.com has married a fully featured
blogging service with a two tier affiliate programme thus
allowing you to build up a residual income from everyone who
signs up through your referral. This provides a great opportunity
to build up a regular income to supplement your regular blog
profit.
So remember, to become a truly successful blogger you must
take a long term view and seek to provide interesting content for
a hungry market with money to spend. Don't expect to achieve
profit overnight and plan to build a portfolio of income streams
some of which have a residual element that will provide you will
a recurring income.
