Making Money by Blogging

One of the surest ways to make money by blogging is to join an affiliate blogging group such as Today, LinkedIn, or PayPerPost. These groups offer an opportunity to bloggers to make some serious money by blogging about a plethora of different subjects including opinions about current events, entertainment news and reviews about products and services


Affiliate blogging groups make money by placing targeted ads and text links on your site and then split the revenue earned from these ad placements with the blogger. Product and service reviews are the type of blog posts most valued by affiliates since it allows them to directly target a specific buyer with a specific product.

If you are not the type to want to share a piece of a profit pie with an affiliate, then you can strike out on your own and become an independent blogger and appeal directly to advertisers on your own. Owning your own site (or at least having your own blog) and selling space to advertisers is also a good way to make money by blogging. The catch is that you have to work a little harder and appeal to the right advertisers and build up a readership by yourself without the help of a built in readership base that an affiliate could give you. On the plus side, if you do enjoy any amount of success, you do not have to share it with some hosting company.

Another way you can make money by blogging is to simply sign up for a type of Pay Per Click Advertising which places relevant text ads or text based links directly into your blog. PPC Ads such as Google's AdSense work by having bots crawl your blog for relevant keywords and then placing either small text based ads on a space of your choosing, or by creating static links directly within the blog. The catch with PPC ads, is that you need to have a significant amount of traffic on your site in order to enjoy any serious revenue.
