Learn How. Make Money Blogging Is Easy!
When you know how, make money blogging process becomes extremely easy. It only takes a few basics in place and in appropriate order. In fact blogging to make money is just as simple as blogging for the sake of sharing information – because it is the MAIN objective:
Deliver Quality Content that Provides Answers Or Solutions
There is no “black magic” behind process, no super secrets. It is all based on common sense and on the fact that you have to give first in order to receive!
So exactly How Make Money Blogging?
3 steps to the process as I have mentioned…
1. Valuable Content
One of the reasons why blogs tend to rank better in Search Engine results then other sites is content provided in timely manner and on topic.
When you begin to deliver content that provides solutions, answers questions or what perhaps is most importantly – delivers to people who use Google to search answers they need – you will be rewarded by free flow of traffic.
2. Multiple Sources Of Traffic
As a blogger you have access to really unlimited sources of traffic or interested visitors to your blog and while many make mistake of concentrating on one or two – you need to expand your horizon and really ensure that if one source all of a sudden stops delivering – it will not become a death blow to your efforts!
- SEO and Link Building – whichever means you use for it should always be a part of your effort. As I mention in step 1 – it provides you with best kind of traffic – free and growing if you play your cards right!
- Social Marketing – this includes participation on social networks such as Twitter and Facebook and also taking full advantage of the social bookmarking services. Results might surprise you if you are not using them now!
- Article Marketing – is one of the simplest ways to build incoming links and also get visitors from other sites and should be a third big part of your traffic driving efforts!
- Forum Marketing – go where your custoemrs are at and you can’t make mistake! Many popular forum board now give you ability to add your RSS feed to help you market your blog, so be sure to edit your profile and provide all details you can to get more visitors.
- Blog Commenting and Guest Posting is another great way for you to build recognition and pull some traffic from other sites and redirect them to your own content, with complete permission from other person! Love the blogosphere!
While there are many more ways to get interested visitors to your blog, those listed above tend to produce most results in my experience.
And now that you got the people to your site…
What Do You Want Them To Do?
3. Make Relevant Offers
As simple as it sounds I’m finding time and time again that when I talk to bloggers they don’t have a clear understanding on what is it exactly they want their visitors to do?
What is ONE SINGLE ACTION they want them to take?
And yet, this is the most important aspect of monetizing your blog – ask for sale!
You don’t have to scream about it but simply present the offer in location that most often gets clicks and you got yourself a monetization in place!
And don’t overload you blog! Always use a common sense approach – how would you feel if you visited your own blog? Do you have too many offers?
Be smart and Make Offers Where It Counts to get more sales!
As I stated before…

While I have used all five sources of traffic you mentioned, I have to admit I have not been doing enough of any of them, mostly due to lack of time
.
Is there an order to your list of sources (Yeah, I know the SEO is first, but of the remaining items)?
And your key word in the last was relevent! I don’t know how many sites I have been to are trying to sell me something that I have no interest in, and has no relationship to the subject of the site!

No mention of PPC for blogs?
I see some popular bloggers using PPC to promote specific posts that are selling / reviewing some affiliate product.
I will also add another ‘BIG’ point to this. Patience. Some people want to start a blog and think they will start making the money the next instant. They forget that it’s very important to build a reputation and a following.
I fully endorse your idea of guest posts; I am a big fan of guest posts and these have helped me get in touch with really cool people in my industry.
Thanks Alex,
I’m still not doing two of the ways you mention. Namely, article marketing and forum marketing. Must set to and get them added to my plan
Thanks again,
Phil.

I love these articles Alex. They are really helpful. I have been so busy helping others over the last 4 years that somehow I have really lost focus on helping myself. I am hoping to use your great tips here to get my own blogs back on track.

It is really helpful to have the steps laid out like this – I haven’t tried forum marketing yet. I will give it a try to see what results I get.
Fiona´s last blog ..Keyword Research Software and Links
Making money from a blog is directly proportional to the traffic and quality of the visitors. Though the suggested tips are good but I would like to add that organizing online contest for the guest visitors is also a good way to keep them tuned with the blog.
Blogging can be easy once you educate yourself on how to do the 3 things you mention. Content, SEO, and monitization – that’s it. Learn as much as you can about those 3 things and apply them.
Thanks for the post

Another great post, Alex!
To your list of traffic sources I have to add MyBlogLog and Technorati – both are pretty much autopilot once you set up your account with them, so you get ongoing blog traffic from a one-time setup.
Currently I get as much traffic to my blogs from Twitter as I do from the search engines, so your comment on Social networking is spot on!

Thanks for the great post, Alex. I’m always looking for great ideas on how I can improve my blogs and my websites. It’s definitely getting harder to compete for keywords as more people are learning how to optimize and automated tools for creating splogs and other useless content. Thanks for your insights!
Sandy´s last blog ..Setting Goals Is Crucial to Succes
Finding time seems to be the biggest problem for promoting. I agree with that one.
Alex, no doubt that the things you need to do to make money online is SIMPLE but calling it “easy” seems a little over the top if you ask me. To me “easy” would be something that MOST people can do and it is obvious that most people can’t.
However I agree that it is not because anything that you need to do is complicated but the hard part (IMO) is to keep focus, stay consistent and keep taking enough action to get to where you want to go. And for most people that part is NOT easy

Mikael @ Retire Rich´s last blog ..Article Marketing Research – Marketing Online Articles Effectively
I think I agree that blogging is simple – but not necessarily EASY…unless you have the right tools, knowledge and understanding about how it all works. I am relatively new to blogging and I am finding it a challenge – only because the learning curve is so steep. The information itself is not difficult – it’s just committing to reading and learning, applying the steps and then move onto the next step.
Fiona´s last blog ..Market Samurai Review
Blogging is not difficult, it just take time and focus. Two things I do not possess! LOL. But I am striving to stay on path, and I have to say that the lessons, video tutorials, and tools you offer inside of Expert Wordpress are GOLD and are helping me to become a much more productive blogger – or rather, contributor to our global society. Thank you so much for creating such a great community, so that I can also offer something back to the community.

I have been blogging for some time. Building up a blog takes me a lot of time and effort. Working everyday to drive traffic to my blog and keep testing on different programs to make my blog generate income. To my opinion, it was easy at the beginning but once the blog start getting consistent traffic, yes making money with it becomes easier.

God I wish more bloggers would read this before they commit to this line of work… I visit dozens of new blogs daily and I’m starting to feel physical pain looking at some of them
Reading the same lines all over again, people who have no idea how to do this professionally giving bad advice ..
If someone created an internet faq, this post should be under “earning $ while blogging”.

I had no idea of using forums as a source of Traffic. Thanks for the post. web host
Making money on Web is really an art, those people know it make huge amounts easily while others make fool of themeselves. Sometime I really feel how much do these big names on blogosphere earn… dont mix curosity with jealousy, but I really want to know and learn this art.
Slym´s last blog ..How much money top bloggers make?
I especially liked the part of this post dealing with traffic getting sources. Rather than writing good content, and doing the work to publicize their posts in a more ethical way, too many people fall into the trap of buying into paid services that provide thousands of links at once which are all too often of low quality. Thanks for another great post!
This post has got me some very good money making tips from blogs. I’m planning to start a blog very soon. Thanks.
