5 Steps to make Money from Blogging

Some few months back, a lot of people in India & United States talked about global recession. A lot many people around the Globe lost their million dollar jobs but one thing remained unaffected that is Blogging. 


What is Blogging???
A blog is a website or a part of website in which a individual who is the owner of the blog writes articles on his area of specialisation & make it more interactive by allowing comments on his various articles & solving out visitors queries. The main earnings for any blogger comes from Google Adsense.


Yes , "There is blogging culture in India, United States" with the significant upliftment in the education system in the entire world esp. the Asian gaints & the growing popularity of Internet & because if these social networking sites like facebook, twitter, orkut people are getting use to Internet.


5 Steps to make Money from Blogging


1. Select a niche Topic
The first & the foremost thing to understand if you want to make money out of blogging is selecting a right niche which you have a passion for to 

  • Write
  • Read
  • Listen
If you just select a niche just on the basis of what people around you are saying or doing or making million dollar money, believe drop the idea to start a blog. You will never succeed. So, if a aspiring blogger is a MBA in Finance, he should jump into writting tech blogs. 


2. Decieding on the name of the blog
Always try to have a keyword relating to your niche in your domain name & try to make your blog on wordpress as it is possible to have a better SEO on wordpress than on blogger. For Example, for a person who want to start up a blog on mutual funds, he may deciede www.mutualfundindia.co.in


3. Target Top Keywords of your Niche & SEO
This is very important tool which most of the bloggers fail to understand is the quality of keywords you use in your articles & especially in the articles headings. This may drive quality & targeted audience to your blog from search engines on a auto pilot basis. For example, If you are looking to make a blog on health tips, the keywords like diabeties , fever, hypertension, heart, gastro, gynae problems are to used in the articles strategically & if possible in the headline also. 


4. Write Quality Posts Only
My dear, donot blog just to write. If you write, write only quality. Quality is the king of blogging, not quantity. It is important because it will help you to gain more regular visitors & readers, and thereby creating long term relation with your blog. 
Secondly, it may also help to create backlinks. It is also very important for a aspiring blogger to update his blog everyday, may be twice atleast in the first year of the life of the blog. Believe it or not, it pays off because it takes atleast one year to build loyalty among your dear readers.


5. Monetize your blog with Adsense & Affiliate Marketing
Google is the best way to monetize your blog easily by placing ads on your pages of the websites which are related to your niche & when a visitor clicks onto your ad, you get paid even as high as 3-4$ per click, if your blog is in niche segement. But normally, it takes 6 months for Google to approve your adsense account. 
You may also go for affiliate marketing programmes which means promoting other companies products on your blog. Some of the affiliate marketing websites are
  • www.clickbank.com
  • www.shareasale.com
  • www.paydotcom.com
It is quite possible to earn around 1500-2000 $ per month if you are able to attain your alexa ranking, a universal ranking method websites below 100000 which is not difficult if you write quality with passion

If you do this for 12-18 months with

  • Passion
  • Patience
You will succeed for sure & make money online in dollars.
