How can I make money with my blog?
First, let’s talk about how you can make money from your blog. There are numerous methods to profit from a blog. Here are 10 ways to make a good amount of money.
How to Make Money from Blogging
1. Make money from the Adsense ads
Putting ads on a blog is a common and easy way to make money. Adsense is what most bloggers use to make money from ads.
Google’s Adsense is a place where you can sign up your website or blog to show ads. After getting approval from Adsense, you put some code on your blog, and then people who visit your blog start seeing ads.
When someone visits your blog and clicks on one of your ads, you get paid. On your Adsense account, you can see how many people saw the ad and how many times it was clicked on.
We have already written a separate post with step-by-step instructions on how to make an Adsense account, which you can also read for more information.
There are some other ways to make money online besides Adsense. You can use them like:
- Media.net
- Adnow
- PropellerAds etc.
2. From Ezoic’s ad
Ezoic has the best ad network, and you can also call it an alternative to Adsense. If you aren’t getting approved for Google Adsense, then you should try this. It’s a partner of Google Adsense, so you can use it with Adsense as well.
Even if you’re already using Adsense, you should test it because it can help you make more money by putting ads in the best places. Here, you can also cash out your earnings of $20. Visit this page on Ezoic to sign up for Adsense partner programme Ezoic.
3. Direct Ads can help you make money.
If you use Google’s Adsense, you don’t have full control over the ads that show up on your blog. Google automatically shows ads based on the content of your blog and who reads it. And how much you make from it depends on a lot of different things.
But you can make good money if you put direct ads or private ads on your blog and deal directly with an advertiser at a fixed rate. And all of the money you make from this will be yours. You won’t have to share it with anyone else.
But this work isn’t as easy as Adsense, so you’ll need to put in a lot of effort. You will have to find people who are willing to put ads on your site. And to do this, you have to give them a reason to believe that the ad will help them.
4. Get paid for sponsoring
If your blog is popular enough, people will come to it, like what you write, and link to it. Through sponsorship, you can make a lot of money.
- Sponsorship means that you can write a post about a company’s product or service and get money from that company.
- To get a sponsor, you need to do a few things:
- Your blog needs a “Contact us” or “Sponsors” page so that people can get in touch with you.
- Put out good, high-quality content.
You can ask brands to sponsor your blog by looking for brands that have something to do with your blog’s niche.
Tell the company if you have a lot of followers on social media, so they can also promote the product on social media.
If you want brands to get in touch with you on their own, you should add a “contact” page to your blog and put your email or phone number on it.
5. Make money from link placement and backlinks
Backlink is the term for putting a link to another website in a blog post. Backlink is very important for SEO, so people keep getting in touch with different bloggers to make backlink. People will contact you to give you a backlink if your blog is good.
You can get money from them to put their link on your blog. But you should think about what kind of website you’re linking to. Do not link to sites that promote bad things, such as gambling, drinking, pornographic material, etc. Your blog will not benefit from this.
6. Write paid reviews to make money.
The word “Paid Review” sounds bad, but if you’ve used a product or service and liked it, there’s no reason not to write a review about it.
Talk to relevant companies in your niche about reviewing their products for money.
When writing a review, keep in mind that the information you give should be correct, that you should be honest with your readers, and that you shouldn’t give them wrong information.
7. Market through affiliates
After Adsense, affiliate marketing is a very popular way for blogs to make money. But there are a lot of differences between making money from ads and making money from affiliate.
With Adsense, you get a small amount of money for each click, but with Affiliate Marketing, you can make a good amount of money from a single sale. Because of this, this way of making money with a blog is becoming very popular these days.
To do this, you need to join an affiliate network, find the product you want to promote, and put the affiliate link for that product into your content. When someone clicks on your link and buys that product, you get a commission.
8. Link Shortner can help you make money.
I still remember that the first money I made from my blog was $5 from a link shortener. If you put a link to a file’s download on your blog, you can use Link shortener to turn that link into a short link.
If someone clicks on that short link, his money will go to you. We’ve listed some good Link Shortner or URL shorteners below:
- Adfly or ay.gy
- Shrinkme
- Shorte.st
We’ve used all three of these sites and taken money out of them, so you can trust them.
9. Get paid to sell your own book
If you know a lot about a subject or can teach people something, you can turn that information into an Ebook. Set a price for the ebook and write a blog post about it. If people buy that book, you can make more than that when they do.
The best thing about selling eBooks is that you don’t have to pay anything to make them, and almost all of the money you make from them is yours.
10. Able to sell own goods
You can sell physical products through your blog the same way you can sell eBooks. With the Woocommerce plugin, you can turn your blog into an online store if you want.
