Make Money Blogging

To make money blogging is an appealing proposition to many people because it does not require any technical skill to set up a blog, and blog sites are known to get high search engine rankings, although I suspect this trend is starting to change.

The basic steps for how to make money blogging are:

1. Set up a blog site
Usually, this means using one of the two major blog engines, Blogger (Blogspot) or Wordpress. There is an ongoing debate as to which one is better. Some people say Blogger gets higher search engine rankings, however, Blogger is also notorious for shutting down blog sites suspected of spamming.

2. Place ads on your blog
You have two options here. The easiest way is to place Google Adsense on your site. Just copy code you get from Google and you're done. The more involved way is to join affiliate programs in related industries and post links on your blog. This may be more lucrative, but it also takes more work.

3. Build some links to your blog
The easiest way to do this is to post in forums (with a link to your blog in your signature) or write articles and submit them to article directories.

It sounds pretty straightforward, but unless you know exactly what you are doing at each step, you will not make much money. Most people will need to set up quite a few blogs in order to make a decent amount of revenue.

If you want to make money blogging, you must also be good at writing and be able to write fast. If not, you will need to hire someone who can. This can be done at places like Elance, where you can hire contractors for competitive rates. So in summary, yes, you can make money with blogs, but it does require work and knowledge - not just about blogs but about Internet marketing as well.
