Getting paid to blog is not as easy as it sounds. Many of us have tried the various options available with little or no success. Learn a technique that allows you to make money with your blogs.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions
  1. Step 1

    There are a few ways to make money blogging. The first is a shared revenue program. These companies place ads on your blog pages and share any revenue earned from your posts. The second option is placing your own ads on your blog pages and receiving 100% of your earnings. But the third option is the best option I have found.

  2. Step 2

    With the third option, you use your blog as a form of article marketing. This is accomplished by joining several different affiliate programs, and then promoting each program/product with your blog. This is actually a very easy way to make money.

  3. Step 3

    Start with your first program/product and read all of the information on their website. Find as many benefits as possible, then, simply write a great review, listing all of these benefits. This should take no more than 2-3 paragraphs. Then, simply add a link to the website, using your affiliate url.

  4. Step 4

    Clickbank.com is a great place to start with affiliate programs. There are tons of different products available, no matter what your interests are. Writing on topics that interest you is the key to making money with this idea. Or, you can simply do a search on 'YOUR TOPIC affiliate programs' for more options.

  5. Step 5

    The idea is to get the reader interested in the program/product, and then send them to the program/product website to complete the sale. Also, place google adsense ads and other affiliate banners in various locations on your page. This will provide an opportunity to earn even more.

Tips & Warnings
  • There are also several companies that claim to pay you directly for blogging. However, I have not had time to try this opportunity, so I have no opinion or information for this method. It may be worth investigating as well.
