    1, One of the easiest ways to make money with a blog is to sign up with Google Adsense. Google Adsense will place ads on your blog determined by the keywords in your content. You make money when visitors on your blog click on these ads. You get different amounts of money for each ad, usually just a few cents. You will not make much money with this method but it is super easy, because it is a passive way to make money.

  2. Step 2

    2. With all of the content you have posted on your blog you could make an e-book. If you have many posts on a single topic, you can organize it to make an e-book. E-books are simple to make. All you need to do is transfer your posts into any word processing software, and then convert that into PDF format and that's all you have to do to make an e-book.

  3. Step 3

    Now you have to sell your e-book. Make a website to sell your new e-book. Purchase a domain name, web hosting, and design your website to sell. Use the money you made from the Google ad sense campaign to fund this new venture.

  4. Step 4

You can make a lot of money with this method when the word gets out.
