How to Make Money Blogging

Make Money Blogging, ah it is what stuff dreams are made of! This article is meant for those who have probably a basic knowledge of blogging. By that you should have at least created one blog and made one single post and added the Adsense adverts and more. You checked your Adsense reports every day maybe even every hour but nothing happened! I'd say you are not alone as some articles dare say that 95% of bloggers trying to earn an income online fail.

Next you come across countless ads online promising you instant fortune with their super duper system. These guides costs from 10 dollars or more and you start to see a few clicks coming in on some days. After a month you may be lucky to earn enough to cover the cost of the e-book let alone your Internet subscription fees. Bummer! This online marketing is crap.

There are very few good systems out there. Fact is there are a lot of opportunists looking to make a fast buck from newbies. What you will learn from most of them is usually not adequate for you to earn a consistent income online. Although I did not buy any e-books online I did "invest" tens of hours reading through scores of websites. I took down notes and tweaked my blogs until I saw improvements. It took me almost a year before I could really see decent results.

Like you I must have Googled this sentence many times. If you repeat that this very moment you should see something like this at the top right of the results - Results 1 - 10 of about 172,000,000 for how to make money blogging. (0.31 seconds). Whoa! Only 172 million pages! Unfortunately a popular query like how to make money blogging will return more results than say, "how to repair bicycles". Results 1 - 10 of about 9,590,000 for how to repair bicycles. (0.31 seconds)

Before you decide to make money blogging by creating a blog on all there is to know about fixing bicycles, think again. Now go back to that search query and look at the right sidebar area. There is not a single Adsense ad whereas the Make Money Blogging (see pic) search returned 4 sponsored ads. You get it now?

So even if you have great flair and in-depth knowledge about all things bicycles you may be better off working at the make money online niche. So take time to think through what your niche market will be. Or better still target at least three niche areas and start not one but three new blogs at once.
