I have read a lot about blogging for money, some of the stuff on here. How does this work? Is it possible? Are there any pitfalls to watch out for or scams. From what I have read it sounds like something I would really like to get involved with, any general advice would be much appreciated..--Answer1:If you are sincere and patient you can make money blogging online with Google ad sense for which you have to work with devotion. And in Google ad sense programs there are no pitfalls..--Answer2:On the face of it blogging for money is fairly easy, what with all the possible hosts out there and many forms of monetizing I dont know why everyone isnt blogging to make money online.However there is a bit of catch to it, especially if you are looking to make an online income out of it. A blog is NOT an online business, it is simply a marketing tool to create online income. If you want to make money blogging you will have to think like a business man and decide on how you are going to target your blog. By that I mean what niche are you going to write about.These are just a few things you will need to be a successful blogger;- You will need to choose a blogging platform with Blogger and Wordpress been the most popular. You can have a free domain or buy one for $10 or so.- You will need to review your niche before starting, ensure there is enough traffic available to make money. You can use the adwords keyword tool to accomplish this.- Take time to respond to emails and comments you may get. As I said treat it like a business, build confidence and respect in what you are doing.- Research your niche on a daily basis so you can write informative posts and keep people up to date within that blogging niche.- You will need to post articles at least 3 times a week, this is for 2 reasons. The search engines love fresh info and your readers may get bored if you dont write enough.- Write for people first and the search engines second. Be sure to read up on search engine optimization but dont become too wrapped up with it, concentrate on building rapour with your visitors.- You must get links to your blog, one of the best ways to do this is article marketing but also by writing quality content that people will want to link back to.Remember blogging is not an easy income source it is going to take hard work and determination. The money will not come straight away and I suggest reading as much free info online as possible. Never pay for anything and in the early days maybe monetize your blog with google adsense.There is no end of blogging info online and tips and traick for making money. Read it and then apply it, if it doesnt work...move on and try something else...this is how you become successful.Good Luck.--Answer3:Yes, have all of your websites linked together and advertise each one on each site, you never know in which way your gonna get someones attention, thats what i do, have fun.--Answer4:Yes, it is possible. And yes, there are many scams out there. Believe it or not, when researching this sort of topic on the internet, the free information is often the best information. Dont be tempted to buy an ebook or guide to learn how to do it. The information is out there on the internet.I speak from experience. Before you blog starts making you the big bucks, you will need to find other online activites to bring in some cash. Keep at it with your blog and start writing articles for established blogs. Your blog should establish itself within 3 to 6 months if you do a good job. And then the money you get from it will be sufficient.I am now a full time internet entrepreneur. And I started with nothing in my Paypal account. My first 10 dollars in that account came from work I did for a client. And it has just grown from there.
