The main reason why anyone develops a blog is to earn through it. Though earning something from a blog is not an easy task, it takes years to really derive something from a blog. But then there are ways which can help you to earn from your blog.
Read on this blog post of mine to understand how can you earn or make money from your blog?
You all know that from last few months I was sharing a blog daily with you all, but unfortunately since last Saturday night I was suffering from viral fever, which then affected my wife and my little angel as well. Thus it forced me to take an unwanted leave or break from my blogging schedule. Maintaining a blogging schedule is really crucial in blogging, but then there is something’s which are more important than anything else in life.
The health of yours and yours dear ones fall into the same.
Anyways, it is the love of some of my friends, Shwetabh Mathur, Dipali, Shetall, Vinay, Ruchi, which helped me to recover quickly from the viral fever, which actually makes the person too weak. After so many days I decided to start writing is just because of the love which they all showered on us.
So coming back to our original discussion, I shared two blogs on how to make money from blogging and second one on the same title, in which I discussed about different ways through which you can earn from your blog. When I was sick, I was reading some of my old blogs and I realized that there are few things which are actually other than all these things and which I did not discussed on these two blogs and hence the idea of writing this third blog post came into my mind.
Undoubtedly it is true that blogging provide you name, fame, and a huge opportunity to earn as well from your blog. Though in reality if you ask bloggers, around 90% of them will respond that they did not get any success in earning from their blogs.
But then there are bloggers who do share their monthly income and which really sounds quite interesting for others. So are they giving a wrong figure?
No, it is actually true that there are bloggers who use to run blogs which are returning them decent amount, while there are bloggers who are giving so much efforts, but still unable to earn anything from their blog.
What are they missing?
In my opinion this is something which majority of bloggers are lacking behind and this is something which compels them not to earn something good from their blog.
When you are blogging, the approach should be professional, people should understand that you are a serious blogger, not doing blogging for time pass, or casually.
Professional blogging generally considered as a blog with unique domain name, self hosted and having a professional looking design. But honestly if you ask me I won’t say that those are the only things which can make you a professional or serious blogger. Those are really important but then you also need an attitude, which should reflect in the posts which you make on your blog, which will tell everyone if you are a serious blogger or not.
Let me give you an example.
You read my blogs on SEO tips, self improvement tips and blogging tips too.
Do you consider me as a serious blogger?
Give response to this in the form of comments, but please do share your response genuinely. I won’t fear in facing criticism too and will be happy to hear them, as they will help me to enhance my abilities.
So the point which I wanted to make over here is that your readers should understand from your blogs that you are an expert in a particular field, and thus your blog will be considered as a successful blog, and those successful blogs can only be able to earn something.
If you people consider me as an expert in SEO or Blogging, then it is not because I am an expert in those fields, but it is because you people like the blogs which I share on those topics, and hence you do consider so (if you do by any chance). On the other hand if you reach to my blog and don’t like them, you will consider me as a low level blogger and would not give value to my blogs. In that case how can I assume that I will be able to acquire something from my blog, which is not even liked by the readers?
Only when people will consider your blogs as brilliant, then only they will give you some offers.
When I said above line, let me clear it that when you have established yourself as a serious and brilliant blogger, people will start throwing offers on you. It can be anything, like please review our products, please review our services on your blog, or anything of the similar nature.
Though being an experience guy I can say that we should not grab all the offers which come to our way. Do understand the actual nature of offer, do analyze if it is more harmful than useful for your website. Being a blog on mobile phones, you cannot publish a blog post on reviewing a company which produces shoes.
Obviously those who want to grab information’s about mobile phone will never like the idea of getting information about shoes on your blog.
Similarly if you receive an offer in which person is putting conditions like you need to place three links of our blah-blah pages, I would suggest you to simply reject it. You should accept the offers in which you have given the freedom to genuinely review something. If you cannot have the opportunity to share what you feel about something, then the purpose of blogging is dead.
You should ideally reject those offers.
While getting such offers, many newbie’s remain confused about the pricing factor. Well, honestly companies want to take benefits of yours confusion. Don’t allow them to take benefits of your efforts and time.
Do fix a price for some review, depending on how much time you gave on them and how much effort you put on making that into a blog post. Don’t compromise on that.
Don’t think in this way that I will lose a good opportunity, don’t worry you will get many such opportunities in coming days, but then don’t compromise on the quality of your blog posts, which you maintained and hence you were getting the offers.
Believe me my dear friends, once you will establish yourself as a serious and quality blogger, companies will start approaching you for some freelance work. Honestly blogging is becoming a serious online marketing tool these days, and you should not take it so lightly.
You just need to focus on your main work, i.e. blogging, and develop your blog with sincerity. And soon you will get the reward. But be careful in accepting those exposures.
Once you established yourself as a quality blogger, and your voice will be heard in social media sites, then people will approach you for sharing opinions on social media sites as well.
Believe me social media is the identity builder for us bloggers. We should never ignore them. Who knows one day you too had an offer of getting $1000 for only sharing your opinion about a particular things on your social media profile. Thus twitting an opinion or sharing it on Facebook might give you an opportunity to earn handsome.
So those were some of the ways through which you can earn or make money from your blog, other than those direct methods which I shared on those two blogs earlier. The only thing which you need meanwhile is to do blogging seriously.
If you can’t input honest efforts on blogging, don’t expect a huge output from it then.
Please do share your opinion about this blog post of mine. Also do share your opinion about my question which I asked in this post. I will be waiting for your responses on those.
