How do you become a make money blogger and how much effort do you need to put in before you start making money?
The truth hurts
You will need to put a substantial amount of time into blogging before you make money and start thinking about giving up your day job. You will need to master some SEO basics, write catchy articles, work on obtaining backlinks and you need to be very patient.
Becoming a make money blogger is not as easy as you may think. Unless you have a well established network of sites or are one of the A-list bloggers out there. Still it isn’t impossible! It will take alot of time and work to start earning money but when you start making your first few dollars it is a really nice reward, but beware you will be putting in far more time and effort than what you will be earning via Adsense or other means.
It will take a while
It will take a while, we usually don’t have enough time in every day life and most of us want fast results. It is what it is, and if you put the effort into it you will get some reward out of it. In my case i have only started using adsense since one month and my best day so far was $5.74 dollars which doesn’t seem much but to me it proves that money can be made and it was somewhat a sence of achievement. That $5.74 dollars could be 50 dollars after a while and who knows, maybe even more. The fact is, it will probably take up to 6 months before i make money with my sites and with make money i mean $25 dollars or more a day.
The top money makers
Most of you that are new to the make money online niche have come across John Chow’s or Shoemoney’s blog, i think these are great sites for starters in this niche but it is a huge misstake to try and be like them. Ask yourself the following question… What have you learned from these two blogs?
I have learned one or two things but neither are really SEO related, some articles are fun to read others are just boring. The most important thing i learned is that there are too many blogs out there trying to copy them. They generally have the same kind of layout and the same 125×125 ads on them, they all have rss readers and have some twitter followers.
It is something i advise you not to do! This site will get it’s own unique template and i will offer the template as a free download when it is completed. The layout will be made by myself and a close friend of mine who has been a webdesigner since 1998. It will be a completely different template compared to most MMO templates and best of all it will be FREE. I hope we can get the template finished this month but with x-mas around the corner it might take a bit longer.
Traffic
Another lesson i learned from these two blogs is that in both cases they are not driving organic traffic to their sites with make money keywords. Most traffic is generated via rss readers, twitter followers and most likely mailing lists. They both have established names and they do have a huge amount of traffic.
Conclusion
I think it is important to try and be different compared to these guys and not to be to trustworthy regarding information they post. As i said some articles are fun to read and there are definately a few things you can learn but there are other sites out there that do teach you SEO basics and that is the information i tend to look for. In a earlier post i mentioned a few of the sites helping me on my way in my quest to make money.
