There are different ways of making money through blogging fo which I aqm going to be telling you today

To make money from your blog, you need loyal readers who value your recommendations.

Choose a Profitable Niche

These is supposed to because when you go for a bad niche you would not make a lot of money, you have to go to a niche that is less competitive and have a lot of audience, yes I know a lot of people will be like write the one that your are passionate about, I know that is good but what if the one you are passionate about has not audience, because I cannot be writing a 4000 or 6000 words article just for 30 or 40 people to come and read. But literally you must write what you are passionate about but you must also make sure there is an audience to write for, one of the problem of writing content that you know nothing about is that you will hate writing that content

For those who don’t know what a niche is, a niche is a specific topic within a broad topic, such as vegan recipes. By choosing one for your blog, readers build an association with your site. They know exactly what they’ll get when visiting, improving your chances of being their first port of call when looking for advice.

A profitable blog niche meets three criteria:

• It’s something you’re good at and/or interested in. Blogs need a lot of consistently high-quality content to build an audience and become monetized. Not only will it be more enjoyable to blog about something you have a genuine interest in, but you’ll increase the likelihood of generating money. It’s easier to stick with a hobby we enjoy.
• Low in competition. Popular blogs, brands, or forums in your niche indicate others are making money in it. Similarly, do a Google search to assess keyword ranking difficulty. It’ll be harder to drive organic traffic if big-name brands (with even bigger marketing budgets) are dominating the first page of search results.
• Monetization potential. Look at monetization opportunities for each niche on your shortlist. Do companies in that niche pay to advertise their products on other blogs? Are there many affiliate programs that sell products in that industry? Both are telltale signs of a profitable blog niche.

Building Your Email List

One of the best ways to do this is by building an email list for your own blog. When someone opts in to hear from your blog, you’re given permission to reach readers in one place more sacred than all others: their inbox.

There are ways you could do this, firstly one of themost effective is through a pop uo box, were you will ask the reader to enter there email to get a free resource and the reader will have no option but to do that and then later on you could always market to them via email marketing

Once they’ve signed up, continue nurturing that relationship with educational or entertaining content. You’ll build an audience ready to buy products off your recommendations.

Sell a Advertisement Placement

Basically this is for blogs with high amount of traffic, if your blog is getting enough monthly traffic, companies might want to place there advert on your website, so if you still have space on your website you could give them that in exchange for a fee.

Writing Product Review, Round Up and Comparison

This is one of the most popular and effective means of making money from blogging, and one of the reason why it is best is because it is targeted, the individual is in a buyer mindset and he or she is ready to buy, they just need someone to help give them a confirmation that the product is good. You can make product reviews, round up and comparison content.

Digital products are a more scalable way to make money by selling things alongside your blog. Unlike service-based businesses, you don’t exchange time for money. And, unlike selling physical products, there’s no shipping or manufacturing costs.

There are different ways of selling digital product, you could set up a pop up that will introduce the visitors to a product and it is very effective

You Can Also Set Up an E commerce Store

If you have physical product to sell, then you could sell them in a page of your website, it is very effective and is a good source of making money, also if you are having high traffic, other companies might want their product to be on your store and then when you get a sale you will get a fee, so it is also a very good form of making money through your blog.

You Can Create A Paid Membership community

You could give your most engaged visitors to get a chance into your premium content for a fee, and people who love to learn from you will also want to join the community were they will have access to premium content, so it is a very effective means of making money through your blog
