You Must Provide Value If Your Are to Make Money From Blogging
So you would like to turn your blog or your interest in blogs, into a fully monetized revenue stream that can reimburse you for your time? Well like everything else in this world we live in, long term sustained revenue will only come from making sure that a few basic principles are in place first, before trying to promote your blog to the world.
The first and probably the most important is to take a good look at what you are offering the visitors to your blog.
Are you offering them value? Can you see that what you are offering is enough to bring those people back time after time again, so that they may eventually become Members of your blog? Are you offering enough Value to attract new visitors? The VALUE is the bottom line! I mean, if you are writing a blog about what you did today and how you went shopping for shoes, then not too many people are going to be interested in your content.
This type of "personal" blog is better left for the "Social Network" scene, although you can still make money with a blog of this type.
Most people are going to be interested in subject matter that is specialized, and focused "a niche" and this is where you stand the best chance of making ongoing consistent money from your blog.
People will see the value in the information and/or resources that your blog offers, possibly bookmark your blog to come back again in a couple of days to investigate further.
When they do this, there is a strong chance that they will subscribe to your blog or your RSS feed, so that each time you update your blog, they will be notified.
This concept of providing great VALUE is the single most important factor in making money from your blog.
Without the feeling that they have received something of value, there's very little chance that a visitor to your blog, will return, nor are they likely to spread the word about your blog.
Without both of these events occurring, making any real money from your blog will be a hard task for you to achieve.
The more visitors/traffic you create to your blog, the more opportunity you will have to monetize your blog in many ways, and you can start to make money from blogging.
