Yes, more and more people are making money with blogs and there are so many ways to do it!

1. Market your services in your blog.
A lot of people think of blogs as places to vent or shout your opinions to the world. This is one use for blogs but you shouldn't overlook their capacity to create customers as well. Just make sure that your posts are informative and offer value to whoever will be reading them. What kind of services can you offer? The list is endless. . .choose something that you like and do well like writing, graphic design, PPC, SEO, email campaigns, babysitting, coaching, anything goes.

2. Sell advertising space.
This might be the most common way to leverage your blog to generate income. If you create a well-known blog, it's pretty easy to sell ad space. People will come looking! For new or not as well known blogs, services such as Google's AdSense or BlogAds enable bloggers to earn income from advertisers. AdSense is free and lets you select several ads that are consistent with the content of your blog. You get paid when readers click on the ads.

BlogAds connects bloggers with advertisers and takes a commission in return for any ad placements that result. These types of programs are the reasons that so many are now making money with blogs.

3. Ask for contributions.
Some people are leary about this but if your small-business blog supports some kind of cause or issue, it doesn't hurt to ask for reader support. And readers who become loyal to your blog are especially willing to make a little contribution. Programs like PayPal make it easy to establish a simple on-site contribution collection button.

4. Help sell other people's products and/or services.
Let your blog be the conduit between readers and online sites offering various goods and services. Just go to ClickBank or Commission Junction and pick out an affiliate product or service to sell - it should be something that goes along with the content of your blog. Or you can create a new blog specifically for the products you decide to promote. If you write articles about certain products that you would recommend, you can get paid a commission when someone takes you up on the offer.

5. Once you've got some customers.
Use your blog to keep them. Using a blog to regularly communicate with existing clients as well as other new readers is a way to fully inform them about everything your business does. Your posts can enlighten your readers about the full scope of your products or services and even inspire the to refer you to others.

6. Good Blogs.
Keep in mind that good blogs are those that are updated regularly and frequently with original and high-quality content. Give your readers a reason to come back to your blog again and again.

More and more people are making money with blogs. Will you be one of them?

Make Money Online - The 3 Secrets

It is simply amazing how many people get online, and head over to their favorite search engine, and type in 'make money online', and start looking over the results. The result is always the same; they run into thousands of 'too good to be true' ways to make money, then splash down some cash on the best looking scheme, and before long, they are back searching for the 'real' make money online system.

Don't get me wrong: sometimes, people actually do luck out and start to make money online after finding something that looked good. It's just that most people go through a mountain of opportunities and schemes, before either giving up, or finally seeking out someone who IS making money online and living on every word their 'guru' speaks.

Sadly, many of the gurus have a business plan, to sell useful but incomplete solutions, with the aim to upsell more expensive stuff later, so they can continue to earn an income from their customers for years to come.

Make Money Online - The 3 Secrets

So what is a person supposed to do?

Let me share with you 3 secrets about the people who are making money online... and I don't mean pennies per day with Google Adsense; I mean 6 and 7-figures per year, or more. Here are the 3 secrets of the online rich:

Secret 1: The folks making a killing online didn't start off making money!

Nope...almost all of them spent time learning how others doing it, before finally hitting paydirt. Secret #1 is 'do what works', meaning, find someone who is making real money online, and follow their method.

Secret 2: There is NO fast easy money.

Disappointed? I hope not. It is simply amazing to see how many people are looking for 'do nothing, get rich' solutions online, and the thousands of scammers who are advertising crap to hook these people. You could waste many years in the world of fast easy money before you ever learned that you need to put something in to get something out.

Secret 3: You gotta know a few things to make money online

This is probably no surprise to anyone, but the counter- intuitive part of secret 3 is the fact that what you think you need to know is probably NOT what you really need to know. I mean, how to get your message in front of millions of people is useful, but it is such a tiny part of any real success system that you would most likely waste your money advertising if that was your first question. You see, most people have no clue what makes a person buy or not buy. It's a complicated thing, and involves the persons needs and wants, hopes and fears, as well as the message they encounter, the perceptions they have, and the presentation of the message. It includes the methods of ordering, and the ability for the buyer to navigate a successful purchase. (Articlelogy.com)
