How to Earn Money from Blogging

I think Adsense has lot of restrictions in place before they approve publishers. The main ones are -

1. No duplicate content.
2. No adult content.
3. No illegal stuff.

Plus, I don't think they've the 20 back-links criteria. You just need to have a decent website design and adhere to their policies to get approved. Adsense blog recently published that they have a 2 step approval process in place to make sure that they only accept quality advertisers in their program.

I think $5/day is a nice estimate and quite achievable in just 3-6 months of start; but that requires lot of hard work. Unless you've lot of US visitors, it will take at least 1000 visitors/day to generate that income. By the way, there are several publishers who make handsome money from blogging; but they put in *real* hard work in their blogs.

Thank you for the article, I'm quite sure lot of CEans would find it useful.

Spot On observations Dear K.

Yeas, Certainly 20 backlinks is not a google criteria, but My observation says, that helps in getting AdSense approval fast. And of course Earning is hard work. Any day that is. Engineers without a target is blank. So just wrote this small article to give them the self believe , "yes I can also earn!"

Once somebody starts taking it seriously, he has many ways to learn.

PS: Thank you for your appreciation dear K.

Great Rupam: So you say that we select an arbitrary target of 25 comments on other people's blogs/ websites? Yes it can be done.

By the way what is ctr and cpc?

Another thing, if you say that I am writing about technology, so should I write say 10-15 articles on cars, the 10-15 articles on mobile phones etc in a bunch?

Commenting on other people's blogs may or may not be counted as a 'back link'. CTR is 'Click Through Ratio' and 'CPC' is 'Cost Per Click'. CTR is usually, how many clicks does an advertisement get per thousand visitors and Cost Per Click is usually the amount publisher generates through each click on the advertisement.

It is Not like that Issue! "Technology is a Broad Area, cars , mobile phones are the Niches. So you need to select a Niche. your blog can not contain both Cars and Mobiles. If you want to, you need to create two such accounts and keep them separate.

You can not put 25 arbitary comments. Select the blogs or articles on similar and recent niche. and comment on that.

You certainly need to be ready with 10 articles minimum to have a fare chance of adsense acceptance.

Once you get your AdSense account buddy, I will tell you what is CTR and CPM and CPC, for Now, first thing first!

@ Rupam, Wow! Interesting business opportunity. Really, a lot of people would love to go into this field after reading this article. Very impressive writing style.
Truly, love it; both the idea and the writing style!
You just opened few eyes. 😉

You are spot on Dear K. But they help spreading your blog! people give a visit! initially few redirected hits are also worth! That keeps the traffic coming from different sources.

Nice post#-Link-Snipped-#, short and positive. I can say that is a little bit too positive.
To earn at least 5$ per day, first of all, the blog have to be interesting, you, as a writer, you need to be interesting and Unique content is the key. If you are an working and dedicated person, you will succeed for sure.

P.S. You need a lot of free time to do all these things.
P.P.S. I'm waiting for #-Link-Snipped-# to allow me to put my signature 😁

What about literature? Do people even care for such blogs? I'd love to moneyterize my blog (namesake). <a href="https://anoopmat.blogspot.com" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">TheFriendsLobby</a>

I read Your Poetries, I love them. If kind off a Half Mad workaholic like me can find little time from his 15 hours work schedule to read Struggling Woman then there are many Not so mad people who love them. The only fact is what and how you present!

I see no chance why you cant get an adsense for your blog. Give it a shot!

Go ahead: #-Link-Snipped-# and update your signature. 😀

@anoopthefriend: Yes, blogs are independent and important source of information these days. If nothing works, a blog can earn you something as cool as -#-Link-Snipped-#

It helps me a lot Rumpam.Thanks for nice post .I need to follow the steps carefully

I think Google Adsence is worst 😡 . It has very strong terms & condition. If you try to chit them for more than 3 -4 times they banned you! Also they count only first 3 clicks & pays for 1000 impressions which is quite low.
I will suggest Rupam to do just great work when you are free and the forgate it for next few months after some months you have very good database. Now do for advertising. But still i think Make money from advertise should not give major importance. Try to develop your own advertisement systems & planes.

Adsense only works when you've *large* traffic. Your income is highly influenced by the geography of your audience. Usually, North American visitor pays more than an African user. However, direct advertising is the best form of advertising and beats every other system hands down.

1 to 5 points can easily be implemented but the 6th one requires patience. A large number of users were banned just because of fraud clicks. Adsense is indeed a great way of earning from your blogs but only when implemented correctly.

Yeah, many use AdSense and they have a lot of scrutinizing rules. My question to Biggie is, is it possible to use our own AdSense kinda concept, by getting people to post the ads, like how buysellads does? If that's the case, what kind of steps needs to be followed? In this case, we can get the payment directly from the clients right? 😉

yes this happens preveen.It may b affiliate marketing or directly contact person who are interested in this kid of concepts .I personally know a person who got an offer like this .But this may need patience to find out person interested in your site indeed .

Not quite sure what you're saying. It's possible to develop adsense like solution. OpenX actually does that pretty well. The major challenge seems to be finding the advertisers.

Oyee! I said like, lets keep ad placeholders in our sites, and once it gets popularity, we can put like, please send mail to #-Link-Snipped-# to use the 256 x 256 banner or something... 😀 Got it? We will be able to fix the price and we have the full control! 😀

vinciyes this happens preveen.It may b affiliate marketing or directly contact person who are interested in this kid of concepts .I personally know a person who got an offer like this .But this may need patience to find out person interested in your site indeed .

Agreed with you... It is tough and time taking task... 😔 We need to literally beg or search for people... For putting ad in our site, we need to give ads to ask for ads! Lolz, yeah, kinda difficult! 😔

Maintaining a blog is tough. You need quality time to spend on it. It's getting difficult with a work-eat-study-sleep routine.

Strong desires drive most of it. I know students who earn a few thousand bucks every month through blogging part-time. The initial 6-8 months are the toughest in blogging because there aren't enough people to read your blog and of course, there's no income.

Yes, I agree. But google had changed blogspot.com to blogspot.in (well a few months ago), and this has affected a lot of bloggers as the rankings and SEO got changed. It's like putting in an extra six months into it all over again. 😔

When a company gains monopoly - it starts 'commanding'. Few years ago, I used to argue how Google's turning into a devil and people would not accept my argument. The same thing's happening with Facebook and it's going to turn worse in coming days (months or years). People trust Facebook so much that they put all their personal information, photos and videos on it and now Facebook knows everything about you; just like Google did. Facebook's a monopoly in the social networking game just like Google is in the web search space.

Google now pushes out algorithm changes and that makes website's traffic go up and down with no control. People who ranked on top for high quality articles for over decade were suddenly pushed down to page 100 in rankings; almost destroying the web sites. CrazyEngineers too suffered something similar in early September. A lot of our quality discussions were pushed down in rankings because of some algorithm change (not Panda, Penguin or EMD).

Now most of the webmasters who rely on Google for traffic dance to Google's tunes. Google now tells you where to put advertisements, how to design your website, defines the 'user experience' for you and shamelessly favors the 'big' brands.

Yes they did change the .com domain to .in and that made several bloggers panic. All the 'SEO' they had implemented was suddenly less effective and there's no immediate fix. Unless Google acknowledges the changes and restores your ranks, there's nothing you can do - and Google does take quite some time to address the changes, updates etc.

Power Corrupts!

Yes, it's happened with my blog. I had put in a lot of work on the blog, thanks to the help i got from #-Link-Snipped-# and CE. But then again, time is now an issue and I can't concentrate enough to restore my status back to the old state. It's really a 😖 feeling!
