How to profit from your blog

Many people are trying to profit from their blogs.  But most don't know how to go about doing it.  I will explain a few ways you can easily see profits from you blog.

Just like any other income stream it will take some work and dedication.  The first key to having a profitable blog is traffic.  If you do not have a steady traffic stream you will not have a steady income stream.  There are many ways to gain traffic (see posts Free Traffic, Backlinks).

Once you have established your traffic streams you will then want to figure out what kind of advertising you want to incorporate into your blog.  If you are using blogger there is a tab called Monetize which is an easy ad on for Google's AdSense.  You have to sign up for AdSense and get approved but after your approval it is a matter of a few clicks and you will start to see income.

Another way to make money with your blog is to sell ad space to specific vendors.  This may take a little more effort on your part finding companies to pay you for ad space but, if you have a high traffic stream (5000) hits per day you can make some substantial amounts of money using this method.

Affiliate programs are yet another stream you can incorporate into your blog.  The main site that is very well known and highly recommended by myself and many other Internet Marketers is ClickBank.  This is a site that allows you to sell other peoples products for a commission.  This can be a great way to generate profits for a more targeted audience due to the fact that it is one specific product.

There are many other ways to use your blog to capture leads for MLM programs and many other programs out there it is just a matter of building close relationships with people and eventually building a team to support you and all the members in it.

The possibilities are endless

How do you profit from your blog?
