The statistic is really staggering. Only one

percent of those who start a blog succeed to

monetize the site. However, the good news is those

who did succeed as bloggers are able to earn enough

money to live comfortable while working in the

comforts of their home. In fact, there are a number

of bloggers out there that are earning a good five

digit income a year. The truth is that blogging can

be a very lucrative online home business if and

only if you have the talent and the right attitude

towards your business.

What makes some fail while others succeed?

Successful bloggers invested a lot of time, efforts

and talents into their site. They believe that

writing a blog is not just a hobby that they can do

during their spare time but rather something that

should be taken seriously. In other words,

blogging is not just about writing something, it's

about writing something interesting for the

readers. To become a successful, bloggers must

anticipate what his or her readers want to read.

They must know how to hold the interest of their

readers. Once a blogger gets the attention of his

or her readers, there is a big chance that these

readers will keep coming back to read more of what

the blogger has to say. As the traffic to the site

increases, there is now a high potential to earn

money through the site.

Monetizing your blog

Some writers feel rather strongly about putting ads

on their blog. These writers believe that having all

those icons, banners and logo all over their site

is taboo. Sure, nobody really wants to put so many

ads on their site but the thing is advertisements

bring in the money. If your site has huge traffic

and you want to monetize your blog, you must be

prepared to set aside some space for your

advertisers. You must design your site in such a

way that it will be easy for advertisers to put up

their logo. A word of caution though, you must not

put too many advertisements in your site otherwise

your site will become too crowded and difficult to

navigate. Most readers would shy away from blogs

that are difficult to navigate and if you lose your

readers, you will lose your income. Most online

advertisers pay the site owners according to the

number of views or clicks made on their ads. If the

traffic to your site decreases, naturally, your

income will be affected.

Another way of earning money through your blog is

through affiliate programs. Choose an affiliate

program that is relevant to the contents of your

blog. For instance, if your blog is all about

children and parenting, it would be wise to join

affiliate programs that are selling products for

children.
