How to make money Blogging

There are a lot of blogging sites but the easiest and fastest way to get set up is to use Blogger by Google. It is free and you can post ads. The format might not be great but you can grab other formats such as wordpress and convert them to Blogger. Look at my blog about gaming it is in the hemingway for wordpress: http://jades-lair.blogspot.com/

Adsense is put on by Google and you get paid per click, You can set up an account here: https://www.google.com/adsense/login/en_US/
I have set up an adsense account so you will se some google ads like these on there:




I have also set up an account with amazon.com and post ads for products that are relevent to what I am blogging about. Here is an ad that I customized by changing the color, you can also do banners and set up a store. Here is my store, you should be able to do better I haven't put that much time into it. http://astore.amazon.com/jadeslairsgam-20

You can set up an amazon account here: http://60b4c393.linkbucks.com/

Now you will notice that the link says linkbucks.com that is because I directed it to say that. It will show a short ad before it goes to that page and I will Get paid for that. It could also be set up as just showing a banner or a pop=up, what ever you want to do. Some ways make more money than others and linkbucks tells you how much they pay when you set up the link. Now you might say why would I want to annoy my viewers, your not, they were leaving anyway. Here is where you can sign up for linkbucks:


Those are some of the ways to get paid but you still need to generate traffic, I generate traffic to my blog from youtube. I post vids there and in the description I say "check out this page for more info" or something like that. You don't have to do that you will get traffic from search engines if you create quality content but if you have extra time you should promote your site. Promote it anywhere you can post in forums that have the same topics. For example I post info about video games, so in gamer forums I post links to my vids or blog and get a lot of traffic that way.

Thanks for reading, more to come.
