I'm not going to lie and say that you will get rich by blogging because we all know that's an outright lie but there are a few tricks and tools to make some residual income from your blogs. The first thing is to have a niche blog for a specific tasks, like baking cookies or polka music or whatever your niche happens to be. The second thing is to create tags and links so people will find you and your blog easily. Create a blog that is proportionately dense with your target key words so that search engines will target your blog.
Write something you know about very well that you can share your personal knowledge and insight in such a way that will benefit your readers. Write in an easy to understand way and avoid using too much jargon. Keep the topic entertaining and relevant. There are a few sites that many bloggers do well with and gain residual income from ads they place there as well. Here's a few websites to explore:
Squidoo.com is a great site that fine tunes blogs into very specific "lenses" where they focus on a specific topic and a target audience. They also provide a few means to make residual income on this site as well. It's highly recommended that you have a laser focus on your topic. Also try not to use material that will not be easily dated.
Redgage.com is another great site much like other social media it actually pays you based on the value of your content.
Helium.com allows you to post original content that you agree to give up the rights to for one year in exchange for residual income from advertising in relation to your article. The better written your article is the more traffic you can expect. The downside with this website is you have to provide content in order not to lose your adverting shares. The good news is this site receives a good amount of traffic and also has a good following.
Another easy way to make money on your blog is pay per click sites, these are some of the most profitable pay per click sites to try:
Adsense by Google which is very easy to use on blogger but you must have the right amount of traffic and content to be accepted.
Amazon Associates Program allows you to build ads, tie in merchandise with your ads and build a store with products linked to your page and build revenue from a percentage of the sales. You can also make free money on referrals for Amazon Prime free trials.
Hoveringads.com allows you to avoid obnoxious pop-up ads that will only annoy and distract your readers. It places a small but readable add on the side of you page that hovers but which is not bothersome.
