How I Make Money Blogging

I am e-mailed nearly everyday on how I make money from blogging. I love your e-mails, but truthfully, I’m not positive that everything I do actually works. I have learned a lot from other bloggers.

I include an extra money update every month ($994 in June, $672 in May, $485 in March, and more in other months as well). A lot of my monthly income is from blogging income.

As most of you know, I also started blogging in August of 2011. My blog is almost 1 year old and while I have a way to go, I do think I have been doing ok.

I didn’t actually start to monetize from my blog until around December of 2011. Much thanks to Crystal. She runs an advertising service which has helped me greatly! I don’t make all of my blog income from her, but I have learned how to talk to advertisers and other things.

Crystal started Budgeting in the Fun Stuff in February 2010 and she then grew it into a site which has made more than $42,000 as of the end of June of 2012.

She is doing really great! She has also bought other websites and co-owns some as well, which increases her blog income even more.  She was able to leave her $35,000 a year job and now works from home.

She has now written an ebook so that all of us can learn her secrets and hopefully do something similar to what she has done.

What’s included in her book?

• Her Background with Blogging
• Picking a Name, Host, and Blogging Platform
• Main Parts of a Blog
• Building Up Your Blog
• Making Connections
• Search Engine Optimization
• Plugins
• Rankings
• Types of Ads
• Ad Rates
• Handling Offers
• Tracking your Ads
• Other Ways to Make Money Blogging
• Action Plan to Get You Started Right Now

The price for her ebook is $17 in July and will go up after that. Get yours hands on it while you can!

As a disclosure, I was not paid to write this post, and everything was written by me. I honestly do think Crystal is very smart in the blogging world and that she has tons of tips to share. I do get a portion of sales if you buy through my link though.
