How can I start a blog and get paid for it?

October 17, 2009

Does anyone know the criteria for starting a blog? I have a great idea and a friend insists that I can get paid. I am a divorced mother of 4 and struggling to make ends meet. I am also an idiot when it comes to the internet so I apologize if this is such a well known thing, but I love to write, I have a great idea, and if I can get paid for it, it would be awesome! Thanks for all the suggestions!

  1. One of the easiest, most popular and profitable ways to generate an additional income stream from your blog/s is to do some paid posting through paid blogging networks. Connecting paying advertisers with bloggers-for-hire, paid blogging networks simply act as a bridge or middle-man.

    Bloggers are basically paid to write and post their opinions and reviews of advertiser websites, products and/or services. But, because each paid blogging network is different – rules, guidelines and requirements vary.

    Being professional and consistent are key in order to build a good reputation for yourself. Making money through paid blogging and posting can earn you a realistic $100 to $500 or more per month with each blog.

    Some good sites that you might want to check out are
    payperpost . com
    smorty . com
    reviewme . com
    loudlaunch . com
    blogitive . com
    bloggingads . com
    payu2blog . com

    Apply to as many of the above listed paid blogging network sites as possible. Why? Your blog may not be accepted or approved by some companies, so you’re going to want to make sure that you’re getting every opportunity possible to get paid to blog.

    After applying, be patient. Some networks have a fast approval process, while others seem to take forever.

    Write, blog and make money! Good Luck!

  2. Slow down

    1. There is no criteria, if you are willing, you can do it. Just like asking question on Yahoo

    2. You might want to be careful sharing certain ideas, some ideas once shared, will not compensate you

    3. Starting a blog is easy, you can use your Yahoo account, or get one at Blogspot.com

    4. Being an idiot to the internet is OK, but start writing, and see how your readership increases, don’t think about money when you hear people talk about it.

    5. Sometimes friends like to encourage, but be careful about getting your hopes up, you get what you pay for and you’re paid what you’re worth most of the time.

    6. One step at a time, you’ll have a fun and valuable lesson. I also suggest getting a twitter account to promote your blog

  3. get a google account on google.com
    make a blog like it says above on blogger
    make an adsense account on google.com/adsense (i think its the same as google account)

    on your blogg click monetize its i think on the left…. after that advertize3 how you want and you get about 5 cents per every click on an advertisement that they put on your blog

    hope it helps
