Blogger's Common Question #1 - How Much Money Can I Earn Blogging?

I believe if we took a study of all the bloggers out there in the blogosphere as well as those that are considering becoming a citizen of the blogosphere, what is the figure 1 inquiry you had, Idaho be surprised if the most common 1 isn't how much money can I do blogging?. I acknowledge that this was the first 1 in my mind, along with tons of others. So you've probably done what I have got done already and gone out to the top ranking blogs and tried to happen out how much they are making. Some print their earnings, others don't (how un-nice of them!).

Is there an reply to this question? I think it could be similar to how long is a piece of string?. Your money devising ability is dependent on so many things. I cognize thats not the reply you desire to hear but its true. Its dependent on the followers factors:

1. The money devising ability of the niche topic you've chosen - i.e. is there things that people will pass money on in this niche. Its no good having a highly ranked blog about octopus tentacles drying, for example, if there is nil that people will desire to pass money on (I'm yet to happen an eBook about Octopus Tentacle Drying);

2. How much competition in your niche. This impacts your money devising ability because if there are other rivals offering the same merchandises or listing the same ads, then this volition have got a direct impact on how much money you can do on your ain blog;

3. How good you'll be at capturing the Black Maria and heads of the visitants to your blog so as to acquire them to purchase material or chink on links;

4. The merchandises that you are promoting or the advertisements that you have got listed.

5. Obviously how good you are at generating traffic to your site.

Plus many other things.

I believe as a very full general regulation of thumb, if you have got a popular blog with some nice traffic coming in each calendar month and you are promoting some good products, you should work at a monthly income of around the $US10k/mth which should take about 12 calendar months to acquire to that level. Obviously some calendar months may be higher, and others maybe lower.
