Many successful bloggers make money from home by monetizing their blogs or website with Google Adsense or Yahoo Publisher Network.
You will not make money from home through blogging if you don't study or read successful bloggers' blogs. Blogging will become a lucrative home business if you are really serious with it.
I have made 45,000 US dollars by combining my brick and mortar home bookselling business( Xavier Bookstore) with an online store. It was not an easy business at first. I only got 150 US dollars profit in the first month of my bookstore two years ago. Now I can get a lot of money selling books from home and through online store.You don't like selling? No, problem. When you blog, it means you sell your writing. Although you don't go door to door offering your articles. Uploading your posts to the internet can be considered as selling your knowledge to your blog visitors. I wonder how successful bloggers can make money from home just by blogging. I visit their websites and blogs. I read their hit counters and I study the lay-out as well as the content of their blogs.I come to some conclusions:
1. They write at least one post every day. Some even write between two and five posts.2. They only focus on certain topics. Blogger like Ken Savage who owns Battle Diabetes Blog gets around 40,000 US dollars annually just by writing popular articles about Diabetes. Another one such as Chris Bloczynski focuses on blogging.
3. They maintain their visitors by providing RSS and e-mail subscriptions. This is the most important part of maintaining loyal visitors.
It is important to inform your readers once you have just uploaded articles to your blog. In the past you have to send email to all the members of your blog or website. Now, there is feed burner or yahoogroups that can do the job for you. Just visit most of the successful blogs. You'll find that they provide e-mail subscription form in their blogs.
I also do the same. I build my own English learning community by providing e-mail subscription form on the top right corner of my Englishland website. I also provide similar form in my blog. You may ask, "is it effective in attracting repeat visitors?" Yes, definitely! If you really want to increase repeat visitors to your website or blog, don't forget to build your own community using rss feed or e-mail subscription form. Believe me, you will get more loyal visitors and at the same time increase your monthly earnings. by Charles Roring in Manokwari Indonesia
