If you've ever tried to market online and perhaps you've asked yourself, "how do blogs make money"...
because YOU'RE getting nowhere, it's not your fault! I used to think that blogging could make me money on the internet.
And, after four years, I've discovered the truth...
But exactly how DO blogs make money? People DO BUY stuff from your blog...
AFTER you have made a name for yourself and after they know, like and trust you...
So, once I'm rich and famous, I'm sure people will simply go to Google and type in my name, and then they'll see my blog! LOL But, OK, I'll stop the dreaming for the time being to reveal to you the REAL truth about blogging.
The reason why people all over the world are wondering, "how DO blogs make money" is because, as a rule, they don't, unless used with a LOT of other tools...
The thing is, when your goal is making money from home, how in the heck are you supposed to get people to want to read your blog in the first place? Ah...
that's the dilemma! See, with internet marketing, it's really all about the numbers...
You need to calculate your statistics within your system, and then work backwards.
You want to make $5000 a month, so that's how many sales? So then, based on the statistics, how many leads would you need? If 25% of the people clicking on your ad decide to enter their email address and become your lead, then you will need four times as many clicks on your ad.
But getting back to why you're here - how to blogs make money? So where exactly does blogging come in? I use my blog as a tool to get back to my interested leads.
When someone on Facebook messages me and asks me about the program, I just send a link to my blog.
When I create an email to go out, I send a link to my blog.
This creates more interaction and more possibilities for people to like and share your posts.
But in reality, the blog alone does NOT depict a way to make real money online.
If you notice, anyone out there who's bringing in big cash on a regular basis participates in paid marketing strategies.
However, when you're first starting out to make money online, it's not advisable to dive into paid marketing because it's just ALL TOO EASY to lose everything you've got! Although if you have a reputable traffic resource, the idea is to start off with buying the traffic - and then simply taking a screen shot of your results and posting on your blog, Facebook, videos, and, well, just about anywhere you can think of.
I've actually doubled my results this way - just first get the sales - then get more sales.
Because, well, nobody wants to join someone who doesn't know what they're doing.
Would you?
