How To Make Money Blogging – 5 Step Blog Profit Plan

Blogging is one of the easiest ways to make money online. Unfortunately, I see to many people focused on SEO and ranks and not enough on what pays the bills – sharing!

Focus on SEO – $0

Ranking are great, don’t get me wrong. But too much focus on SEO and you lose sight of what your blogs all about- sharing great info!

Focus on Sharing – $Unlimited

Bloggers who share opinions, insights, and resources are the ones who make bank. Get the basic SEO up and then concentrate on sharing.

Step 1: Pick a profitable niche

A profitable niche has four qualities. It has people who are willing to spend money on themselves or their loves ones. It has consumers that want to better their lives for some reason. It has info products for sale books or digital courses. It has tangible item or tools they can buy.

Step 2: Find out what they need

Profitable bloggers go out and research what their niche needs. They never assume. They read comments on amazon reviews. They peek in on forum and other blogs. They read trade magazines to see what’s at the forefront of the niche. And when they start building a community, they listen to those who contact them. (That’s why this infographic was created, by the way).

Step 3: Sell it to them

One of the most profitable ways you can make money on your blog is to be an info product creator. If someone asks how to keep their golf ball from starting off to the left and then veering right, you put out a guide on how to stop slicing. Research it, outline, share the information for fee. Authors of books (digital or physical) are “experts” in the eyes of most people.

Step 4: Tell them where to buy it

There are many other info products that you can promote as an affiliate, buy them. Implement them on your blog. That builds trust and loyalty. Also promote tangible item on Amazon.com or other sites where you can earn commission when they buy through your link. Always be protective over your people – never lie.

Step 5: Spread the word and get paid

Tweet your blog posts, put them on Google+, put them Pinterest, share them on Facebook and have a plugin that allows others to do the same. When you start sharing and people start trusting you, you’ll get conversions – and payment through pay pal instantly, Clickbank every 2 weeks and Amazon monthly.
