nice post there.

people tend to overlook what a blog’s purpose really is. newbies in the blogsphere tend to fall for all those no-no’s (admittedly, I’m one of those before).
thanks for this insight though.

You’re forgetting another vital ingregient of a blog…actually having something to say! So many writers out there jsut babble on inanely about nothing when readers want interest and information. A balance is key to a successful blog.

#4 is the most overlooked of all the points. If you’re blogging only to make money, your posts will reflect that, whether you’re conscious of that or not. A blogger who treats writing as a job comes off as boring and stiff. There are so many other blogs out there, that people won’t give a second thought to just packing up and moving on. You need to keep your posts casual and upbeat if you’re to really get people to stick around.

I see your points are reasonable. My blog is three months old, going to the fourth month. i have put some ads already, but not exactly to make money, but in the hope of later on after a month or so after placing those ads i will review them for my readers.

It’s also important to write about a topic of interest to you. If you are passionate about your blog’s topic, your readers will be more engaged and trust you more as an expert. This will lead to readership growth and more revenue opportunities. It takes time though, but it’s worth the effort.

Frankly speaking this is often the mistakes that new bloggers are creating. They are so intent on earning the moment their blog goes live, overlooking the fact that people ACTUALLY do care about content, let alone paid advertising. I found a site somewhere that wrote about the proper placement of ads that not only generates but also doesn’t annoy readers.

My blog started to make very little money in comparison to before and I concerned about because of that. I knew that I have to make some adjustments but I did not exactly know what. I think,I am now understand the essence of the problem.

It is very tough to get constant desired traffic on our blog. It requires lots of hard work to earn money from our blog site.

You have give your dedicated white hat seo efforts to your blog. But you definitely get traffic and also earn moeny..

Even i have also earned $200 from google adsense though my one blog site.

Best of luck

After trying many ads solutions on my blog, I found that the the combination of Adsense together with Infolinks is the best way to monetize my blog. Infolinks is considered the highest paying in text ads provider since they pay me 80% revenue share!!!

These are some very good points. A lot of people expect to just start a blog and instantly be making cash, and it isn’t that simple. It takes a lot of hard work to start bringing in a significant amount of traffic and therefore money.
