How to Get Income from Blogs Up to Hundreds of Million Even Billions per Month

I remember one of my friends saying this:

"These bloggers write complete information, can be accessed without payment, what for?"

Then my other friend answered "Maybe it's less work, mostly free time".

... great blogger?

If you often search for information through Google, indeed most of the answers must come from blogs.

This means that blogs are the best source of online knowledge.

But bloggers write information on the internet not because they "lack work" ...

... not because I'm unemployed anymore,

But because they can get money from their blogs.

A blogger whose blog has been successful is able to produce more than $ 100,000 or IDR 1 billion every month.

... great is it a blogger?

In this guide, I will tell you how to make money from blogs and how to make your blog a business.



Part 1 - These are the things you MUST know
a.k.a. The mindset of a successful blogger.

I want to tell you how to create a blog that can produce at least hundreds of millions per month.

Not "just" millions or tens of millions.

The method is not the same, in the process and planning there are several things that you must apply.

First, this is what I need to tell:

90% of what you read in forums and internet marketing blogs is nonsense.

Serious.

I am not exaggerating.

Even when I interview successful bloggers, they also don't do 90% of the ridiculous things taught in forums and blogs. Read for yourself if you don't believe it.

Therefore, forget about 90% of things that are a waste of time.

I will teach you to focus on the remaining 10%.

10 vs 90
Let's start…

... here are 8 facts you need to know:

# 1 Blogging is not the easiest way to get money
Yes…

Blogging results are not instant, need high patience.

Those who are successful in blogging are those who really like the world ... not only because they are hooked on money.

Bloggers must be consistent.

You cannot immediately earn income on the first day.

Maybe even after 6 months - 1 year of consistent blogging, then you can start earning income to support life.

In the span of months you must consistently write and develop a blog without being paid a penny.

This means ...

If you are currently in need of quick income, DO NOT create a blog to earn money. It's useless, a week later it must have been bored.

But if you need a hobby or a side job that has the potential to be a source of income, please continue.

If you need income in a short time, blogging is not the answer.

# 2 Getting income = getting traffic
This is the most important point you should know.

By the way, the article you're reading has been edited many times.

When first published, many protested:

He said "This is an article about getting money, why are you discussing ways to develop a blog instead. Isn't the way to get the money? "

This is ...

Without traffic, it is impossible to get income.

Therefore, to be able to get money, your main focus is traffic.

I do not know where the source of income from, it's up to you ...

…the same.

Want to use AdSense ads, personal ads, affiliate marketing, selling your own products, selling services / services, all the same.

The important thing is to have traffic first:

Earn money from websites
Therefore, what is discussed in this article are strategies for developing blogs and getting traffic.

Whatever your blog's income source, it is impossible to make money without traffic.


There is no source of income that can bring money if you are not able to bring visitors to the blog.

# 3 Therefore, don't think of income before you have 100 visitors per day
If you are busy thinking about money, then your focus will be divided between developing a blog and earning money.

Our main focus, still, is to develop a blog.

If you have managed to get 100 visitors per day, then start thinking about how to get money from the blog.

Oh yes, one more thing ...

Indonesian language blogs should be a minimum of 500 visitors per day.

# 4 SEO is important, but don't waste time with SEO

SEO techniques are important, but actually not important for bloggers.

Wow, how about ...

This is what I mean ... SEO is a diverse science, from A-Z. There are knowledge in SEO that you need to know, but most don't need to be bothered.

This is what you should know:

Like what the principle works
Why can a website enter page 1
The terms
How can our blog be ranked 1
But remember:

The determining factor for the success of the blog is not SEO.

What determines the success of your blog is the quality of the content and the way you do marketing.

SEO is a supporting science.

Bloggers are often confused with this SEO business (even though it's not important):

Website speed
SEO score
SEO friendly template
Mobile-friendly / responsive
Looking for backlinks from blogwalking, social bookmarking, guestbooks, etc.
The blog is the simplest form of website. Even though you don't do optimization number 1-4, your blog can still enter page 1.

The effect is almost zero.

Whereas number 5, such backlinks have no effect at all. This is how to get the right backlink.

Okay, SEO is important ...

... but most of SEO for blogs is located in content creation and marketing. 2 things are the most important.

These 5 things are not important.

Do not believe?

Try choosing one of the biggest blogs you know. Then check the SEO score from any checking site, it's up to you.

Most of the scores are below average.

I take the example of Quicksprout, the biggest blog in the world that discusses SEO and online marketing:

# 5Try to avoid using AdSense as a source of income

The revenue from the ad is MUCH smaller than the others.

The reason?

Earnings per click on AdSense averaged only $ 0.04 with a click ratio (RTK or CTR) averaging under 3%.

This means that if we have 10,000 visitors a day, only 300 people click on ads. 300 people multiplied by $ 0.04 means your income is only $ 12 a day.

From 10 thousand only $ 12!

Crazy.

Even if you have that many visitors and with other sources of income, your income per day can be more than a million.

Imagine:

If you sell digital products or promote affiliate products, suppose the profit per sale is $ 5 (my value is very low).

# 6 Avoid publishing too much blog content if you can't

How often should a new blog publish content?

1 article a day? 2 articles a day? or 10 articles a day?

... depending on the type of your blog.

But it's usually once a day, mostly, especially if you're just a writer by yourself. Hurry tired first before success.

In theory, indeed blogs that publish many articles will be faster crowded.

... because there are more articles, more are appearing on search engines, more share, finally more visitors.

But the reality is not that easy.

For new bloggers, it's not easy to make lots of quality content in a short time. If you publish a lot of content, the quality will decrease.

In conclusion, frequency does not affect success.

Quality is what determines.

Tip: publish 1-3 content per week for a new blog so that your writing ability increases, after a few weeks adjusting the frequency and increasing its quality.

3. Find the biggest problems in the topic you choose

There are 2 content themes that are most commonly used in blogging:

Guide

Information

Both of these themes aim to solve the problem of the reader.

So if you want to successfully attract visitors to your blog, the content provided must be able to solve their problems.

This is based on my experience:

For new blogs, the fastest way to succeed is to provide content in the form of solutions to the biggest problems that are on the topic.

Biggest problem.

This is always the main problem for people who are new to the main topic of your blog.

For example:

If I make a blog about the world of work.

The biggest problem in the topic is one of them is "how to get a job". Right?

So when the blog is new, use that problem as a content topic.

I also did this method when creating this guideIM blog.

4. Create the best content that solves the biggest problems

This…

If you can't do this, don't expect to create a blog that is worth hundreds of millions dollar.

Try thinking:

If in a topic there is already an article that has quite good quality. Then you make lower quality articles.

Can it be more successful than the first?

Impossible!

So every content you make must be the best than others.

Still remember I said that you should not need to publish content too often?

That is the reason.

It's better to focus on making 1 piece of the highest quality content, rather than making 10 mediocre content. Because mediocre content won't be popular, no matter how many.

High quality content takes longer to make.

5. Promote your best content to get an explosion of visitors

I am often asked like this by readers:

"I already have a lot of content on the blog, why don't I have many visitors? Why can't it be ranked first on Google? "

Then I ask back:

"What content has been promoted?"

Usually the answer isn't ...

... yes it's natural that if it's still quiet, where can other people suddenly magically meet with your content if you don't tell them?

This is what distinguishes successful and failed bloggers.

Those who are successful actively promote the best content.

While those who failed only waited for rankings on Google.

Content as good as anything will never be popular if it's not promoted. Don't also expect to get rank 1 on Google if you don't try to promote content.

6. Build reputation, credibility, and relationships with prospective readers

Remember when you use Google Search to find information.

There are 2 types of websites:

First, a 'normal' website:

Whether because the content is not good, the design is not attractive, or because the owner does not invite us to interact. After reading, we never remember this blog.

Second, the 'special' website:

Websites that are different from other websites, are better. When finished reading, it feels like to save / bookmark the page, like / follow his account, then subscribe to his blog.

The second type of website that will succeed.

If you want to create a second type of blog, do this:

Actively contribute to the right community

Invite readers to like / follow your social account

Do list building

Talk to your readers

This is 10% of things that most bloggers don't do (as I explained earlier).

Even though the fourth is the key to the success of the blog.

Beginner bloggers usually prefer to spend time fiddling with views, plugins, speed, and some less important SEO matters.

The important things like creating quality content and promotion are ignored.

Part III - Determine the blog's revenue source

This is actually not important for me to explain ...

... you will know for yourself.

But because I was "mugged" by all the readers to explain some of the sources of income for the blog, I explained it here.

Before we go on, remember:

Whatever income source you use, it doesn't matter. The important thing is traffic / visitors because without visitors there is no income.

So, my advice, don't bother here.

The following are 4 types of blog revenue sources sorted from the highest potential profits to the lowest.

1. Making products

Products are the best choice for earning income from blogs. This is because the profits are 100% yours, not shared with other parties.

There are 2 types of products that you can make:

Digital and physical.

Digital products mean products that are on your computer without physical form.

Here are some examples of digital products:

Ebook

Tutorial video

ecourse, online course

Webinar (Web seminar)

Paid membership

Photos and audio

Applications, templates, plugins

SaaS (Software as a Service)

Website (buying and selling websites)

Some examples such as ebook, video, ecourse, are very easy to make.

Almost the same as making ordinary content, only in other forms.

If you are interested in making digital products, follow this online business guide.

And here is an example of a physical product:

Book

DVD

Course / class

Creative products

Manufacturing products

Merchandise

As a blogger, you should have a long-term plan to make products ...

... whether it's physical or digital.

Because if you only rely on advertising, your blog's income will be small.

Blogs are a very good place to promote products, especially if you already have loyal readers. They will faithfully buy products from you.

Oh yes the products sold must be the same category as the blog.

2. Affiliate program (Affiliate program)

There are also people who don't want to make their own products.

The reason is because of the difficulty of the manufacturing process, managing the payment, and managing the customer service.

Therefore, becoming an affiliate marketer can be a good alternative.

The process is like this:

You choose affiliate products to sell. Then you promote the product. When a visitor buys from you, you will get a commission.

So we get a percentage of the price of the product.

affiliate marketing

There are 2 ways you can start promoting affiliate products. First, by joining the Affiliate Network. Second, by searching for existing individual affiliate programs.

Here are some examples of popular affiliate networks:

Amazon - physical product

Clickbank - digital product

ShareASale - various products and services

CJ - various products and services

Rakuten Linkshare - various products and services

WarriorPlus, JVZoo - internet marketing product

Envato - a product for web developers and graphic design

3. Services or services

You can also sell services that match the main topic of your blog.

For example, if you have a blog about business management, then you can create business management training or business management consulting services.

Here are some examples of service sales that can be done through a blog:

Web developer

App developer

Graphic design

Social media manager

Speaker

Coach / tutor

Author

In general, service prices are higher than product prices.

Even so, it does not mean the service is always better. The reason is because to sell services, the time we spend is higher than the product.

But this depends again on your own wishes.

4. Publisher ads

The ads that I mean here are not just AdSense and other ad networks, there are many other types of ads that you can use.

Here are some types of ads:

Pay per Post, paid for each article you write

Text link, an advertisement in the form of a link

Job vacancy

Sponsorship

Ad Network (AdSense)

Not that AdSense isn't good ...

... but the ratio of income from advertising is MUCH smaller than if you sell your own product or service.

So the hard work you have done is not an optimal income.

Even so, there are conditions where AdSense is the only choice:

First, if there are no products / services that can be sold related to your blog. For example, blogs that contain entertainment content or blogs with many topics.

So that no product can be sold.

Another case, if you have more than 1 blog so that you don't have time to make many products or even sell services for each of their blogs.

In these two conditions advertising is the only choice.

Now, it's your turn…

Being a blogger is a noble job.

We provide valuable information to others ... for free. We help many people to solve problems by providing solutions.

And while doing positive things like that, we get income.

But unfortunately there are 2 things:

First, there is still a lot of misinformation about the blog.

Blogging guides in Indonesia are many that are wrong, expired, and trapping for novice bloggers.

So many bloggers who misunderstand and fail.

Second, many bloggers like to harm others.

... whether intentional or not.

For example by writing content that the information in it is not credible. Imagine if there were health articles written carelessly, this could be dangerous for others.

Therefore, make a blog the right way.

Create quality content, make sure the content is useful for others, then promote ethically.
