Now let us assume that you have a huge amount of traffic and you want to make some money off it, how do you do this?
Seriously speaking there are a billion ways of doing this. We will
discuss some of the basic and most straight forward ways. You can be
creative and come up with other ways on your own.
The simplest and easiest way: Use Adsense!
Adsense is basically a Google advertising program. If you have a
blog on Blogger.com then using adsense is very simple and so we
recommend that you use Blogger.com to blog.
Signing up for Adsense is pretty simple. You can do it right from the
panel that Blogger.com gives you though their “Adsense
Tool”. Check out the picture blow:
If you are unclear what Adsense adds are and how Adsense adds look,
take a look at the picture blow. (It's the add under the mouse pointer.)
Once you have these adds on your site, if anyone clicks on the adds,
you will get paid. Generally, you will get paid $0.10-$0.55 (Rs.4
– Rs.25) per click depending on the type of adds you have. Some
adds even pay up to Rs.45 or 1$ per click.
The adds that appear on your blog depend on the content of your blog.
If your blog is about “cooking” you will get cooking adds.
If your blog is about “real estate” you will get
“real estate” adds. This is great, because the people who
come to a “real estate” blog are probably interested in
real estate. If you have real estate adds then they are more likely to
click the adds and make you some money.
On the other hand, if you have a cooking blog and real estate adds
then none of your readers are going to be interested in real estate so
no one will click on your adds. The best part about Adsense is that it
handles the displaying of the adds on its own and it matches the
content and the adds.
However, if you want to be really successful with Adsense, your add
placement and colors have to be done right. You always want your adds
to blend into your blog. You don’t want your adds to stand out
and look as if they are not part of your blog. If they stand out, then
they are less likely to be clicked and you are less likely to make any
money.
Adsense allows you to choose all the colors of your add. When choosing
your add, make sure that the background color of your add is the same
as the background color of the place you are placing the add on your
blog. Make sure that the text color of your add is the same as the text
color of your blog’s text. Make sure that the colour of the links
in your add are the same as the color of the links in your blog. If you
do this, your adds will blend in perfectly and is much more likely to
get clicked and make you money.
There is a lot more to learn about Adsense and add placement and
colors. But, as you start playing the game you will learn it on your
own. Choosing the right colors etc. of your add comes with experience
and over time you will learn all of this.
One important thing:
You may think that if Google is paying per click, then all you have to
do is click the adds on your blog again and again and again and you
will make a whole lot of money. THIS IS A BAD IDEA! Don’t do
this. If Google finds out that you are trying to “click
fraud” them you will not have a blog, nor will you have Adsense
adds, they will take away any money you have made. Google has all
sorts of ways to find out wheter a particular click is a fraud or is
real.
How does Google pay you?
Google pays you though check that will be delivered though mail to
your door-step. Google pays you at the end of every month. However, it
will only pay if you have reached 100$. If you have not, the money will
be carry forwarded to the next month.
Technically speaking, you can start Adsense on your blog right from the
start. You don’t need a large amount of traffic to start adsense.
However, if you have only a few visitors per day, the amount you make
from adsense will be minimal. This might get discouraging.
Adsense is only one of the ways to make money off your blog. We have
talked about Adsense here because it is the easiest way for Indians to
make money on the Internet. There are may other programmes and some of
them don't pay in India and others require you to use credit cards. So
Adsense is safe and secure and 100% works.
To make money though your high traffic blog, you could also join an
Affiliate program, run your own adds, sell products and endorse
products etc. etc. You will understand all these in due time.
So, that is how you make money online though your blog. Hard
isn’t it? Well, when you start doing all these things it will get
even harder and more frustrating. But don’t give up. You are
working to earn Rs.9000/- per day!! So work! Work hard! Work as hard as
possible!
However, there is another simpler option you have for making money
online. You still have to do work but a little less work and you will
earn depending on how much your work.
