Is it possible to earn money writing articles for your blog?
There are many people who have tried and most have failed. However, there are other writers who not only make a decent income from their blog, but some of them earn more than a full-time salary.
So what do they do well? Why are your blog posts so popular and how do you make money blogging?
Well, for starters, if you want to write articles for your blog, there are three important things to consider before you begin. But once you know what they are, you can boost your blogging career.
Know your reason for writing articles.
This is really important. You have to really (and I mean literally) think hard about why you want to write articles. Once you have your reason, then every article you write can work like a soldier for you, going out to achieve your goal of article writing, as long as you know what that is.
How are you going to make money?
There are several different ways to make money writing articles for your blog. You can write them to make money with PPC advertising, to sell a product, to sell a service, or to do affiliate marketing (or you can choose to use all of these). Once you know how you want to make money from your blog, you can write articles that will attract the most targeted readers so you can maximize your blog income.
What action are you looking for?
You also need to know what action you want your readers to take. Once they finish reading your articles, they always want to do something, so you have to know what it is.
Do you want them to click on a PPC ad? To make a purchase? To join your email list? Read about a service you offer? To register for more information? Make sure what you want them to do, and then tell them to do it.
And most importantly, don’t forget that all your articles/posts should read like a story so your readers will keep reading. In other words, make sure each article has a beginning, a middle, and an end.
Start with an introduction of what you are going to tell them, tell them, then tell them how this information can help them and what to do next.
That way all your articles can be your army of soldiers, helping you make money from everything you write.
