"Show me the money!" That was a joke from an awesome movie called Jerry Maguire, but when you really think about it, isn't that what we bloggers are all saying? We all want to know that the path that we're on is one that will actually make money, and make money for a long time to come. I have a wife and two children to take care of, so I definitely want to make sure that anything I do is actually going to support them. After all, shoes aren't cheap and boy, does my wife love shoes!
Back on the topic at hand here, you have to have a solid plan to make money online through a blog. Far too many people jump onto the blogging train and get discouraged because they never realized that the money wouldn't be as automatic as they imagined it would be.
The key to really getting things rolling is to think about the actual components of monetizing your blog. Monetization is just a fancy term for "the shiny things that will put money into your account, courtesy of your blog". If you keep that in mind, you won't have any problems later down the road.
There are a lot of different revenue streams available for your blog, and plenty of ways to implement them. One of the most straightforward methods is through Google Adsense, which is passive income at its finest. However, not everyone will be able to qualify for the Adsense program, or even desire to be part of the program in the first place.
Your next task, should you choose to accept it, will be to look at other ways to directly bring money into your account courtesy of that new blog of yours. Now, you have to remember that this will take some time before things really get rolling along. You need to consider the fact that your blog still needs to get the proper traffic in place to really see good financials.
However, if you put together a working plan for monetization, the money you want to earn from your blog will be there before you know it!
