Makin’ Money On The Internet! Ain’t Life Grand?
If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!
This post is a bit out of my niche. Well, it IS about the Internet I suppose!
I just can’t get over how many different ways there are to make money on the internet. Since I’ve started this blog, I’ve seen a number of different ways to put advertisements on your blog. Imagine how it would feel to wake up in the morning knowing that you made money while you were sleeping.
The main thing here though is to keep priorities straight. The money is the bonus to blogging. There has to be a much deeper motivation if you’re going to succeed. The most important part is the quality of the content in the posts. I personally feel that you need to be providing some quality information to the reader. Otherwise you’re cheating your readers, and quite frankly, I doubt if you’ll have any return visitors anyway, if they’re not being enlightened or entertained by what you have to say.
Here’s the way I see it. It takes time to research and write your articles. But then you absolutely love writing and putting your thoughts into words. And hopefully, along the way, you can even help, inform, and entertain your readers.
Hey, you might as well get paid for it too!
Ain’t Life Grand!?

Ok. Quality information. Gotcha. Do what you love and the money will follow. Gotcha… But, there’s a lot of competition in the money making niche.
How do you build traffic?
One of the things we’re thinking about trying is to run a contest. (Yes another contest, but we’re also a money making blog wannabe - so two cliches with one stone) Problem is, we can’t figure out whether they work.
Ironically, we’re running a mini-contest to figure out if contests work. Basically, leave a comment and have a chance to win $5. Will that work, or is it more of the same ol’ same old?
How successful have you been with your ads and affiliate links?

Thanks WebDiggin!
I see you’re on Entrecard. Make sure you’re joining in on the daily stumbles on the promotion section of the forum. That drives a lot of traffic. I got over 3,000 hits yesterday through StumbleUpon.
As for the ads, not so good yet. But there’s still a lot of tweaking to do. It’s only been 6 weeks for me so far.

Now, this is my cup of coffee. I got my share from doing a bit of reviews for ReviewMe. TLA and LinkWorth has also been good to me. What else? Yeah, a dollar here, a dollar there. Then a few cents here and there, lol! What can I say? As a wannabe, life is sure grand making money on the Internet.
And I still remember, somebody told me that it all began with that first step.
Greetings and lots of love from Malaysia.

Nice post Curt. I am still in the process of trying to build up my readership,a then I plan on looking for ways to make money without flooding my site with ads, which is not attractive for visitors.
