Make Online Money With Your Blog

I think I heard a character on the CBS show, “NCIS,” say that blogging was for losers. We’ll just let that one go, forgive CBS and this character, as she was a little on the vengeful side anyhow. Furthermore, having read and researched quite a few blogs (into the thousands now), I find that not only are many of these bloggers good writers, they also have loyal readers.

What's more, some bloggers make quite a nice income with their blog. A few have even received book deals, with the traditional publishers, based on their blogs. Wendy McClure’s book, I’m Not the New Me: A Memoir is an example of this extraordinary accomplishment. Her book covers the same territory as the blog: her struggles with weight and body image.

Nonetheless, not all bloggers will receive a lucrative book deal, and most of them are not waiting or looking for one. Most blogs are personal journals about life, faith and yes, politics. How to gain exposure and even earn a nice little income with one’s blog is most likely the number one question asked by many, if not, all bloggers.

So let’s explore a little further and enter the blogosphere.
