There’s an art to making money online with a website or blog. It’s not just a matter of creating a site, slapping on a few google ads or affiliate links and rubbing your hands with a shrewd smile as the money comes rolling in on auto pilot.
I’ve said this before, a lot of your success will come from the passion for what you are doing. Anyone with passion plus a little skill and motivation to produce quality content for a website can generate an audience, keep people coming back to a site and ultimately monetize that website traffic.
To make money online with a website a site owner needs to work over a long period of time attracting attention. That attention then gets sold to advertisers for a fee or the attention may be used to profit from your own product or service sales.
Another “part of the art” to a successful money making website or blog is content. The key foundation of a great site is good quality content but some people slip up in deciding exactly what good content actually is.
Good content consists of well written, informative articles and useful advice.
A website needs to enhance a visitors life giving them a pleasant view of your site and having them leave wanting to come back tomorrow or the next day.
Your website visitors do not want to be presented with nothing but advertisements, affiliate promotions and paid reviews.
I feel that as long as you have a little website traffic you are only going to make a little money. But start applying better thought out strategies and planning to the art of your blogging or website content and soon you could be making some real money online.
