'Can you make money with blogging?' The biggest question arises in a beginner's mind, who jumps into the online world.

However, I have seen many people losing concentration just a few days after starting the journey. And if you are one among them you must be thinking the same too.

One thing I'd like to ask you. When you started reading during your childhood, did you ever thought, "shall I get a real job after so much study?" I suppose you didn't think, because your parents took all the responsibilities, and you always thought one day you must get a high salaried job.

By the way, you get a job and start working 9 to 5 daily; have some excess pressure even in the weekends too. You then become tired after a couple of years and start searching some alternative to survive and find the source of online business. You jumped in, but put an effort which is less than a part-time job. It's not your fault; tiredness of a full-time job, high pressure from office boss and daily home-office-home journey don't allow you to work more at home.

But in reallity, you have to work hard with deep passion and love to get anything in this world, even to earn money from blog.

How can you make money with blogging then?

First of all, you need to realize "what the online business is" before you jump in blindly.

Online marketing or affiliate marketing is very similar to any other business. It must not offer you a fixed amount of money at the end of every month from day 1. Like any other bussiness, you have to invest there in the initial stage for a better future.

Yes, there are a few differences between affiliate marketing and other business.

• In online business, you have to invest a lesser amount of money in comparison to other business (just invest the charge of your web host and domain fees).
• But, in the initial stage the something you have to invest heavily - your time and your brain.
• The most amazing thing in online business: you don't need your own products for sale, so money investment for product manufature is '0'.
• But remember, your own website is the company/shop, while your contents are your own products (the virtual product).
• In online business, you don't need any face to face campaign or direct meeting with the customer.
• But, once again, your contents will do everything for you, from campaigning to marketing.

So I guess, you can realize the importance of your content now. There are reasons to understand how important your content is. I am explaining this in the next section.

If you really want to make money with blogging, you must have to sacrifice in the initial stage in terms of investing time.

Even if you are already an employee in somewhere else, don't waste a single second. Utilize your time during journey, lunch time and at home. The more you invest time, the more your progress will roll on.

If you have decided to be a fulltime affiliate, the task becomes relatively easier. You can spend more and more time, but unfortunately not more than 16-18 hours in a day (at least 6-8 hours of rest is essential). So, utilize your time wisely.

Sometime it may take a little more time to get rolled on, but once it starts it will keep running.

Important Notes about Content

Already I have said that content plays the most important role in online business. People will reach to your site only when they'll find your articles are helpful. The more people reach to your page, the more will be your profit. So, first think only to satisfy the viewers, rather than make money. This is a kind of investment

The content has other importance too, in terms of SEO (search engine optimization) or rank in Google. That means you have to satisfy Google. Google don't like useless contents, and websites with useless contain get blacklisted in Google

So far, I have reviewed a few websites where nothing was written on the pages, but only a link or an image or a video is visible. Those contents neither help a visitor nor satisfy Google. So, forget about rank in Google with such odd pages/posts.

No rank in Google means no profit.

In Wealthy Affiliate, there are several blogs and training sessions which offer you a very clear idea about content writing.

You can see the following training:

How to Write Content Faster for Your Websites

There are many such training within Wealthy Affiliate.

The Steps You Should Follow

Your hard work will be successful, once your website will rank on the first page of Google. Not every article, but you need to create at least one such post in the initial stage. You never know which one is going to be the jackpot post. It partially depends on luck, but if you follow the rules as described in the training within Wealthy Affiliate, it'll become much easier.

When in a fine morning I found two of my posts ranked in the top of the Google search result, I was a bit astonished. I had many other post, even bigger and better. But later I researched and found those articles were written perfectly following the rules which I learned in Wealthy Affiliate.

So stop thinking negatively, start over with a double effort.

Finally, I'd say, never give up. If you give up, you'll loose another battle.
