A friend of mine asked me how www.davidodigitalsolutions.com helps me to earn or it is just a blog for personal interests. The fact is this blog can be a source of employment though I run it for curiosity reasons. So how does one earn as a blogger or a person who runs a blog?
Many people think bloggers are the people who sing a certain politician online. But, those are just political fanatics. A blogger is person who writes regular articles or runs a blog. The articles can be about any subject of human interest though many bloggers choose a niche to write on. For example, in this blog I mostly write about technology, politics and Christian inspirations.
A blogger can write on a given niche. For example, a person who specializes on baking can run a baking blog. Everything a person does has a potential of being a blog. One only need to write about what he or she does every day. This includes challenges and opportunities one meets. There is much to write about. For instance, as I run my small cyber café I meet different people with diverse perceptions and attitudes. As I interact with them I get a subject to write on which I base on my life experiences, skills and knowledge.
Now, for the 3 years that I have been running this blog the best way to earn from it has been through advertising what I do. As readers visit this blog they not only read the stories I write about, but also view my ads. That is, this blog gives me a platform to market what I do. Through this blog I have registered businesses, companies, KRA PINs, filed KRA returns, applied passports, designed posters, among so many other cyber services. Therefore, if you know you can write about what you do a blog will give you a platform to market your job.
The next way one can earn from a blog is through applying to run paid ads. The best platform to apply for is AdSense run by google (the one that displays the ads on this blog). But, this will require your blog to be more than 6 months old and follow certain policies. Good daily blog visitors are essential in this case and thus the blog must be having fresh content almost every day. Other platforms are like propeller, Adsterra among others. But, these other platforms can interfere with blog visitors as ads keep popping up messily.
Hope you have learnt something!
