Most methods of starting a blog rely either on the blog having a good Google Page Rank or ample of visitors, or both. A website with neither is not going to earn a tremendous income, even if you can earn a little income. So the tips are split depending on whether they work best with high visitors, high page rank of both.

High Traffic Hints

Google Adsense – easy to run and even simpler to earn from, the incomes from this can be massive! Signing up should be a must for anyone wanting to earn an income as at the very worst a small income will trickle in, but if you have a lot of traffic to your site, then these little advert blocks scattered around the website might automatically include related adverts, with no effort from you.

Affiliate Advertising – there are 2 ways to do this. First, the straightforward way is to merely carry a few affiliate banners about different products that your readers might be interested in. Nothing clever, merely an advert for a product or a merchant that might be useful to the reader. Put the banner into the main area of your web site so that every page carries and and hope to earn an income. The second version is more direct as you actively post round products, recommending them and then adding a product link from an affiliate scheme. Plenty harder work, but the affiliate link is more obvious and more potential to be followed as there is a direct recommendation.

High Page Rank Ideas

Selling links – a few people do not agree with this, but by selling links through a variety of schemes you can earn a healthy income. A little difficult sometimes to get started, but with lots of paid links systems you will be paid recurring fees, so once the link or banner is included, you will either get a hefty initial payment or good monthly payments.

Schemes With A Bit Of Both

Paid posting – depending on whether you have a high visitors site, a high Page Rank blog or one with both, then there is probably a scheme or two for paid posting that is open to you and this is where most bloggers wanting to earn an income will end up.

Several systems want merely high visitors websites and will even go as far as insisting on rel=”nofollow” being added to every link so there is no risk of the posts been seen as being for increasing Page Rank.

On the other hand, there are systems that totally ignore traffic and look only at your page rank and are there basically only to sell links from blogs to increase Page Rank.

Then, of course, there are the systems in the middle that calculate a score for your blog based on various metrics, including the numbers of links in, the Page Rank and the levels of visitors on your site.

Lay the foundations to your blog and you will be able to earn an income from it.
