建议 Blogging Money!
Not earning enough to quit your day job?
Saving money for your next vacation?
Bills going through the roof and looking for some extra money?
Want to buy that new computer gadget that you have your eyes on?
Well, let me share some solid techniques to make money from your blog. These are not some run-of-the-mill techniques that every other blogger preaches about. Rather these are my personally tested and tried methods for a full time income. And ya.. don’t leave your job yet .
1. Get Sponsors for your Blog
Once your blog starts getting traffic, try and contact private companies that are operating in your niche area and get them to sponsor your blog. Even if its for a small amount, it adds up to your blog earnings. Gradually, when your blog ranks higher on the search engines, there are chances of getting better and high-paying sponsors. Try and provide all the details about your blog like traffic stats, search engine rankings, specialization area, unique visitors and keyword popularity. Also mention how your blog will help them in promoting their brand products. Do not get disheartened if you fail to get sponsors for the first time. Keep trying and make targets for yourself.
2. Review Products & Services
You can write paid reviews about different products, services or even review other websites. People are willing to pay if you give them a favorable review and also provide backlinks to their websites. Make some sort of a rating system or a scorecard which will help you in the reviewing process.
3. Develop Tools or Services for the Community
There is always a demand for useful tools that you can develop for your blog. If you are a programmer, designer or have any creative skills, make full use of them. If the community likes your creations, getting paid for them is an easy next step. Start out by keeping your tools free of cost and charge for customizing them according to individual requirements.
4. Publisher Programs
Sign up as a publisher for different programs like Google Adsense, Adbrite, Widgetbucks, Auctionads, etc. and choose the right one for your blog. This choice can only be made by trial and error method. If some program doesn’t work for your blog, remove it and move on to the next one.
5. Donations
Keeping a tips jar or maybe a Paypal Donations button on your blog will let your blog visitors contribute towards your hard work.
如何利用博客赚钱
译文:如何利用博客赚钱
翻译过程中有些许偏颇,还望指正!翻译如下:
“你是否对自己的薪水不满意?
你是否在为你的下一次旅行攒钱?
你是否想买那个关注已久的数码配件(却苦于囊中羞涩)?
“那么,我就和你们分享一下如何利用博客赚钱的技巧吧。这些不是那些写博客的人鼓吹过的利用博客赚钱的技巧。我这里说的是经过我个人检验和尝试过的赚钱方法,你并不需要离开你的工作岗位便可以轻松赚钱。
“1.为你的博客找到赞助商
“当你的博客开始运作的时候,尝试去联系你周围的一些私人公司,让他们赞助你的博客。尽管拉到的赞助会很少,但是它们增加了你的博客收入。当你的博客在搜索引擎的排名逐渐上升的时候,会有更多的机会得到更好的能支付你更多的赞助商。尽可能提供关于你的博客的资料,比如说流量,搜索引擎排名,关注的领域,独立访问者和流行关键字。同时告诉他们,你的博客能通过什么样的方式帮助他们推销他们的品牌。当第一次被赞助商拒绝的时候不要气馁,继续尝试并为你自己定一个目标。
“2.产品或服务的付费评论
“你可以写一些关于不同产品、服务甚至其他网站的付费评论。如果你写的评论对他们的产品有积极的作用人们会很乐意给你一定的报酬。当然,如果你在付费评论中做了他们网站的链接那就更好了。在你写评论的过程中做一些评分系统或者是积分卡,这些工作可以对你有所帮助。
“3.为访客提供扩展工具或服务
“总是会有一些有用的工具或服务可以被利用来扩展你的博客的。如果你是一个程序员,设计者或者具有一些创造性思维,充分地把你的才能利用起来。如果访客喜欢你的作品,为它们付款是一个很简单的事。刚开始的时候保持你的工具或其他作品是免费的,然后对一些个性化的定制进行收费。
“4.发布广告
“在一些类似于Google Adsense, Adbrite, Widgetbucks, Auctionads等的广告平台注册,然后在你的博客上发布广告。经过反复的试验,你会发现哪些适合你的博客,哪些不适合。把不适合你的博客的广告移除,继续尝试其他的。
“5.捐献
“在你的博客的适当的地方放置一个捐献按钮,这样你的博客的读者可能会为你的辛劳工作捐献一点。”
【翻译后记】
Jai总结的这五点是国外的blogger们比较常见的赚钱方法,这对中国的blogger来说可以作为参考。在我们的博客的成长过程中,我们会找到适合于我们博客赚钱的方法。
在上面五点中,第一点在中国来说比较难实现,目前在中国,能赞助博客的公司很少。在茫茫博海中,我仅仅在几家看到过有赞助商的赞助。第二点倒是个不错的选择,目前提供博客评论的比较有名的有国内的feedsky和国外的SponsoredReviews ,幸运的话平均一个月能收到一条评论邀请。而第三点对于我们这些blogger来说算是一个瓶颈,因为我们大多数人都没有比较特别的技能。但是,也有很多途径可以选择的,我们甚至还可以看到有blogger在自己的博客上打出代写作业的广告,能赚钱什么都可以尝试的。第四点是我们现在普遍已经做了的,在国内的话我们可以选择阿里妈妈或亿告等广告平台,Google Adsense也是个不错的选择。第五点的话我们可以尝试用Paypal或支付宝的捐献插件,反正多一个按钮也不会占用侧边栏很多地方,也许真会有好心的访客捐献呢。
