How to Start a Profitable Blog (Make Money Blogging Guide)
Do you want to start a profitable blog?
If not, you might not want to read my articles, as most of them aim for profitable blogging success.
However, if you do want to create a profitable blog, this free guide will show you how.
Starting a blog is one thing. Making a blog profitable is a whole new beast. It’s not as difficult to make a blog profitable as it may seem as long as you make the right choices in getting there. That’s where the hard part can come into play.
That’s why I’ve made this guide.
I want to show you the easy way to start a profitable blog so you do not have to struggle to earn money from your content.
Start a Profitable Blog with the Right Niche
It’s important to choose the right niche if you want to start a profitable blog.
Many new bloggers make the mistake of choosing a niche based on what’s trending and popular at the time. I can’t tell you how many “Web 3” and “NFT” blogs I saw get started. But the majority of them have since been deleted.
They were deleted because the bloggers who started them knew nothing about web3 or NFTs.
If you choose a niche you know nothing about just because it’s a trending topic, you’ll essentially doom yourself. That’s because you’ll be going up against competition that does know a lot about the niche and is extremely passionate about it.
The competition will always be several steps ahead of you.
But if you know a lot about the niche, you have a fighting chance.
Choose a niche about a topic you know a lot about. Choose a niche about a topic that you’re passionate about. Choose a niche about a topic that you can see yourself writing about for years to come.
I love hiking, and seven years ago, I started a hiking blog. It’s still going strong and is monetized.
Choose a passion as your niche. Research the internet to make sure there is a market for it. Then, decide what you want to do to start a profitable blog in that niche.
Sometimes, though, the niche is too broad. This means that it’s too generic or way too competitive. You definitely want some competition because that means there is a market and audience for the niche, but too much competition might be a constant struggle for you.
So, what do you do?
You niche down. You narrow your niche down to a sub-niche that is less competitive than the general broader niche.
I did this with my hiking blog. Instead of covering just hiking topics like the rest of the thousands of hiking blogs, I focused on my local area specifically. It’s now the top blog in my local hiking niche. It was easier to compete in a sub-niche than it would have been in the general hiking industry.
When narrowing down, just make sure there are some active blogs already in the niche so that you’re still entering a market with an established audience.
Research Your Blog Competition
Take some time to research your competition.
Look for other blogs in your niche. Dissect everything about the blogs that you can. Try to understand what makes those blogs successful and what makes them unsuccessful in other aspects.
Perform a SWOT analysis on your competitor blogs. Measure their strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats. Then, apply a SWOT analysis to your blog strategy based on those results.
If you want to start a profitable blog, you need a blog strategy. Setting and working toward goals will bring you success.
Take the time to study everything about the competition. Study several blogs in the niche, not just the top ones. Try to understand the competition as a whole.
Subscribe to the blogs and read every new post. Subscribe to their newsletter and read each issue. Follow them on social media and pay attention to their posts.
You could also look at all the websites linking to their content. Then, look at the content that is linked and determine what makes it linkable. This will help you later with your SEO needs.
Many bloggers dread the competition, but in reality, competitors can help you succeed if you master the art of spying on them. Don’t worry, they’re watching you, too.
You Can’t Start a Profitable Blog without a Target Audience
Who are you writing for?
That question needs an answer before you start a profitable blog.
You MUST find your target audience before you launch your blog; otherwise, who are you blogging to?
This can be done during the process of determining your niche. Just be careful when choosing a target audience. It’s easy to choose a general audience. However, the problem is with differentiation. You’ll be a needle in the haystack of other bloggers trying to compete for the same audience.
If you fine-tune your target audience, you’ll be able to create content that will attract them to you much quicker.
You need to create an avatar.
I don’t mean a profile picture, either. I mean a description of your perfect reader or customer. You should envision them in your head. What do they want? How do they like to consume content? What are they willing to spend their money on?
Create an avatar. This will give you a target audience. Then, you can assess their needs and wants and create content based on that information.
It can be scary to specifically target a certain type of person or audience. The general and broader niche audience seems bigger and more likely to notice you. However, that’s not typically the case because of the amount of people and blog competition.
It’ll be a constant struggle to compete with all the other needles in the haystack.
You want to be seen as an expert in your niche. You want to be an authority that people flock to. It would take years (and may never happen) in a general and broad niche. However, if you further define your target audience and niche focus, you’ll be able to get there a lot sooner.
Just like with a niche, you need to narrow down your target audience to ensure that you can start a profitable blog the right way and the easiest way.
Steps in Starting a Blog
Starting a blog isn’t always as simple as it sounds.
To truly maximize your ability to earn money with your blog, you need to start a blog that you have full control over.
Starting a blog on Blogger or Medium isn’t ideal. You don’t own your content, and you’re limited to the monetization options that free hosting service allows. If they ever shut down, so do you, and there’s nothing you can do about it.
Rented space may be what leads to the demise of your blog.
Own instead.
A shared web hosting plan costs about $5 a month using DreamHost. You can save money by paying for a year’s worth of hosting at around $3 a month. Your domain name is free for the first year and then around $20 a year after that. I’ve been using DreamHost for around 15 years. I highly recommend it. They even have plans for managing WordPress, which might be something you’d rather get.
I want to be honest with you, though. A shared hosting plan will only be good for so long. As your blog gets bigger and more popular, you’ll need more hosting resources. So, in time, you’ll have to spend more money to keep your blog up.
However, by then, you should at least be making enough money blogging for that to be easy. I know I do, and I pay about $200 a month nowadays.
After you establish your web hosting plan, you’ll need a domain name. This is the WhateverYourSiteIs.com that you see in the address bar.
There are tons of different domain name extensions. You can get a .com, .blog, .site, and loads of other extensions for your domain name. Some of them are cheaper than others. Some of them have more availability than others.
However, none of them are as easy to remember as the .com. We’ve used .com for so long that it’s really easy to remember. Easy-to-remember domain names are important for branding. I highly recommend getting a .com domain name.
Due to the number of websites online, .com domain names are limited in availability these days. Your domain name may already be taken, and the only way to get it would be to buy it from the owner for likely a lot of money.
In this case, you need to change your domain name to something else.
BloggingTips.com was taken, so I settled with ShawnGossman.com, which is my real first and last name. I’m fine branding myself as an expert in blogging tips. When people see “Shawn Gossman,” I want them to think about blogging. Sometimes, your name is the best domain name you can find.
After you get your domain name and connect it to your hosting service plan, you now need to add WordPress to your hosting plan.
Most hosting services, like DreamHost, make this possible with just a few easy clicks, and no knowledge of technical website operations is needed. A database will have to be established, and the files will be added to the web server. The installation will communicate with the files and establish a presence on the database.
The installation sounds confusing, but most of the time, it will be a one-click operation for you, and everything will be done behind the scenes.
I recommend WordPress because it’s the most popular blogging software out there. It powers more than 43% of websites on the internet. It’s secure. It gets updated regularly. It’s open-source. It’s also completely free. You get full control of it and own your content.
Once you get your hosting, domain name, and WordPress installation established, you’ll be ready to start a profitable blog.
Improve Your Content Creation Skills
You must publish the best content possible when you want to make money blogging.
Consider this:
According to internet sources, there are 600+ million blogs online. That’s a lot of blogs. That’s a lot of content. That’s what you’re competing with. No, not all 600+ million, but you get the idea here.
If your content sucks, your blog will not be successful.
If you rely on AI to create your content or you are very generic about it, you’ll fail.
Your content needs to be human-created, personal, and of the highest quality possible. Your mission should be to create a better blog post than the last one you created. Each thing you make should be of the highest quality possible.
How do you do this?
I have a strategy that has helped me for years. It’s simple but it requires you to research a little bit. But it pays off to get a check in the mail every month for the revenue I earn with my blog.
My strategy is simple.
Determine a topic you want to write an article about. Search for that topic on Google. Open the first 5 blog post results that are NOT sponsored posts. Read or scan each article, looking at the titles, sections, and any additional value they’ve added, including videos, media, and images. Create an article covering every point they cover but in your own words. Then fill in the gaps of information that they missed or did not include in their article. This will make your article more valuable and longer.
Long-form content is the best. Your post should be at least 1,500 words in length. I typically publish articles that are around 3,000 to 15,000 words. I’ve seen a lot more success and profit earnings in longer articles than the shorter ones.
The ideas of what to write about are simple, too.
Look at your target audience’s most requested needs and wants and create articles based on them. If you make the solution easy, you’ll get a better response.
Your content needs to be packed with value.
After reading your blog posts, people should be able to leave with something from it. That’s what value means in blogging. You need to be able to give something special to someone each time they read your blog posts.
The more quality and value you add to your content, the better off your blog will be.
SEO Your Blog
SEO stands for Search Engine Optimization.
SEO is when you optimize your web content for search engines. It’s doing things to get further up towards the first pages of search engine results.
Most searchers will not look for websites past page one of search engine results.
Your goal should be to get your blog posts on page one.
To get on page one, you have to target a keyword that will be used in the search query. You must figure out the keyword through research. Keyword research is the fundamental first step of SEO success.
There are many great services available to help you research keywords. You can use platforms like SEM Rush, Ahrefs, Uber Suggest, and Keywords Everywhere. You can use Google Search tools such as Search Console, Keyword Planner, GA4, and search features like auto-complete search and People Also Ask.
You get keyword ideas by researching the needs and wants of your audience. You need to do that first to establish an idea to write about. Then, you’ll research keywords directly related to that topic based on what people may be searching for.
Your research will give you the keyword you want to use.
There are three main areas of keyword research to look for. Keyword competition percentages should be lower because a highly competitive keyword will be a struggle to compete with. Search volume percentages should be higher because that will mean that the masses are searching for the keyword. Finally, search intent is a research point because you want to make sure you deliver the content that people are actually searching for.
Once you get your target keyword established, you then need to add it to your blog article.
There is a great WordPress plugin called Yoast. It will audit each post and page you create to help you choose the best practice for placing your keyword and taking SEO-related actions. It’s super easy to use and understand. I suggest upgrading to the premium version for more controls, but the free version is great, nonetheless.
For a simple keyword placement formula, I do the following:
I make the URL slug the keyword I’m targeting. I make the blog title and the H1 header include the keyword. There should only be one H1 header. I make a few H2 headers that include the keyword, too, but not every header. I mention the keyword in the first sentence of the first paragraph. I’ll include the keyword in the ALT tag of the first image. Then, I’ll mention the keyword a few more times in the content where it makes sense to add it.
Don’t feel like you need to add the keyword a lot. If you add it too many times, it’s called keyword stuffing, and you can get penalized and even banned from Google for doing it.
I say Google a lot. In general, you should use Google first because every other search engine is set up in the same way, but Google is the top, most used search engine.
There are a few more SEO actions you should take on your blog, too.
You want to make sure all internal links on your blog use a “pretty” URL structure. You can do this in the permalinks section of your WordPress Dashboard Settings.
You want to make sure you use SSL. This adds a security certificate to your website and encrypts information from use by readers. Most web hosting services have free options for this. DreamHost does, and it’s a one-click, easy process.
Make sure your WordPress and website are fast. The faster the blog, the more SEO-friendly it will be.
You also need to ensure your WordPress is optimized for mobile devices. If it’s not, you might lose a lot of SEO ranking and readers. The majority of your readers will be on mobile devices. It’s best to design for mobile first.
SEO is pretty simple once you get the hang of it.
Start a Profitable Blog with Social Media
Social media is a great way to help you start a profitable blog.
That’s because social media is likely one of the largest sources of where your target audience can be found. If you choose not to use social media for marketing your blog, you’ll likely miss out on a significant amount of followers and profit.
However, there is a right way of using social media and a wrong way of doing it.
The wrong way is just promoting your blog posts and doing nothing else.
See, social media algorithms are set up to keep people on the platform. The platform has ads and ways to earn profit, and if people leave to go to another website, it risks losing profit. It’s nothing mean on the part of social media; it’s what every website owner should be doing—keeping people on their website so they can further their chances of earning more money.
So, how does social media become so relevant to a blogger if the platform is doing everything it can to keep people on the platform?
Let’s break this down even further.
Social media algorithms are designed to give more viewing capabilities to social media content that keeps people actively engaging on the platform. The algorithms will give less viewing capabilities to posts with external links, such as links to your blog posts. This doesn’t stop everyone from seeing the link, but it does stop a lot of people from seeing it because it puts internal content and organic posts first.
So this means that you should use social media to build a brand around you and your blog rather than as a way to promote your blog.
That probably makes no sense. So, let’s explore what it actually means a little more.
Enter social media with a different mindset. Don’t start using it with the intention of just advertising your blog posts. Instead, start with the goal of becoming known as an authority within your niche.
I use a 90/10 marketing strategy on social media. 90% of my content on the platform is native, which means I upload it directly to the platform. The other 10% is promotional, which typically links to my latest blog posts.
I make sure my bio link goes to a page that shows my latest posts and how to get more from me. That’s important because that is often how people will find your blog.
When posting native content, try to focus on highly engageable content. The more discussion you can keep going on your posts, the more the algorithms will give you more viewing capabilities. You should also get away from your social media profile and actively engage with other creators and pages.
You should do this at scale, too.
I post at least five times a day, 365 days a year, on each social media platform I use. I use their built-in scheduling features or a great scheduling service called Buffer.
I schedule my content so that I can focus more effort on engagement, which is often more important than posting your content.
The more you’re seen on social media, the more people will know you. The more value you post and the more helpful you are on social media, the more people will follow you and want to know more about you.
Use social media to your advantage because it will definitely help you start a profitable blog.
Buy Ads to Make Money Blogging
Consider creating a budget for buying ads to help you earn more.
Buying ads is basically buying traffic to your blog.
You can buy ads on Google and other search engines. You can buy ads on social media. You can even buy ad space directly from other websites, blogs, and newsletters. You should be open to buying ads from all these sources as long as you can confirm that your audience exists on the sources.
Now, as a general rule, you shouldn’t buy ads unless the ad will essentially give you more profit than you spent as a return on investment (ROI). However, at first, your ROI might just be more traffic to your blog.
You should, however, have a better goal than just more traffic to your blog.
Each post you make should include a CTA. A CTA is a call to action. This is something that you want your readers to act on in regard to reading your content. Your CTA might be to leave a comment, join your newsletter, register on your discussion forum, or buy a product from you. Your CTA should be your main goal. That goal is what you’ll measure in terms of buying advertising for your blog posts.
I prefer social media ads. You can fine-tune the ad to ensure it is shown directly to your specific audience.
Some will tell you to use the default ad settings. You should fine-tune them instead. You risk losing money by targeting everyone. You need to narrow it down as you would with narrowing down your niche or target audience. It gives you better results that way.
Just remember, when buying ads, your goal should eventually be to earn more profit from the ad than the amount you actually spent on it. This should be done, especially once your blog starts to earn revenue.
Collaborate with Other Blogger and Influencers
A great way to start a profitable blog is to establish a networking relationship with other bloggers in your niche and influencers on social media.
Yes, you saw that right. You should establish a networking relationship with your competitors.
Blogging is different from other businesses. You can work with your competitors, be friends with them, network with them, share traffic, and benefit each other financially because of that relationship.
Bloggers are known to help other bloggers. When multiple blogs write about a niche, this keeps the audience active and the niche alive, making profit a reality for the blogs trying to achieve it.
When starting, try to establish relationships with other bloggers that are around your size and level. Don’t seek out the top blogger just yet. Go for your fellow smaller bloggers and establish yourself in the niche beforehand.
Collaborate on each other’s blogs with guest posts. Collaborate on social media with one another. Do a podcast with each other. Whatever collaborative efforts you can come up with, try to do them regularly with your fellow bloggers.
There is a traffic benefit. You share traffic. You gain a chance to be seen by new people in your audience. Those new people might become loyal followers who always refer others to check out your content.
Try to collaborate every chance you get to help increase your profitability changes.
Start a Newsletter
Right after you launch your blog, you should launch your newsletter.
Yes – that soon.
Why? Because a newsletter is a direct line between you and your readers. There is no search engine optimization needed or social media algorithms getting in between you. You own your contact list. You can contact subscribers directly without anything in the way.
Start a newsletter now and focus on growing it alongside your blog. I use MailChimp and ConvertKit which both offer generous free plans.
Make sure people know about your newsletter, too. Add it to every page on your blog. I know popups can be annoying, but my newsletter popup gets me most of my new subscribers every single day. Also, add your newsletter link on social media.
The more ways you allow readers and your audience to see you have a newsletter, the easier it will be to get more subscribers.
After you get subscribers, you’ll need to make sure you deliver content that will keep them subscribed. That’s going to be your main job.
Sometimes, to attract subscribers, you need to offer them a powerful yet free resource after they subscribe. We call this a Lead Magnet.
Your lead magnet can be anything, but it needs to be of the most valuable highest quality possible.
My hiking newsletter offers new subscribers a guide to 35 local off-the-beaten-path hiking trails. Hikers often seek out these trails. People will flock to my newsletter to get that guide, and then I promise them even more each issue they read.
Work on building your email list because these subscribers will be one of your best sources when you start a profitable blog. You can easily convert subscribers into paying customers.
Start a Profitable Blog with a Sales Funnel
You need to create a sales funnel when you start a profitable blog.
This is the process by which you will attract readers to your blog and essentially lead them to the post-buying process, where you will earn a profit.
Your funnel should start by showing how you will reach your audience (marketing). Then, it will show how you will inform your audience (blogging). Then, it will show how you will keep your audience connected with you (newsletter). Finally, it will show how you will make a sale (product or service). You should connect the dots and indicate how each of these steps will connect.
Here would be a great example of a sales funnel:
I target my audience on social media by helping them with their needs, gaining followers, and developing a relationship via direct messenger. I ask them to check out my blog. Then, I give them more information on the blog catering to their direct needs and wants. I then have mechanisms for them to join my newsletter on each blog page. I offer a valuable lead magnet to entice them to subscribe to the newsletter. I use the mailing list to give more value and also offer my products and services directly to my audience without search engine and social media algorithms getting in the way.
The only way you can start a profitable blog is by having a sales strategy.
A sales funnel is the best way to start developing your sales strategy.
Create a Consistent Content Calendar
They say that content is king.
Engagement is queen.
However, consistency is the kingdom that holds everything together.
Consistency is extremely important if you want to start a profitable blog. You need to master consistency and turn it into a habit.
Consistency doesn’t mean how often you post, either. I post once a week. You might want to post twice a week or once a day. I chose once a week because it’s doable and not overwhelming. I post in very long form anyway, so it takes me a while to write and edit my articles.
The consistency of it all is that I post once a week, every week, on Wednesday at 10:00 AM CST.
I’m consistent because I make my schedule every week. That allows my audience to know exactly when to expect new content from me. That enables me to market my content to them because they will know when to come back for more. You might be one of them.
If you post at random times and days, no one can get used to your posting schedule and you won’t be able to develop loyal readers who are standing by to see your new content.
Be consistent if you want to win at blogging.
You should also create a content calendar. This will show what content you have planned to be posted next on your blog. This helps you not ever have to worry about writer’s block and not knowing what to post about next.
Your content calendar is your idea generator. Every time you have an idea, you need to add it to your calendar.
A critical trick I suggest to most new bloggers is to take advantage of the WordPress scheduling feature. Before you launch your blog, try to create around ten awesome and well-edited articles for your audience. Schedule them ahead of time on your blog. This will allow you to stay ahead while you continue to create more content. That way, if you need a break one day, you can do it without losing any consistency in the process.
A content calendar will help you remain consistent so you can focus more effort on profit.
Master Your Blog Analytics
Something that a lot of blogs about blogging leave out is your analytics.
You need to master your analytics if you want to start a profitable blog.
Your analytics will tell a story about your blog and each piece of content you create on it. They’ll give you the results you need to ensure the best practices are made for what type of content you create and how you should distribute it.
You can find out practically everything you need to find out about with blogging by utilizing your analytics.
I suggest using Google Analytics 4, or GA4 for short. This is by far the most advanced analytics available. A good plugin is Monster Insights for WordPress, which helps you integrate your GA4 analytics into your blog for a better viewing experience.
Don’t be intimidated by analytics.
Metrics and percentages seem hard to interpret. However, if you focus on learning what each metric means one at a time and then learning how they relate and connect, it gets way easier. Don’t try to understand it all at once as a whole. Try to learn each component until you get an understanding of it all.
Analytics can help you make big decisions that will impact your profit. The more metrics you have access to, the better off you will be.
How to Make Money Blogging
The following methods are some of the best ways to start a profitable blog and make money with it.
Courses and Webinars
Courses and webinars are great forms of blog profit generators.
This is when you teach your audience a trade or skill related to your niche. Make sure the learning format is easy to use and follow. After taking your course, give them value and a reason to come back for more.
Most bloggers charge anywhere from $100 to upwards of $1,500 per course.
eBooks and Guides
eBooks and Ultimate Guides are a great way to earn with your blog.
Create extensive eBooks or ultimate guides about hot topics in your niche. You can basically put in what you’ve already made articles about but with some extra tips and tricks, too. Create the eBook or guide to have an appealing visual appearance for better results.
Most eBooks and guides are sold for around $10 to $50 for each resource.
Affiliate Marketing
Affiliate marketing is a very common and easy way to start earning with a blog.
The idea is that you sign up for an affiliate program or network. You add links to affiliate products on your blog post. The links are set up to track sales made from your blog. For each sale that occurs from the affiliate link, you’ll earn a commission.
Some bloggers earn a living alone just from their affiliate marketing efforts.
Advertising and Sponsored Content
Advertising and sponsored content is a great way to start a profitable blog.
You can sell advertising directly to earn more money or use something like Google AdSense to still earn some money but let Google do most of the work. You can also sell advertising on your blog pages and even offer the ability for others to post their blog post that they pay for sponsorship.
Selling ads directly will earn you more profit, but using Google AdSense can still earn you a reasonable amount each month.
Public Speaking Gigs
The one great thing about blogging is the reputation and expertise that you develop.
This unlocks new profitable opportunities such as public speaking gigs. You might have to do a few free local ones to earn a good reputation. However, eventually, you should charge for them. You can do in-person or virtual speaking events.
Try to choose a fair price for your time but also factor in travel costs, fuel, eating, and anything else that you will have to spend money on while also keeping profit in mind.
Consulting and Coaching
Consulting and coaching are great opportunities to start a profitable blog with easy products.
If you’re good at your niche, you can offer advice or coaching to others who want to become good at it. For example, I offer coaching to bloggers who want to improve their blogs and make money with them. I give them personal one-on-one time and answer their specific questions.
This is a very reasonable way to profit from a blog, and you should consider charging by the hour to maximize your profitability.
Product and Services
If you have created products and services for your blog or niche, you can sell them from your blog.
On my hiking blog, I offer digital itinerary planning, which is my digital service. I also offer local guided hiking and mountain biking services, which are my physical product. You might want to offer both or one or the other.
With products and services, you get all the profit. This is ideally one of the best ways to not only start a profitable blog but to make blogging your full-time career.
Newsletter for Profit
There are many great newsletters out there with hundred and thousands of subscribers who pay for the newsletter.
There are many ways to profit from your newsletter. You can sell advertising and sponsorship. You can use affiliate marketing. However, you can also charge for getting the newsletter. You’ll have to make sure you create a newsletter that is worthy and awesome enough to put a price tag on it, though.
Start by offering a low, fair price for your newsletter and gradually increase the price as it grows.
Online Community for Profit
Consider starting a private online community attached to your blog to earn a profit.
I’m the Community Manager for Copyblogger Academy. It’s the official online community for Copyblogger, which has been around for a long time. It’s a paid community, and I can attest that the paid community strategy works very well. Copyblogger has well over 1,000 paying members, but like with a paid newsletter, you have to be able to make it worth paying for.
Most online communities will charge an annual fee to earn more money from subscribers.
Monetize Your Social Media
You can also utilize your social media to start earning a profit with your blog.
If you build a strong community on Facebook, for example, they will pay you money for engagement bonuses. I have a very engaging hiking page, and Facebook pays me over a few hundred dollars a month because I keep people engaged on their network. You can also sell posts and shoutouts on your social media, too.
Over the past few years, social media has really invested a lot of effort into paying the people who keep the platforms active, and you should take advantage of that.
Offer Freelance Writing Services
If you already love to write about topics on your blog, you might as well write for other blogs and get paid for it at the same time.
I’ve been doing freelance writing for a few years now. I write about topics that I am passionate about exclusively so that I know I can provide awesome articles. I write the articles as if I am writing them for my own blog. I want to make sure that people in my niche know me as someone who creates the best content, whether for my own blog or someone else’s blog.
Don’t undersell yourself with freelance writing. I charge anywhere from $150.00 to $250.00 per article. I don’t budge when they try to make me go cheaper, either. I know my worth.
Final Thoughts About How to Start a Profitable Blog
