How to make money from your blog: 5 tips By Jeff Wuorio Many of the people who write blogs today simply want to share their opinion on something. But then there are the business-minded folks, who have found a way to use blogs, or Web logs, to bring in a little extra cash too.I recently wrote a column detailing how to get a blog up and running to boost your small business.If you re interested in taking it further �� blogging for bucks, if you will �� here are five strategies that could turn your blog into a moneymaker.1. Sell advertising. This is likely the most common means of leveraging a blog to generate income. If yours happens to become a well-known blog, or one that is well-received in a particular niche, it s always possible to sell ad space on your own. For lesser-known blogs, services such as Google s AdSense or BlogAds enable bloggers to establish ad programs.AdSense s �� which lets you select several ads that are consistent with the content of your blog �� pays you based on how many readers click on the ads for further information. Even better, it s free. BlogAds, on the other hand, hooks bloggers up with would-be advertisers and levies a commission in return for any ad placements that result. The nice thing, too, is that the ads are relatively unobtrusive, says Scott Allen, co-author of The Virtual Handshake: Opening Doors and Closing Deals Online. 2. Help sell others products. Here is another click-through opportunity. Affiliate programs enable your blog to serve as a conduit between readers and online sites offering various goods and services. One popular choice is Amazon.com. If, for instance, you offer book reviews or even just mention a book in passing in your blog, an affiliate program provides a means for your readers to click directly from your blog to Amazon to obtain further information about the book. If they break out the checkbook or charge card, you get paid as well.3. Solicit contributions. Not every blog-related income opportunity involves hawking goods or services. As Blanche DuBois did in A Streetcar Named Desire, consider relying on the kindness of strangers. Ask for contributions. If, for instance, your small-business blog supports a cause or issue in some fashion �� say you repeatedly mention tax reform, health care or some other topic �� you can always ask for reader support.Even if you ve attracted a group of regular followers who simply enjoy reading what you have to say, they may be willing to underwrite their loyalty with a little financial help.Programs such as PayPal make it easy to establish a simple on-site contribution collection button. There are lots of worthy cause blogs that would qualify for donations from grateful members of the blog community, says Las Vegas communications consultant Ned Barnett.4. Market your services in your blog. Many people associate blogs exclusively with a cyberspace-based soapbox �� a place to shout your opinions and little more than that. Granted, blogs are an ideal venue to share your thoughts with others, but don t overlook their capacity to generate new business as well. When appropriate, work in references to what you do and, in turn, what you may be able to offer any would-be client or customer who may be reading your blog. That can spread your opinion and your business moxie at the same time. Instead of short commentaries that begin a dialogue with readers, as many blogs do, I write the equivalent of journal articles that demonstrate my abilities, strategies and perspectives on specific issues, Barnett says. When it resonates, it means money. Since starting this approach, I have generated three new paying clients and brought in about $10,000 on revenue �� directly attributable to specific blogs. 5. Use a blog to deepen your existing customer relations . Nor does any marketing material inserted in blog content have to be limited to bringing in completely new business. By using a blog to regularly communicate with existing clients as well as other readers, you can take advantage of the opportunity to fully inform them about everything your business does. That may expand your readers understanding of the full scope of your products or services. My blog has helped existing clients determine the range of my skills and services, says Ted Demopoulos of Demopoulos Associates, a Durham, N.H. consulting and training concern. One client who had only used me for training in the past was surprised at my range of expertise and is now using me for a consulting project. Another who only used me on technical projects is now considering me for a more business-oriented project. Good Luck:-)

What is WHSmiths business aims/ objectives? -

I need to know for my Business Studies coursework but i can t find it anywhere :S :( x

Like any business, the aim is to make a profit.To produce low priced goods and sell them off to make a profit.That s why places like Primark (as you ve asked in your earlier questions), go to suppliers in the eastern part of the world where labour is cheap and so are the supplies, andwhen back here in England, they can sell them off cheap too but they make a profit.

Its a business so nothing other than profit DUHHHHH its not a charity

How can I raise money for my study abroad? -

I created a Chipin account and don t know where I could promote it... I can t work while I m here, either. How can I raise $ (my family has already contributed as much as they are able to?)

Unfortunately, your Chipin account is not going to give you the resources you need to study abroad. How much time are we talking about? If more than a year, then you still have time. But if we re talking within the next 6 months, it will be almost impossible to raise the kind of money you needCan you write a blog and monetize your blog using Google Adsense? Even this approach is not foolproof and can take a while to build traffic and get resourcesWhy not a blog where you discuss your goal about studying abroad, and how you are tackling this goal. It has worked for some folks who wants to look for getting a job or getting out of debt, so a tongue-in-cheek approach may work well for you

to make suggestions ut would help if we knew where you are and from and your age would also help because there are so many positions available but most depend on age and vary from place to place

Money is one of the most far-reaching features of life. Don t stop asking this form of questions

How much markup does a clothing retailer use? -

If you own or run a clothing shop, your answer would be really valuable. The clothing that I am selling retails at �45 per polo shirt, I am trying to get an idea of the price you would expect to be able to buy it at.If you could please let me know the size of your store and the minimum order you would expect to make if you were to buy that would be very kind.Thanks

Keystone is the retail markup usually about 120% meaning if bought at ten is retailed at twenty-two. by doing so even a fifty percent markdown makes money. Keystone means 100% over wholesale which is different in most all departments or specialty stores especially where wholesale is greater. In towels and tissues it s between 20 - 30% but clothing it s about 120% plus, I was a buyer for Bullock s Wilshire where I bought stuff for 35 and sold them for 105 with a fifty percent mark down I was making some big profits. Even worse is womens shoes where they buy a ten dollar sandal and sell them for eighty

I have owned and operated a small business, non clothing, but I believe, and hopefuly you will get conformation on this, but I belileve that the larger stores work on a 12 to 17% markup. An educated guess would be that they buy a $45 shirt for about $38. Hope this helps, and look for others in this exact business. Take care.

We want to create a hangout for local teens? -

This is a little hard to explain. My friend and I live in an area where there is very little to do if you re under 21 and even less if you re under 18. We want to open a place where teens can just come and hangout. There would be video games, movies, wifi and we were thinking of selling clothes by designer friends and tickets to concerts in the area as well as food and drinks all night of course.We d like to make it a no cover charge on regular nights but we were thinking of having local bands play shows a few times a week and having maybe a $5-10 cover for those nights. So basically my questions is, has anyone ever done anything like this? What type of space would be best? How do we go about getting started? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

that place sounds so cool

sounds cool. have it close to a popular place like a mall. or maybe near the school so after school they hang out study and stuff. bands are tricky. i wouldnt get bands untill it gets popular enough or else your losing money.

PETITIONFIND SOMEONE WILLING TO SPONSOR THIS

I used to go to a place like this when I was a teenager. They had live bands all the time. A lot of the bands were garage style and made up of high schoolers or college age members. There were also snacks and a star bucks like assortment of coffee and espresso drinks. You will need to look up what type of permits are required and how to meet he fire code etc. I would think your best bet would be the cheapest place you can lease for an affordable price. The one I went to was in a down town area.
