Money From Free Blogs Part 1 of 3

Money From Free Blogs - Selling Email Newsletters Part 1 of 3
By [http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=Christopher_Kyalo]Christopher Kyalo

So as to make money with my free blogs one of the main products I sell through them are email newsletters or ezines. This is apart from a handful of affiliate programs I also promote using the same sites. This is basically how I earn a living from my blogs.

Actually email newsletters are the easiest thing to sell using blogs. One of the reasons for this is because most of the people who visit them are hungry for information. So all you have to do is prove that you have the expertise and knowledge to supply the information being looked for by giving out some of it for free on your blog. It is then the easiest thing in the world to refer readers to your fee-based email newsletter for the rest of the information.

However everything starts with traffic. To make the whole thing work you will have to generate lots of traffic and that traffic should be as targeted as possible. The problem with most blogs is that in their mad rush for traffic, especially in the formative stages, they do not care too much how targeted the traffic is as long as they can generate as many hits as they possibly can. One of the reasons for this is that many of these blogs carry Google Adsense ads and are anxious to make money from clicks assuming that anybody who lands on their blog and is not interested in the content could still click on one of their Adsense advertisements and generate revenue for them.

To be totally honest I have made this mistake myself and I can tell you that it then becomes very difficult, actually almost impossible to be able to sell any products or services on such a blog later. In fact I have blogs that have very low regular traffic but are highly targeted and which have therefore earned me tens of thousands of dollars at a time. And the reason why this has happened is just because they attracted a highly targeted audience right from the beginning.

You can now get all the information you require from my blog on how to increase targeted traffic and [http://big-online-story.blogspot.com/2008/04/to-get-information-you-are-looking-for.html]Make money with free blogs.
