I have been blogging since June 2006 and until know I have 3 blogs in different nice. The two is a personal blogs and the other one is actually a directory but using WordPress as its engine. I decided to monetize the last one buy placing a Google Adsense but the earning is too small. Therefore I start to offer a web development service for visitors and this service give me much money.
Last month I tried my opportunity in a blog monetizing by selling links or paid review, and in the beginning of this month I received my first payment from selling text links ads. The amount is small, but convinced me that there are a lot of opportunities in online business. Joined with a review broker, it gave me another online income.
What interested me is that there are a lot of Pageranked domains sold by domain broker for people who want to make money online by selling links ads or paid review. It is just like a shortcut to make money online by blogging only for online income.
There are (of course) differences between blogging for money only and blogging as a passion while online income is the way to keep you survive. Blog can be as a business, but do not forget for the core. If you focus only on how to make money online without keeping your passion on blogging, then you just only have paid review posts on your blog. You got the money but not readers and ownerships.
Blogging is not only for paid review. Blogging is to share. If your blog only just to post paid reviews, just start to think this again. You may go on and start adding “value” in your blog post.
How about you?
agree
I separate between blog for money & the other is for sharing about me
Sometimes its easier to write only for sharing
Keep blogging guys
kedua-duanya mantaops
Blog should be informative so that most people will benefit from it.
Well start blogging and have people look at your blog, the more interesting the more people who view your blog which equals people wanting to advertise on your blog. You get paid for people who visit your blog and click on the advertisment
sip, that’s can make people awareness about internet.
sambil menyelam minum air, sambil sharing ikutan paid review juga,heheheh
Agree with you mas.
The content is still in high priority :)
Setuju mas,

No, I am still a fan of paid review, it help me pay the bill, a lot :D

totally agree mas:d
My fist reason for blogging is money, I get this with paid review and now I have 3 blog for paid review… day after day my traffic is go down because I focus with paid review ….
I agree with “You got the money but not readers and ownerships.” like my experience huh :(
I think, If your domains have high Pageranked,It’s good for selling links ads but another, I like paid review more!
