how do bloggers make money andspecifically how can a blogger make over a thousand dollars in a single day in this article I'm gonna show you what I've personally done to earn some awesomemoney from my blogs and you will also learn what I have personally done tohave many days where I've earned over a thousand dollars in a single day againand again and again you will see real proof and stats so don't go anywheremy name is Greg Kononenko you might also know me as the caffeinated blogger andon this website I help bloggers just like yourself get traffic to their blogs and actually turn that traffic into money
let me show you some of the examples of my blogging income and thenlater on in the video we'll go through some examples fromother bloggers so my blogging income total at the moment is between 15,000 to20,000 per month from my overall blogging business I'm gonna break itdown for you but before I do that I just want to make sure that you also knowthat I'm not doing blogging full-time I also have another part of my business asoftware business I'm a half partner in a software company growth commander so Ialso make money from software as well as I spent time on that software so theincomes that you're gonna see here are not actually from sort of a full-timeeffort because at times I have to focus 100% of my time on my software businessnow having said that let's talk about the first sort of blogging sites that Ihave and that is a fitness website and I currently average about two thousanddollars a month from this site let me jump over and I'll show you some of thekind of proof and the numbers so I'm here inside my Adsense account and asyou can see I actually haven't refreshed this page since probably about a coupleof hours ago maybe two two and a half hours ago and you can see that from adsfrom Adsense ads I've made about seventy eight dollarsand forty one cents but if i refresh this I think we've ticked over to a newday in the u.s. time so you can see that's now actually update and I've justhit refresh here and that's updated to eighteen dollars Australian that I madeyesterday from Adsense on my fitness website so basically that's probablyabout fifty sixty dollars u.s. or so if we convert it at the current exchangerate just in case you knew and you're wondering what the hell are theseAdsense ads well these are ads that you see on some of the websites that'sanother one of my blogs travel chrome I'll talk about it a little bit later onin the video but here on a page I'm gonna show you some of the examples ofAdsense ads so whenever you're browsing other websites you might see them aswell throughout the content you'll see an ad that looks approximately like thisthere's one here in the sidebar as well and these ads are pretty much scatteredthroughout the content and Google shows them automatically based on the contentthat you've got on you on your blog so whenever someone lands on my blogs theyscroll through the content and if they click on any of these ads that's whenGoogle pays me per click because Google show ads it's very simple to actuallyset up it's 100 percent passive they just give you a little bit of a line ofcode and you insert it into your website and then they start automaticallyshowing up these ads you don't actually need to do anything so it's superpassive and that's how my fitness website makes this money that you cansee here I don't actually publicly reveal my fitness website URL simplybecause I'm a little bit concerned about potential competition because I've gotsome really cool keywords that I've researched for my blog so publicly Ireveal my travel blog and some of my other blogs but this Fitness website Idon't publicly show the URL of so from Adsense on the fitness side as you'veseen in my adsense account I make anywhere from kind of twenty-two when avery bad day to about fifty dollars or even sometimes more US dollars per dayand also I recommend some products as an affiliate sometimes I currently don'tmake any I feel it sales on the fitness websiteand sometimes I might make one or two sales so kind of my average between youknow zero to approximately seventy dollars and then affiliates sales sowhat average over the last month or so I ever is about two thousand dollars USper month when I combine affiliate earnings with Adsense earnings here arethe stats from my Google Analytics account so that you can see the numberof actual page views that I get on that Fitness blog and you can see we startedthe blog in May two thousand nineteen and the traffic has been growing verysteadily all of last year and then there was a big jump just because there was abit of a dip here in Christmas because people don't care much about fitness oror exercise around Christmas time you know everyone just has a good time andeats but then there's a massive spike just after New Year because a lot ofpeople make new year's resolutions and try to change the diet that's kind ofquite normal in the fitness niche the big thing to note of course here is thatthere's been a lot of growth and the first five or six months of every blogis a slow burn you don't really get a lot of traffic so kind of between Mayand October you know we only started getting a slight increase in traffic inOctober but I've seen that time and time again with all of my websites it takesGoogle about three to six months to start trust in your website and you justneed to continue stick with it and keep publishing high quality content andGoogle will eventually start sending you traffic and then after that it just youknow it's the traffic always takes off you just have to be patient now you'llnotice that the period where these stats and the 16th of January 2020 today it'sthe 20th of February 2020 the reason why I limited it on the 16th of January isbecause Google Adsense terms actually don't allow me to disclose exact numberof revenue per thousand visitors and you've seen my Adsense earnings alreadyso you could then technically figure out my earnings per thousand visitors sothat means that I have to stop the stats in January so that you don't know thenumber of visitors and you can't kind of figure out those stats this way I don'tbreak Google Terms & Conditions in case you're wondering what affiliate earningsare I recommend some products related to fitness and exercise on our websiteand I get a special link if somebody clicks onto that link I get paid apercentage Commission I'm gonna show you some of the examples of that later on inthe video the second area where I earn moneyblogging is from my other websites I've got several other websites going to showyou some of them to you now it's travel crock that's hassle Gregg Kononenko andI've got a couple of other smaller websites as well combined I earn abouttwo thousand dollars a month from them you've already seen my trouble crocwebsite it's getting a steady amount of traffic every single day from searchpeople type in various keyword terms such as for example Bora Bora facts andthey find me on Google I'm here at the number three position so they click onto my website they'll land on my website and after the land on my website a lotof them click ads that are on my site and I make money Google Adsensebasically pays me for displaying these ads here is another one of my websitesthat's hassle calm on it I publish various content for example here is aarticle where I review the site ground hosting and I personally use high groundhosting by the way so if I wrote an honest review why I like site groundhosting and anyone who lands on this website if they click any of theseaffiliate links and they end up signing up to site ground as a result of myrecommendation you can see there is this thing here I have code so this isbasically my I feel it link that side ground gave me and if somebody signs upfor site ground service as a result of these I get paid a percentageCommission's that's what I feel it marketing essentially is all about and Iget a lot of these sales between my various blogs here up all of the sideground affiliate sales notifications I'm just refreshing the page so you can seethat this is for real so you can see all of these peanut salesnotifications that I'm getting so here you can see I'm inside sad ground sothese are all of the Commission's that I've made that buy pretty well 100dollars per sale not all of these sales for disclosure come from these blog alsopromote it in other places as well but every once in a while I get us out fromthese blog as well I promote other affiliate products on my websites and Imake money from them in a few other ways as well but basicallycombined and make around $2,000 from trouble crock that's hassle gregKononenko and there's a couple of other smaller blogs so my third and my largestblogging brand is caffeinated blogger in total I make these are the amounts thatyou can see here on the screen directly I make two to three thousand dollars amonth I make also between five to ten thousand dollars selling my own productand I also make between five to ten thousand dollars a month from emailmarketing I'm gonna break it down for you and give you the examples here aswell so let's talk about these direct category of two to three thousanddollars per month so if somebody Google's free traffic sources you cansee my caffeinated blogger website comes up here on page oneso I published content on various topics on the caffeinated blogger website andif somebody then opens up the this page they will see some information and Italked about the Pinterest traffic that I'm getting in this particular tool thatI use called tailwind and if somebody clicks on any of these affiliate linksand signs up for tailwind I end up getting paid a percentage commissions sothat's what I'm talking about where I said that I make some money directlyfrom people just looking at my content and clicking on various affiliate linksso that's for caffeinated blogger.com which is my actual blog now caffeine ata blogger brand also includes the YouTube channel so if I open this upthis is my channel obviously where you guys watching this video and I currentlyhave 72 thousand subscribers on my youtube channel and my plan for thecaffeinated blogger.com website was actually to build it out into a nice big blog which I might end up doing at a later point in time I just got busy withthe YouTube channel and my youtube channel has actually been growing reallyfast and you know I really ended up liking YouTube so I switched topublishing my content actually on YouTube the stuff that I was gonnapublish on caffeinated bloggers calm my youtube overtook it so if we look at theanalytics from the 19th of January to the 18th of February so basically for 30days here are my stats here you can see that I've made1800 just from showing ads on my videos so ads on the videos are a little bitsimilar I guess to the ads that you saw on travel crock comm on websitesit's just ads that are shown in content and all of my videos as well theyinclude ads for example when someone opens up one of my videos you can seeJanuary there is an ad shown here at the start and if a person watches you knowfive seconds or more of these ad then I get paid a small amount and you can seethat I made one thousand eight hundred just from these one hundred and fortyfive thousand views that my videos have had in the last 30 days and if we lookat the top earning videos some of the videos are making me a couple of hundreddollars per month just on autopilot just from those ads also in some of my videosas well as in some of my content on caffeinated blogger.com I recommendvarious products so various WordPress themes and SiteGround hosting andvarious other resources and in total that adds up to about two to threethousand dollars per month in direct revenue from people just watching mycontent and clicking on the links that are already there in the content andbuying there as things through my links now this is quite a small part of what Imake from caffeine and a blogger com the bigger parts of course here are sellingmy own product as well as email marketing so let me explain to you how Ido that and basically a lot of bloggers they do that as well you know showingads generally is a very small proportion of the money that most bloggers aremaking selling your own product and promoting things building your emaillist and promoting things to emily's generally account for a lot more oftheir income I published a variety of content on my YouTube channel and someof it relates to various ways of making money online some of it relates toblogging and in the content that's related to blogging I mentioned thetraining and coaching package that I've got just like what you can see hereresources mentioned and that basically takes people to a sales page where theycan buy my product if they're interested so the training plus coaching packagethat I've got caffeinated niche profits if I choosethat I'm here inside a shopping cart from the 21st of January to February the20th you can see basically here are the stats are made nine and a half thousanddollars in sales I've had a few refunds but basically I've made eight thousandeight hundred just from selling that that product in the last 30 days sothat's how I make these five to ten thousand dollars a month from selling myown product this is actually very common if you look on any interior designbloggers website there generally is generally sell their interior designcourse or they might sell their designs if you look on fitness type blogs thenyou might see that the bloggers are selling their workout plans and workoutvideos so selling your own products your own audience is actually very veryprofitable and that's what most bloggers end up doing once they've got anaudience and once they're a bit more experienced and I've developeddeveloping their own product and that's what I recommend of course to mystudents as well now the last part here that I want totalk about is email marketing that's also a big component of what I makeevery single month I average between five to ten thousand dollars everysingle month well you'll notice that on my caffeinated blogger websiteI'm inviting people to learn how to get visitors to the website so I've got alittle sort of presentation that people can sign up and watch if they want toand that of course captures the email address of the interested person oncethey are on my email list I am able to then communicate I generally send myYouTube videos and from time to time I also send promotions as an affiliate sobasically I recommend other people's products to my email list and ifsomebody buys by my link then I get paid a commission so I'm now logged into oneof the affiliate management platforms and I promoted this product that'sactually a really cool product and my audience was very interested in it it'ssome done-for-you websites I recommended them and I was gettingpaid 40 percent commission for a two thousand dollar product so myCommission's basically were 790 880 that's just after adjusting for somefees and rounding etc and you can see that when I promoted it in January youcan see the 790 emissions there's a couple of rejectedtransactions there but basically on January the 12th there are made 798dollar commission then another one 798 dollar commission here and then therewere also a couple of days
if you can see this let me just make this a littlebit bigger because you probably can't see it behind my face on the camerathere so January 9th we've got here there were two sales so basically thisis you know an example of a day where I made over a thousand dollars in a singleday just because I sent an email to my email list I did the same thing inOctober I promoted in October as well and you can see here October 10th I've Imade just in that one there made three sales so that's over two thousanddollars in a single day from sending an email promoting this product so this isexactly why I personally tried to build my email list everywhere I canI've got opt-in forms on my blog as well as on my youtube channel and I inviteothers to join my email list and you should be doing the same once you've gotyour own blog and you've got the audience you definitely should bebuilding your own email list because it can be very profitable imagine if I wasnot doing any email marketing I would be making five to ten thousand dollars lessevery single month so let's see if we've answered the question how the bloggersmake money basically bloggers make money from these following things let's justrecap so ads in the content as well as the affiliate links in the content ingeneral in my opinion I recommend for someone who's just starting out the blogto really focus on getting the content out there and getting the traffic andonce you've got the content up there and you start getting traffic from Googlesearch you can add Adsense ads into your content as well as recommend somerelated products so ad affiliate links into the content and that will at leaststart getting some revenue in for you now this is just the very first step ofmonetization once you've got a bit of an audience and you've got you'veestablished your authority you can go on to create your own product and you cando that in pretty much your own you know in the kotani's you can create your ownguitar course in the fitness Nishikori and create your own diet lists or yourown maybe recipe book then you can start selling your own product on your websiteas well as to your email list and of course it's very important to eventuallystart building your email list actually as early as you can because having yourown email list can be extremely profitable as you've seen with myexamples and if you look all over the internet bloggers always say that havingyour own email list is the most profitable thing that you can do becausethat's an audience that you can once you've got twenty thousand people onyour email list you know you can send an email and you can make thousands ofdollars in a single day you can always Google for blog incomereports and that will bring up a bunch of results for example if you look atthis you will see that there are links to other people posting theirinformation and you will generally see that people make money in a very similarkind of split if you look at all of these and you open it up and read indetail exactly how those bloggers make money you will generally see that it'sapproximately the same things showing ads and having affiliate links sellingyour own product as well as having your email list and then promoting things viayour affiliate link to that email list if you're ready to start your blog andyou want to learn how to actually set everything up I've got some step-by-step tutorial for you.
