My Simple Strategy to earn from blogging
After going thru all these information about the bloggers and their earnings, one thing came to my mind. That is, Anybody can create a blog and make it successful if we follow certain factors.
Those factors are the requirements which fulfill the visitors need and satisfy them.
Keeping that in mind, I followed a simple strategy to earn from blogging.
I promised myself, my posts should be valuable and helpful to the visitors of my blog.
I followed these below steps to build my first blog to earn money
1. Decide what to blog
A huge number of peoples are searching internet day by day to find the answers for their queries. The first step is to find what your blog should be about.
A blogger should find what the peoples are searching about?
Or check what are you familiar with, or passionate about.
But if your passion doesn’t have a huge audience, then your blog will make only less money.
2. Search for the competitor
After deciding the category (food, travel, tech review, parenting etc.,) of the blog, the next step is to search for the competitors.
Always there are competitors for every topic, I suggest to avoid the category which has fewer competitors
Search in google for your category and find the competitors in the google result page.
3. Analyze the website
Choose and select some of the best competitor blogs to surf. Take your time to surf their blog and gather the information on their strategy as much as you can.
Factors like Headline of the posts, post length, the way of conveying their information, the structure of the website, how often they are posting content etc.,
You don’t need to copy them, but gain the idea and knowledge from their blog to create your own one.
4. Create a unique blog
After gaining the knowledge, build your blog with your unique thoughts. Present the content with values and solve the queries of the visitors honestly.
The blog posts in your blog should solve the need of the visitor and make them visit again.
Other technical factors like keyword research, article writing, SEO are essential to pull visitors to the new blog.
Every new blogger should develop their knowledge on SEO
You may be wondering what is SEO, to know about, visit my other post.
so, For example, If you are interested in playing football, you can create a new blog about football.
Or else, even you can create a blog on a popular football celebrity.
Now after deciding what to blog, then search the google for the term of the celebrity or other football related keywords.
Select some worthy competitor blogs and analyze their website.
Finally, you create your own blog on football. Take reference from other blogs.
Don’t copy them, but just for knowledge.
So, this is the simple strategy I followed while creating my first blog.
