Although I am newbie in making money online, offered my advice based on my experience in this field. Maybe you too can try it for yourself:

Making money while blogging

Many bloggers want to find ways to generate an income from their blogs. Following are five tips to monetize your blog and start bringing in some money from your blogging efforts.
1. Advertising
Including advertisements on your blog is the most obvious way to derive an income from your blogging efforts. Ads can come in the form of text links or banner ads, and advertising options are available that you can easily tap into through pay-per-click, pay-per-post and affiliate programs online. Google AdSense, Amazon Associates, eBay Affiliates and Pay-Per-Post are just a few of the most common advertising programs available to bloggers.

2. Merchandise
Another simple way to monetize your blog is by selling merchandise through a service such as CafePress who will work with you to create custom items for you to sell through your blog.
3. Reviews
Bloggers can make money by reviewing products, events, businesses and more through blog posts.
4. Ebooks
A great way to bring in some revenue on your blog is by writing an ebook and offering it for sale through your blog. Ebooks are particularly successful for bloggers who have positioned themselves as experts in their fields and advertise their ebooks as additional or exclusive information just for readers of their blogs.
5. Donations
Many bloggers add a donation button to their blogs asking readers to make a monetary donation to keep the blog alive. Donations are also solicited with clever taglines such as, "If you like this blog, why not buy me a cup of coffee?" The donation link leads the reader to another website such as PayPal where the individual can easily make their donation.

Ways to become rich blogging


You want to become rich? Well mostly everyone does. In my desire to be rich I searched through the internet, read books about becoming rich, subsrcirbe to business magazine, and other related materials.


In the net if found an interesting one:



Ten ways to get rich blogging
Tom Whitwell
1. Write about getting rich blogging. There are dozens of successful blogs about blogging. Sites such as ProBlogger and Make Money Online are full of get-rich-quick schemes and elaborate tips for ad placement and site tweaks.
2 .Get a book deal. Better still, a film deal. Numerous writers have gone from idea to blog to book deal without attracting any readers at all. Recently video blogger Ze Frank secured a Hollywood agent, abandoned his daily web TV show and moved to LA to pursue a film deal.
3. Get a job. If you’re looking for a great job, the first page of Google search results for your name are at least as important as your CV. Your blog won’t earn you any money directly, but it might get you a nice job. Mine certainly did.
4. Find a real niche. There was a time, not that long ago, when a chap could say “I like my Tivo. I’ll start a Tivo blog, and get all the Tivo advertising.” That chap (Matt Haughey) has already got rich, so you can’t. Blog niches are getting smaller every day. Want to start a blog about squid? Don’t bother, there are three already.
5. Get sued. A graph of Perez Hilton’s traffic would show a spike in November 2006. That’s when he was sued by a paparazzi agency for stealing its photos and scrawling “Mess” across them. The agency asked for $7.5 million. He got lots of new readers.
6. Get sacked. In 2002, Heather B. Armstrong was sacked for blogging about the debauched antics of the LA design company where she worked. In 2007, her site, Dooce, is still the only blog in the top 100 aimed specifically at women.
7. Keep your costs down. Even though he’s probably the most famous blogger in the world, with an alleged six-figure income, Perez Hilton’s office is a corner table at the Coffee Bean cafĂ© on Sunset Boulevard. He’s there every day, from opening time to closing time, buying the occasional latte and tapping away at his laptop.
8. Break a big story. Old-fashioned scoops work for all blogs, whether it’s the Drudge Report telling the world about Bill Clinton and Monica Lewinsky or giant squid caught on camera for Squidblog. Breaking stories bring links from other blogs, and with them traffic. A big story can see a small blog leap from 2,000 to 100,000 readers in a day.
9. Get bought out. In October 2005, Jason Calcanis sold his roster of blogs to AOL for about $25 million. His arch rival Nick Denton, a former FT journalist, has a hugely successful stable of blogs that is literally priceless, because Denton says it’s not for sale.
10. Write lots of lists. It’s a common clichĂ© that people don’t like to read many words online. It’s also not true. Lots of people read tens of thousands of words a day online, but it’s all broken up into tiny chunks – e-mails, headlines, odd sentences from news stories. Lists work in the same way.
