The amount of money being made by blogging is is increasing according to the analysis I made of ProBlogger’s survey figures in yesterday’s post. Did Bloggers Make More Money in 2008?
Why could this be?
- We are getting more knowledgeable about making money online, thanks to bloggers such as Darren Rowse and others, plus various new training programs and schemes.
- The huge increase in numbers of those blogging about how to earn money online makes it hard to remain totally ignorant about it.
- The more commonly ads are seen on blogs the more acceptable they become and yet more bloggers take part.
- An increase in the amount of ad networks and affiliate programs targeting bloggers?
- Bloggers plugging these affiliate programs on their blogs and via other networks to earn money from signing up others.
- An increase in social networking among bloggers, who learn about money making methods from others?
- More advanced blogging software that allows for easier additions of ads through widgets.
- Knowing there is money to be made by blogging has attracted more of those who enter into it for this reason alone. and more businesses are starting blogs to plug their own products.
- Buying online is more accepted overall. With the increase in online stores, auctions sites such as ebay and retail outlets with online buying it has become very normal to purchase online. We are less afraid of giving out our credit card numbers and companies such as Paypal feed this sense of security.
- The more that are interested in making money by blogging the more profitable it becomes for those offering training and peripheral services.
