how do bloggers make money and specifically how can a blogger make over
a thousand dollars in a single day in this video I'm gonna show you what I've
personally done to earn some awesome money from my blogs and you will also
learn what I have personally done to have many days where I've earned over a
thousand dollars in a single day again and again and again you will see real
proof and stats so don't go anywhere my name is Greg Kononenko you might also
know me as the caffeinated blogger and on this YouTube channel I help bloggers
just like yourself get traffic to their blogs and actually turn that traffic
into money click subscribe just below this video and take that Bell
notification icon as well to make sure that you get notified as soon as I
upload my next video let's get into it first of all let me show you some of the
examples of my blogging income and then later on in the video
we'll go through some examples from other bloggers so my blogging income
total at the moment is between 15,000 to 20,000 per month from my overall
blogging business I'm gonna break it down for you but before I do that I just
want to make sure that you also know that I'm not doing blogging full-time I
also have another part of my business a software business I'm a half partner in
a software company growth commander so I also make money from software as well as
I spent time on that software so the incomes that you're gonna see here are
not actually from sort of a full-time effort because at times I have to focus
100% of my time on my software business now having said that let's talk about
the first sort of blogging sites that I have and that is a fitness website and I
currently average about two thousand dollars a month from this site let me
jump over and I'll show you some of the kind of proof and the numbers so I'm
here inside my Adsense account and as you can see I actually haven't refreshed
this page since probably about a couple of hours ago maybe two two and a half
hours ago and you can see that from ads from Adsense ads
I've made about seventy eight dollars and forty one cents but if i refresh
this I think we've ticked over to a new day in the u.s. time so you can see
that's now actually update and I've just hit refresh here and that's updated to
eighteen dollars Australian that I made yesterday from Adsense on my fitness
website so basically that's probably about fifty sixty dollars u.s. or so if
we convert it at the current exchange rate just in case you knew and you're
wondering what the hell are these Adsense ads well these are ads that you
see on some of the websites that's another one of my blogs travel chrome
I'll talk about it a little bit later on in the video but here on a page I'm
gonna show you some of the examples of Adsense ads so whenever you're browsing
other websites you might see them as well throughout the content you'll see
an ad that looks approximately like this there's one here in the sidebar as well
and these ads are pretty much scattered throughout the content and Google shows
them automatically based on the content that you've got on you on your blog so
whenever someone lands on my blogs they scroll through the content and if they
click on any of these ads that's when Google pays me per click because Google
show ads it's very simple to actually set up it's 100 percent passive they
just give you a little bit of a line of code and you insert it into your website
and then they start automatically showing up these ads you don't actually
need to do anything so it's super passive and that's how my fitness
website makes this money that you can see here I don't actually publicly
reveal my fitness website URL simply because I'm a little bit concerned about
potential competition because I've got some really cool keywords that I've
researched for my blog so publicly I reveal my travel blog and some of my
other blogs but this Fitness website I don't publicly show the URL of so from
Adsense on the fitness side as you've seen in my adsense account I make
anywhere from kind of twenty-two when a very bad day to about fifty dollars or
even sometimes more US dollars per day and also I recommend some products as an
affiliate sometimes I currently don't make any
I feel it sales on the fitness website and sometimes I might make one or two
sales so kind of my average between you know zero to approximately seventy
dollars and then affiliates sales so what average over the last month or so I
ever is about two thousand dollars US per month when I combine affiliate
earnings with Adsense earnings here are the stats from my Google Analytics
account so that you can see the number of actual page views that I get on that
Fitness blog and you can see we started the blog in May two thousand nineteen
and the traffic has been growing very steadily all of last year and then there
was a big jump just because there was a bit of a dip here in Christmas because
people don't care much about fitness or or exercise around Christmas time you
know everyone just has a good time and eats but then there's a massive spike
just after New Year because a lot of people make new year's resolutions and
try to change the diet that's kind of quite normal in the fitness niche the
big thing to note of course here is that there's been a lot of growth and the
first five or six months of every blog is a slow burn you don't really get a
lot of traffic so kind of between May and October you know we only started
getting a slight increase in traffic in October but I've seen that time and time
again with all of my websites it takes Google about three to six months to
start trust in your website and you just need to continue stick with it and keep
publishing high quality content and Google will eventually start sending you
traffic and then after that it just you know it's the traffic always takes off
you just have to be patient now you'll notice that the period where these stats
and the 16th of January 2020 today it's the 20th of February 2020 the reason why
I limited it on the 16th of January is because Google Adsense terms actually
don't allow me to disclose exact number of revenue per thousand visitors and
you've seen my Adsense earnings already so you could then technically figure out
my earnings per thousand visitors so that means that I have to stop the stats
in January so that you don't know the number of visitors and you can't kind of
figure out those stats this way I don't break Google Terms & Conditions in case
you're wondering what affiliate earnings are I recommend some products related
to fitness and exercise on our website and I get a special link if somebody
clicks onto that link I get paid a percentage Commission I'm gonna show you
some of the examples of that later on in the video
the second area where I earn money blogging is from my other websites I've
got several other websites going to show you some of them to you now it's travel
crock that's hassle Gregg Kononenko and I've got a couple of other smaller
websites as well combined I earn about two thousand dollars a month from them
you've already seen my trouble croc website it's getting a steady amount of
traffic every single day from search people type in various keyword terms
such as for example Bora Bora facts and they find me on Google I'm here at the
number three position so they click on to my website they'll land on my website
and after the land on my website a lot of them click ads that are on my site
and I make money Google Adsense basically pays me for displaying these
ads here is another one of my websites that's hassle calm on it I publish
various content for example here is a article where I review the site ground
hosting and I personally use high ground hosting by the way so if I wrote an
honest review why I like site ground hosting and anyone who lands on this
website if they click any of these affiliate links and they end up signing
up to site ground as a result of my recommendation you can see there is this
thing here I have code so this is basically my I feel it link that side
ground gave me and if somebody signs up for site ground service as a result of
these I get paid a percentage Commission's that's what I feel it
marketing essentially is all about and I get a lot of these sales between my
various blogs here up all of the side ground affiliate sales notifications I'm
just refreshing the page so you can see that this is for real
so you can see all of these peanut sales notifications that I'm getting so here
you can see I'm inside sad ground so these are all of the Commission's that
I've made that buy pretty well 100 dollars per sale not all of these sales
for disclosure come from these blog also promote it in other places as well but
every once in a while I get us out from these blog as well I promote other
affiliate products on my websites and I make money from them in a few other ways
as well but basically combined and make around $2,000 from
trouble crock that's hassle greg Kononenko and there's a couple of other
smaller blogs so my third and my largest blogging brand is caffeinated blogger in
total I make these are the amounts that you can see here on the screen directly
I make two to three thousand dollars a month I make also between five to ten
thousand dollars selling my own product and I also make between five to ten
thousand dollars a month from email marketing I'm gonna break it down for
you and give you the examples here as well so let's talk about these direct
category of two to three thousand dollars per month so if somebody
Google's free traffic sources you can see my caffeinated blogger website comes
up here on page one so I published content on various topics
on the caffeinated blogger website and if somebody then opens up the this page
they will see some information and I talked about the Pinterest traffic that
I'm getting in this particular tool that I use called tailwind and if somebody
clicks on any of these affiliate links and signs up for tailwind I end up
getting paid a percentage commissions so that's what I'm talking about where I
said that I make some money directly from people just looking at my content
and clicking on various affiliate links so that's for caffeinated blogger.com
which is my actual blog now caffeine at a blogger brand also includes the
YouTube channel so if I open this up this is my channel obviously where you
guys watching this video and I currently have 72 thousand subscribers on my
youtube channel and my plan for the caffeinated 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 with the YouTube channel and my youtube
channel has actually been growing really fast and you know I really ended up
liking YouTube so I switched to publishing my content actually on
YouTube the stuff that I was gonna publish on caffeinated bloggers calm my
youtube overtook it so if we look at the analytics from the 19th of January to
the 18th of February so basically for 30 days here are my stats here you can see
that I've made 1800 just from showing ads on my videos
so ads on the videos are a little bit similar I guess to the ads that you saw
on travel crock comm on websites it's just ads that are shown in content
and all of my videos as well they include ads for example when someone
opens up one of my videos you can see January there is an ad shown here at the
start and if a person watches you know five seconds or more of these ad then I
get paid a small amount and you can see that I made one thousand eight hundred
just from these one hundred and forty five thousand views that my videos have
had in the last 30 days and if we look at the top earning videos some of the
videos are making me a couple of hundred dollars per month just on autopilot just
from those ads also in some of my videos as well as in some of my content on
caffeinated blogger.com I recommend various products so various WordPress
themes and SiteGround hosting and various other resources and in total
that adds up to about two to three thousand dollars per month in direct
revenue from people just watching my content and clicking on the links that
are already there in the content and buying there as things through my links
now this is quite a small part of what I make from caffeine and a blogger com the
bigger parts of course here are selling my own product as well as email
marketing so let me explain to you how I do that and basically a lot of bloggers
they do that as well you know showing ads generally is a very small proportion
of the money that most bloggers are making selling your own product and
promoting things building your email list and promoting things to emily's
generally account for a lot more of their income I published a variety of
content on my YouTube channel and some of it relates to various ways of making
money online some of it relates to blogging and in the content that's
related to blogging I mentioned the training and coaching package that I've
got just like what you can see here resources mentioned and that basically
takes people to a sales page where they can buy my product if they're interested
so the training plus coaching package that I've got
caffeinated niche profits if I choose that I'm here inside a shopping cart
from the 21st of January to February the 20th you can see basically here are the
stats are made nine and a half thousand dollars in sales I've had a few refunds
but basically I've made eight thousand eight hundred just from selling that
that product in the last 30 days so that's how I make these five to ten
thousand dollars a month from selling my own product this is actually very common
if you look on any interior design bloggers website there generally is
generally sell their interior design course or they might sell their designs
if you look on fitness type blogs then you might see that the bloggers are
selling their workout plans and workout videos so selling your own products your
own audience is actually very very profitable and that's what most bloggers
end up doing once they've got an audience and once they're a bit more
experienced and I've developed developing their own product and that's
what I recommend of course to my students as well
now the last part here that I want to talk about is email marketing that's
also a big component of what I make every single month I average between
five to ten thousand dollars every single month well you'll notice that on
my caffeinated blogger website I'm inviting people to learn how to get
visitors to the website so I've got a little sort of presentation that people
can sign up and watch if they want to and that of course captures the email
address of the interested person once they are on my email list I am able to
then communicate I generally send my YouTube videos and from time to time I
also send promotions as an affiliate so basically I recommend other people's
products to my email list and if somebody buys by my link then I get paid
a commission so I'm now logged into one of the affiliate management platforms
and I promoted this product that's actually a really cool product and my
audience was very interested in it it's some done-for-you websites
I recommended them and I was getting paid 40 percent commission for a two
thousand dollar product so my Commission's basically were 790 880
that's just after adjusting for some fees and rounding etc and you can see
that when I promoted it in January you can see the 790
emissions there's a couple of rejected transactions there but basically on
January the 12th there are made 798 dollar commission then another one 798
dollar commission here and then there were also a couple of days if you can
see this let me just make this a little bit bigger because you probably can't
see it behind my face on the camera there so January 9th we've got here
there were two sales so basically this is you know an example of a day where I
made over a thousand dollars in a single day just because I sent an email to my
email list I did the same thing in October I promoted in October as well
and you can see here October 10th I've I made just in that one there made three
sales so that's over two thousand dollars in a single day from sending an
email promoting this product so this is exactly why I personally tried to build
my email list everywhere I can I've got opt-in forms on my blog as well
as on my youtube channel and I invite others to join my email list and you
should be doing the same once you've got your own blog and you've got the
audience you definitely should be building your own email list because it
can be very profitable imagine if I was not doing any email marketing I would be
making five to ten thousand dollars less every single month so let's see if we've
answered the question how the bloggers make money basically bloggers make money
from these following things let's just recap so ads in the content as well as
the affiliate links in the content in general in my opinion I recommend for
someone who's just starting out the blog to really focus on getting the content
out there and getting the traffic and once you've got the content up there and
you start getting traffic from Google search you can add Adsense ads into your
content as well as recommend some related products so ad affiliate links
into the content and that will at least start getting some revenue in for you
now this is just the very first step of monetization once you've got a bit of an
audience and you've got you've established your authority you can go on
to create your own product and you can do that in pretty much your own you know
in the kotani's you can create your own guitar course in the fitness Nishikori
and create your own diet lists or your own maybe recipe book then you can start
selling your own product on your website as well as to your email list and of
course it's very important to eventually start building your email list actually
as early as you can because having your own email list can be extremely
profitable as you've seen with my examples and if you look all over the
internet bloggers always say that having your own email list is the most
profitable thing that you can do because that's an audience that you can once
you've got twenty thousand people on your email list you know you can send an
email and you can make thousands of dollars in a single day
you can always Google for blog income reports and that will bring up a bunch
of results for example if you look at this you will see that there are links
to other people posting their information and you will generally see
that people make money in a very similar kind of split if you look at all of
these and you open it up and read in detail exactly how those bloggers make
money you will generally see that it's approximately the same things showing
ads and having affiliate links selling your own product as well as having your
email list and then promoting things via your affiliate link to that email list
