Enough of your hush-hush writings. Now it’s time to be heard. It’s time to reconfirm your thoughts through the world. And what better way than writing your own blog to get the reconfirmation. The icing on the cake is you will make loads of money in the process. Channelize your ideas and present them in a creative way.Write something to not just express yourself but also grab some eyeballs. Think of a topic of your interest and how it would add value to your target audience. Focus your blog around it and build on the readership.

Join the band wagon

Various sites like blogger.com, blogspot.com, worldpress.com etc. allow you to create a blog for free. But you don’t get your own domain name rather you work with the subscribed sites . For ex

If you want a personalised domain name, you need to host your blog and pay some annual fee for the service (around $13 per year).

Grab some eyeballs

Popularise your blog through social media, friends, and groups with similar interests on Facebook, comment on other people’s blog so that more people visit your blog through it. Basically, the bottom line is, gain as much viewership as you can.

Chitika is an online ad network and data analytics firm which allows you to earn money through posting ads on your blog.
