Making money with a blog can be done in a number of different ways, the first most used is offering ads on your blog. You can do this, for example, by joining Google AdSense. This can be done with a low barrier in terms of visitors and content. It is advisable, however, to have about ten posts live for this. Furthermore, you can also make use of affiliate links by recommending other products and thus earning a small kickback with each purchase.
