Making Money With a Blog
Blogs continue to show up in business articles, and these days, many of those articles indicate an expectation that blogs have finally become hot real estate for advertisers. In a Dec. 13 story titled ”The Business of Blogging,” BusinessWeek acknowledges that blogs can no longer be viewed solely as the realm of self-involved losers, since so many have proven to be valid sources of information and news.
The story notes ways in which today’s bloggers are making money from their blogs:
- BlogAds
- Joining a blog network like Weblogs, Inc., Gawker or Law.com
- Google AdSense
- Sponsorships
- Pay for posts
Debate continues in the blogosphere about whether some of these practices are ethically sound. So far, every blogger makes his own moral decision and then lives with the results.
