It takes time and a lot of hard work. You have to create good content consistently. A lot of people do link building, but I don’t anymore. We try to create content people want to read. Other sites will eventually start to link to you, you start to rank in the search engines, people will share your posts on social media, and so slowly your traffic will grow. It takes a long time, but it’s what we do.

You are welcome, Ray!

Ray, it depends what companies/advertiser you work with. Yes there are some that do direct deposit. There are countless number of advertisers and companies you can work with.

Well, it depends on your niche (the topic of your blog). The easiest way is to sign up for Google Adsense. They then give you a code snippet that you will add to your site and Google’s technology will display ads relevant to the content of your site. You earn a different amount for every click on the ads.

You can also promote related products as an affiliate and earn commission that way. So, if your site is about cooking for example, you could join a few companies that make cookwares, as an affiliate, and promote their products on your site.

Hope this helps.

You are very welcome, Crystal. Good luck, and feel free to shoot me an email if you need more help with your blog.
