Hello everyone,

I am an Electrical Engineer with limited IT background, but I ventured into the world of MMO (Make Money Online), specifically through blogging. Blogging has become my secondary channel for generating income, and it all started when I created a blog to share knowledge in 2017 on the Blogger platform (also known as Blogspot).

After exploring various online money-making methods, I realized that earning money online is challenging and takes time. It took me more than a year of writing, sharing knowledge, and building a blog, along with nearly a year of participating in Google AdSense, to reach a monthly income of $1000. The journey was long, but the sweet rewards came steadily thereafter, much like harvesting the fruits of a well-nurtured tree.

In nearly six years since starting in 2018, I earned over $40,000 primarily from Google AdSense (over $37,000) and some from external partner companies (over 60 million VND). Additionally, I made around 100 million VND through affiliate marketing based on the blog and its WordPress copy created in late 2018. While these figures may not be significant for MMO experts, a steady passive income requiring minimal time investment is worth considering for those who enjoy sharing their knowledge through writing.

  1. MMO (Make Money Online) – Blogging for Money: Indeed, let me share some insights for those new to MMO, specifically on how you can make money from a blog. There are nine common ways to monetize a website:
  • Affiliate marketing: reviews, banners, discount codes, etc.
  • Displaying ads on the blog
  • Selling digital products (e.g., online courses or ebooks)
  • Selling physical products
  • Email marketing
  • Offering consulting services
  • Referral/agency programs
  • Donation-based income
  • Blog flipping (buying, renovating, and selling websites)

In my initial journey, I chose the simplest method, displaying ads, and later, from September 2021, I also embraced affiliate marketing. However, by February 2022, I paused affiliate marketing. Among the ad methods, I focused on partnering with Google AdSense and banner ads for clients. It’s crucial to note three things when opting for ad revenue:

  • Displaying ads should enhance, not disrupt, the user experience. Balance the quantity and placement of ads to avoid negatively impacting user experience.
  • Carefully customize ads to avoid detracting from the website’s overall design.
  • Strictly adhere to ad network policies to maintain a harmonious relationship between advertisers, publishers, and user interactions.

Based on my experience, content creation is paramount for natural website ranking, and organic searches, particularly from Google, contributed significantly to my website’s traffic.

2. How to Start a Blog Without Jumping High: If you’ve ever used a Blogspot blog, you’re aware of its pros and cons. Here’s a brief overview:

Advantages:

  1. Creating and posting content is easy, with a simple and user-friendly interface.
  2. No initial costs are required for sharing your knowledge on the vast internet.
  3. Being a product of Google, Blogspot enjoys built-in SEO benefits, providing an advantage in search engine rankings.

Disadvantages:

  1. Limited customization due to the .xml format of Blogspot themes, making it challenging to add plugins for additional features.
  2. Fewer ad positions compared to WordPress, impacting potential revenue.
  3. Ads may not display consistently in preset positions, affecting overall revenue.

3. So, How Do You Start? To embark on your blogging journey:

  1. Register a Blogspot on blogger.com.
  2. Choose a suitable theme for your content. Free themes from templatemark.com offer an excellent combination of aesthetics, functionality, and ease of customization.
  3. Register your website on Google Search Console and add your site’s sitemap to ensure proper indexing on Google.
  4. Start publishing content in your niche, showcasing your expertise. Create a Facebook page and group to promote your website. Utilize other popular social platforms for additional exposure.
  5. Consider joining an advertising network, preferably Google AdSense, to quickly gain approval and start earning even with low initial views.
  6. Be patient and consistent with your content. As your website gains traction, think about expanding your niche and reaching a broader audience.
  7. When you have a stable income, consider transitioning to WordPress for enhanced SEO and profitability.
