Internationally, online marketing is very recent. You might be familiar with shopping and banking online, but a major part of online economy you are not aware of is, Internet Advertising. Advertises are basically content-related and blogs have rich content to embed such advertisements.
Blogging has a considerable share in this online business. From last 5-6 years, bloggers are turning as professional bloggers to make money from this new online trend.
So, what is the basic difference anyway?
The bloggers work content only. The professional bloggers work content as well as spend some bucks on promoting their blog. To earn money from blog they need potential visitors, which can be achieved from promoting their blogs.
Professional bloggers design their blog related to content and also make it user friendly. For e.g. if you have a technology blog you use a sci-fi design for your blog. Also rather than using sub-domain name for their blog as www.example.blogspot.com they buy a related domain name as www.example.com so as to make their blog easily reachable for surfers.
The basic investment in this business is promoting your blog, and the earning source is also advertising. Also having a quality blog, good design and little bit of reputation matters.
To spend and earn money from advertising websites like Google Adsense, Adwords and Adbrite are preferred.
The websites like Alexa.com and Technorati.com gives you worldwide rankings which calculate your reputations based on web-traffic and readers appreciation.
Basic blogging targets are getting maximum blog readers and high rakings than competitors. But if you can manage these things the other ways of earning are giving paid reviews. For e.g. I have Internet security blog; anti-virus and security companies pays me to write review on their products.
Ways of earning are many, but if you are turning your blog into a business it should be your primary consideration and you have to work hard on it. You’ll find yourself blogging all the day and so it is called as a professional blogging.
Despite of all business considerations if you enjoy your blogging things like getting professional is not hard task. And the funny thing is you’ll find many blogs teaching you ‘Hoe to Blog Professionally’.
