If you’re thinking about starting a blog and want to make money from day 1, this post is for you.
There are two ways of making money on a blog:
-Affiliate marketing: You promote other people’s products and services by placing some of their links on your site. When one of these links is clicked on by people reading your blog, the person who created the product receives a commission on it.
-Advertising: When you place ads on your website and someone clicks on them, that’s considered advertising. A company pays you to show off or advertise its products or services through ads on your site—in return, it may share some (orall) of the revenue with you.
