Paid to Blog?

Paid to Blog?

posted in blogging |

Well, tomorrow I celebrate two months of blogging, that’s right, I’m a newbie!  Because I am so new I am not getting paid for any of my posts, but I do look forward to the day when I will be eligible to get paid.  In the mean time, I’ve been working hard learning my way, slowly, around the blog world.  There are so many people out there that have been so helpful and many that I look up to and admire.  I’m not going to name them all today, but I was just visiting sites and one of the bloggers I admire has just posted her online earnings for the month of August and I am quite impressed.  This blogger works very hard on her 4 blogs and makes each one of the unique and interesting.  While she is an experienced blogger, she isn’t beyond helping a newbie like me. Whether you’re new to blogging or have been around a while, I hope you’ll visit Kate’s Electric Venom.   I realize it takes time and hard work to earn what she is earning online, but she does give me a goal to work towards!

    Thank you for the kind words! Remember: we were all newbies once. It’s just about sticking with it and, believe it or not, blogging about anything that strikes your fancy.

    As they say, “Do what you love and the money will follow.” It’s true! It’s true!

    Keep up the good work. :)

    I was surprised when I read you have only been a blogger for two months! It seems like we’ve been talking to each other for longer than that! You’re one of my favorite people to talk to! Robyn makes good money too. I will probably never be in her league, but I have made over $2000 with just PPP alone. I don’t know how much for the others, but at least $300 to $500. It all adds up! I’m impressed with Kate too. I’d better give her a jingle!

    Yes! It’s so impressive! But money don’t come for nothing – we have to gain them!

    WOW Peggy, that’s terrific! I’m looking forward to someday being able to say I’ve earned some money online! I do surveys and have done that for a long time, but I like the idea of earning money from my blog. Thanks your kind words, I really enjoy visiting your blog too! :-D

    Hi Leigh! We can always dream can’t we?! Of course, it sure gives me a high standard to try to reach, but once I started actually getting paid to blog, maybe I’ll have more inspiration! :-D

    wow Lynne, I love your new site. It is so beautiful. Gosh I wish I knew how to do the things you have done. Karen from The Pond who is my dear friend set up my site originally and I am so thankful for all her time. It does take a lot of time and she has 5 other blogs of her own, so when she took the time to do mine, I felt so blessed. Time is such a great gift to give to a person, because in this fast paced world it seems there is not enough of it. [TIME] I came up with a name for a new blog, but don’t know how to do it, so when Karen gets a little more time, she will help me. She has redone her family room and turned it into an office and it is so great! Well, didn’t mean to write so much, but sometimes the gift to gab just comes over me. Great Site !!!
