How to Get Paid to Blog

1. Make a list of your interests and hobbies. Brainstorm topics that you could blog about.

2. Focus on the reason you would like to start a blog. Some people blog to become semi-famous on the Internet, some blog for fun while others blog to help their careers.

3. Sign up for a blog with a blogging service. There are many to select from; two of the most popular are Blogger and Live Journal.

4. Register for Google AdSense for your blog. They will place appropriate targeted advertisements on your blog and you will earn money every time someone clicks on an advertisement.

5. Consider signing up for a blog through Blog It Live, 451 Press or Soulcast. These sites promise to help bring traffic to your blog, which will help people click on Google AdSense advertisements.

6. Look into paid posting opportunities such as the Pay Per Post website and Pay U 2 Blog. Each of these will pay you for posting an advertisement or opinion about a product on your blog.

7. Think of ways you can start multiple blogs. Many people who are successful with blogging have more than one blog, usually built around the same subject.
