How much one earns monthly after 1 year of starting a blog with average traffic?

Thanks Arun for educating us with difference..I think even some sites like hubpages,Bukisa give us space to write blogs and article...and they pay depending on 1000 click which is really very hard to acheive without proper traffic.

Thanks a lot Arun for your reply and I am beginning to comprehend these concepts from your posts.

As to your query about creating new thread in forum, you have to select the right category and then hit the new thread box which is the last of four boxes after Reply Topic,Subscribe,Favourite and then give a suitable title and add your content and click submit! That's it!

Really a real knowledge sharing session was going on in this thread.Thanks for your questions Chinmoy and thanks for your elaborate answers Arun. :)

Thanks Rajani and Nagalaxmi. I am glad that I could help!!


And Rajani platform like Hubpages is really useful if you have a google publisher ID. I have around 150 articles on hubpages under different usernames and I earn in excess of 400$ from hubpages. I also do a fair bit of writing on infobarrel and squidoo but they are mostly written to provide backlinks to my hubpages articles.

Thanks a lot guys for all the reply ..... would help others on boddunan. this thing make our website strong & popular. :cheer:

Thanx Arun for this educating post
Now again I request you to throw some light on how to have a google publisher id.I heard the quickest way to obtain a google adsense registration is through indyarocks.com .But are these two things same?I mean having an a/c on google adsense and having a google publisher id?And pl slightly elaborate on 'viral',though I guess it's a highly popular thread.

Good morning to all my friends!

It has been a very good learning experience going through Arun's posts!

@Chinmoy - Good morning to you too mate. I am glad that my posts could be of little value to you all!!

@Rajesh - The quickest way to get approved for google adsense id are all gone. After a major click fraud in India and China, google wants publisher from these countries to maintain their blogs/sites for 6 months before they apply. Though you can also get approved before that but google is generally wary of approving publishers before. So, even if you apply through indyarocks or your own website, the same conditions would apply. Also it is important to fill your blog with unique original content.
You can find the 6 month clause under site ownership on google official website.I have quoted the link below:

And yes, having an a/c on adsense and adsense publisher ID are one and the same.

And yea, viral means a news which becomes extremely popular in a short span of time!!

I hope that helps!!

Thanx amillion Arun.
Your posts are of great help.I may be asking about some more doubts if u dont mind

He is,indeed, a great help in understanding the nitty gritty of the issues involved!

@ Arun

thanks arun for your educating post and for sharing the link...

I think an average blogger will get only a limited amount per year.

@Arun,
Your replies are really informative.I have one more question.What are the ways to get a regular income from blogs?.

@Rajesh - You are most welcome and feel free to shoot me any question.

@Chinmoy and Neetu - Thanks for the praises, I am blushing!!

@Abid - Depends on the topic of your blog and the monetization used. Also we indians have the advantage of the dollar working in our favor. I am currently earning $400+ from adsense so that is around 18,000 rupees and I also earn from amazon and other affiliates. So, most of the times it averages around to 20k rupess per month. Now what can a student ask for!!

@Nagalakshmi - Well the most common ways of regular income from your blogs are adsense, amazon and ebay. Adsense is the most easiest to earn from but also the lowest paying of the three I mentioned.

If you are good at writing sales copy and product reviews, you should definitely go for amazon or ebay. And if you are extremely good in affiliate marketing you should join affiliate networks like shareasale or pepperjam and promote individual merchants products. They pay high commision.

But my suggestion would be that if you are just starting with your blogs go for adsense and if possible include amazon. With time, you would automatically learn about all the other earning options and implement it!!

Let me know if you still have any doubts!!

Another quality post and hope it answers many questions and clearing up doubts too!

@Arun
very good explanation ,yet another informative post ......hope many doubts are cleared........

Thanks Arun for sharing all these here.Many users will have many doubts and hope all will get cleared here.

Arun ,it was nice reading your post.Pl tell me what are the easiest ways to divert traffic towards your blog?Does submitting sitemaps help?Is it necessary for a beginner to submit sitemaps?

@Rajesh - Thanks for the appreciation.

And Rajesh having a sitemap has more SEO value than reader value. Also most of the time readers come to the specific post they are searching for, from search engines.

But sitemap is very essential whether you are a beginner or not. So when google or other search engine sends its bot to index your site, it can easily navigate through your site and can index many pages.

Google lays a lot of emphasis on sitemap and you can see it on their google adsense guidelines too. They like with easy navigation.

It depends on the kind of traffic that you are getting and number of advertising links that are visited .Google Adsense revenue can be beneficial if traffic is more.
