An increasingly accepted business trend is that of bloggers using their blogs as home based businesses.

Not only is blogging for cash a commonly accepted business activity; it’s popularity has been growing by leaps and bounds.

Making money from blogging can be accomplished in many ways, however all the methods can be broken down into two categories; direct sales and residual income.

Promoting affiliate programs is perhaps the best know method of earning a comfortable income by blogging. The blogger refers his visitors to an affiliate’s landing page or website, and receives a commission when the visitor purchases the affiliate’s product or service.

Blogging is a very profitable technique ideally suited to promoting niche affiliate products.

A blog on fishing that promotes fishing lures, reels, rods, or an ebook on fish catching techniques, that has a decent following, can generate plenty of cash.

On the other hand, a fishing blog would be a poor choice to promote fire arms. Blog traffic is highly targeted therefore, the blog should be directed towards an affiliate product the visitor would be inclined to be interested in.

Capitalize on your blog’s popularity and promote an affiliate product related to your blog’s area of interest.

Direct sales of a product or service related to your blog is also an obvious way to general a comfortable online income.

Products can range from ebooks, personalized coffee mugs, stained glass, silk screen shirts to services like house tending or dog walking. Any product or service can be successfully sold directly from your blog if you have sufficient traffic.

These will generate cash over an extended period of time and have the potential for creating huge amounts of cash however, in order to succeed with this type of blog, the content must be unique and valuable to the user.

These are just a few ideas that can be used to blog for cash on the Internet, your imagination is the only limit as to what can be achieved.
