Some of you may be thinking, “how does one make any passive income as a blogger?”
Well it’s pretty simple. By writing about what you love and engaging in a niche you enjoy being in, you can make huge advertising deals and do affiliate marketing. If you’re new to this idea, check out this article. It gives you the basics on how blogging can serve as a passive income stream for you.
Blogging for Income — A Passive Income?
Last week two posts popped up in my RSS feeds with the words ‘passive income‘ in their headings.
BJ asked — So Where’s the Passive Income? and Dave writes about Growing a blog or blogs as a source of passive income.
The idea of passive income is obviously one that many people strive for — and it’s a term that I’ve heard used many times to describe online income streams — including blogging.
Unfortunately I wouldn’t use the term passive income to describe blogging for income.
While there are a few aspects which could be described as passive — the overall experience that I’ve had is anything but passive.
Where is Blogging for Income ‘Passive’?
Archives — Perhaps the main area of where blogging has an element of ‘passivity’ to it in how it can earn an income is when it comes to your archives.
I’ve been blogging now for close to 4 years and in that time would have published over 20,000 posts across my own blogs. While the writing of these posts is anything but passive (more on that later) the great thing about it is that even after those posts drop off the front page of a blog they continue to have earning potential.
