My first tip for those that would like to create a blog to make money online is to do your market research so you actually find a niche that you can survive in. So many new marketers take on internet marketing as their niche and then wonder why they don’t get the traffic and income they expected.

As with any business, remembering your blog is your business and you are the boss, you will not earn much if you don’t have target traffic with money to spend. You can get all the traffic you want and still not make enough to cover your expenses, so play close attention to who you are getting as visitors.

I have a number of hobbies that I love to spend money on. My friends that share my hobbies spend plenty of money on their hobbies as well. Get the idea??

I am a bit fanatically about fly fishing for trout and that makes a great niche for me. I also have a dream home with a huge backyard, which got my wife and myself into gardening, so backyard gardening has become a passion for both of us. This niche is great and that fact the both of us love it gives up plenty to write about.

We have plenty of other hobbies allowing us to have blogs that make money online and it gives us multiple streams of income so when a few of our more seasonal blogs slow down other ones pick up momentum. So, as my friends say, it’s all good.

So tip #1 when you think about creating your blog to make money online is to do something you love and would most likely do for free anyways. Also stay away from markets that have major competition as you may just find yourself sinking instead of swimming in money.
