A friend of mine, who writes a blog as well, is currently earning over $10,000 per month from her content. In fact many bloggers are making money like crazy. To achieve this goal it is very important that you learn how to use advertising and promoting opportunities as efectively as possible.
What you want to do is focus on building the number of people who read your blog AND who return on a regular basis. Search engines use this kind of information to make assumptions about the content that you are providing. If people come back to your blog regularly then the assumption is that you are providing useful and interesting information. They also look at information like how long people stay on your site.
The more people who return and stay on your blog for a while, the higher rating your site gets from search engines. Those with higher ratings will get shared more in search results. That is a very basic explanation of what happens, but it is important to know that the behaviour of your visitors is taken into account in this way. It allows you to chose your advertising more carefully.
When you start advertising you can use it to help you build an audience who behaves in the way that search engines want to see. This is why having a DAILY ad budget is much better than spending all funds at once.
One of the reasons I really like the advertising from Timebucks is because you can set up daily campaigns that run for weeks or months.
I currently have $7 in my advertising budget on Timebucks and have set my ad to use $0.50 per day:
This gives me 2 weeks of traffic.
I have chosen to use the tasks feature for my ad as well so I can specify the actions that I want the audience to take:
Using this option I can increase the rating that my blog gets allocated by search engines.
I have now added this campaign to Timebucks and I will monitor the traffic that I get to check that it is providing what I want it to.
