How to Launch a Profitable WordPress Blog in 2021!?

Blogging has become one of the most popular and profitable ways to earn a living online, or simply to be used for content marketing purposes.

If you are thinking of launching your own personal blog, and make it successful and profitable, then this is the right article for you. One of the best and most popular platforms among users is WordPress, as it is easy to use, and you can find tons of free and premium themes and plugins which will help you built an amazing blog.

The first thing you need to do before starting a brand new blog is decide on your niche. A nice is actually a category or a topic you want to blog about. For example, you can simply blog about recipes and food, fashion etc, and that is your niche. You can also create a multi – niche blog which means that you may blog basically about everything you desire, including beauty, food, reviews, travel and many more.

Both single and multi – niche blogs come with different advantages and disadvantages. For example, a single niche blog is concentrated on one chosen subject which is great in the sense that your audience is targeted, and your visitors will know exactly what to expect when visiting your website. The con when it comes to a single niche blog is that you are limiting yourself to a single subject, which often leads to writer’s blockage.

In my humble opinion, the best option is to choose one, or maybe two niches, but make sure they are similar and related, as it is extremely difficult to get lots of targeted audience when you are writing about food and blogging tips at the same time, as they are two totally different subjects and don’t have anything to do with each other.

Once you decide on a specific niche and in which direction your blog will go, then it’s time to choose a perfect domain name for your blog. A domain name, for those who don’t know, is actually the URL of your blog, and it is better if it’s related to your niche. You may also use your name as a domain name, depending on whether you are trying to promote your business, or promote yourself as a blogger.

After choosing the perfect domain name for your brand new blog, the next step is to look at hosting plans for your website. You may check out HostGator as my personal recommendation when it comes to hosting companies. HostGator is a great hosting platform which unites advanced technology and beauty all in one, and allows you to create a stunning and responsive blog in no time.

First of all, you have to make sure to provide quality and understandable content for your visitors that will keep their attention, and of course bring them back to your blog in order to read more and more useful and interesting articles. If your intentions are to  create a profitable blog, you need to look at it as a business not as a hobby. You need to focus completely on providing high quality and content which your visitors will simply enjoy reading.

One of the best ways to make a decent living as a blogger is affiliate marketing. It works in a simple way: you promote different services or products, and insert affiliate links and the end of their URL’s. When a service or a product which you are promoting is sold, you’ll get a commission. You may also sell products on your blog, instead of being an affiliate, where you’ll get less than 10% commission on sold products. You can easily do drop – shipping, where you will get the manufacturer to ship the product directly to the buyer. You can sell everything from watches, dresses, and handbags to clothes, cosmetics and many more.

Another way to make your blog profitable is posting sponsored reviews or sponsored posts. These reviews or posts are written in favor of a brand or a company, and in exchange you get money or freebies, or in some case both. If you manage to make your blog huge, you won’t need to look for them, as you will probably get offers daily. If you are a brand new blogger, you should join some networks in order to find clients.

Selling your services using your blog as a portfolio is another great way to make money blogging. Some bloggers use their blogs as a portfolio or a platform to jumpstart their writing career as freelancers. In order to get your blog noticed, you should to keyword research regularly and write high – quality articles, as over time you will find more websites linking to your blog if your main focus is quality.

You can also hold different events, such as blog conferences, where you can teach each other’s how to grow traffic and other useful blogger stuff, as well as sell courses on your blog.

social media

Promoting your blog on social media is essential for a successful and profitable blog, as we live in a time where almost everything is done online. You should use social media to promote your blog in the best possible way, engage in different groups and promote your posts in order to gain more audience and of course draw more traffic.
