How I Finally Started To Make Money From Blogging

If you’re a regular reader of my blog, you know from the post Things I Learned In My First Year Of Blogging that I’m still fairly new at this. When I first started a year ago, I wasn’t even thinking about making money.  It really just started as a hobby to keep from binge watching too many Netflix shows!  However, about a month in I realized how much I loved doing this and saw that other people were actually able to make money from blogging!  I decided that I really wanted to try to make this work.  I installed Google AdSense and affiliate banners from my favorite stores and just waited for the money to start rolling in…and I waited…and I waited!  I probably could have made more had I just gone to Vegas!

luck-839037_1920

 

Aside from a few cool products to review, I made less than $40 in my first ten months of blogging.  Needless to say, it was pretty disappointing.  Now, just to be clear…I don’t do this for the money.  I genuinely love blogging.  However, I made a deal with my hubby that I’d go back to teaching next fall when my youngest starts school.  Now I’m hoping to weasel my way out of that deal and keep blogging!  I was getting a little worried up until two months ago.

[bctt tweet=”I wondered if it would ever happen but here’s how I finally started making money from blogging! “]

It took me forever to start making money with my blog but I finally did it with Linqia!

That’s when I signed up with Linqia and started earning money (FINALLY).  Linqia is a company that connects bloggers (a.k.a. influencers) with brands.  In order to be accepted, you have to have 2,500 social media followers or monthly visitors and post regularly to your blog.  If you’re trying to get more followers on social media, Mom Resource has some awesome tips for increasing your Twitter followers (I’ve gone from 189 followers to almost 7,000 in six months so I’m proof that it works).

linqia

The way Linqia works is that they offer you a campaign and you can choose to accept it or turn it down.  If you turn a campaign down, it does not affect your chances of future offers. I actually turned down the first job they offered, which killed me, but it just wasn’t a good fit for my blog. 

However, the next one they offered was for a company I love.  I had to make a recipe using their products, something I’d do for free anyway, and they paid based on the number of clicks I delivered to the brand’s site (through a link in my post).   They estimate the number of clicks you are expected to get and that’s your goal.  If you don’t make the projected number, you still get paid based on the number of clicks you did get.  If you go above the projected number, they raise the goal for the next campaign, giving you the opportunity to make more money.

One of my first campaigns was for $42.40 (and I was over the moon about making that much) but now I earn $130-160 per campaign.  I’m still pretty small in the grand scheme of things so bigger bloggers can make much more than that.  If you’re interested in joining, I’d love for you to use my Linqia referral link. 

However, I’m not blogging about this to make money from it.  I just genuinely know how difficult it is to make money as a new blogger (for most of us anyway) and this has been a game changer for me.  Since I’ve been writing sponsored posts, I’ve been approached by several other companies as well.  Would they have reached out to me anyway?  Maybe, but I honestly feel that the fact that I’ve done these sponsored posts through Linqia has something to do with it.

If you sign up with Linqia, I’d love to know how you like it.  If you’ve been working with them already, please feel free to share!

      I didn’t get any great offers right away (just one for maxi pads which I turned down). However, once I accepted my first offer, the others started rolling in. I don’t know how long you’ve been signed up but hopefully you’ll start getting some great campaigns soon!

      Thanks Laurie! It’s hard to work and blog simultaneously! I just started a teaching job that will last three months (while the regular teacher is on maternity leave) and I’m worried how I’m going to do both while taking care of my family too. I guess we do what we have to do, right? Good luck and keep at it! 🙂

    Yes, making money from blogging is definitely a mystery. I’ve been at it for about a year now (making money, not blogging – I’ve been doing that for a WHILE) and I’m still in the small potatoes category. I’m on Shareasale and two or three other services that sound pretty much like yours, but I rarely land a campaign. My numbers are low-ish, but not THAT low, so it’s a little surprising. I’ll get the hang of it one of these days. #SITSSharefest

      I’m on Share-A-Sale too but haven’t really made any money with it (though I’ll admit that I kind of stopped trying after awhile). I also belong to three other services that connect brands with bloggers and never got one campaign, even though I applied often. It wasn’t until I joined Linqia that I started getting offers and now I’m on my 10th campaign, with two more starting soon. Last week I finally got a campaign with one of the even bigger services that I recently joined. I’m convinced it’s because I have so many sponsored posts under my belt now (this company asks you to submit your best sponsored post when you apply for campaigns).

      My numbers aren’t super high either but it doesn’t seem to matter with Linqia. I’m honestly not trying to sound like a commercial for them but this has been kind of a breakthough for me so I’m pretty excited about it and wanted to share! Good luck!!!

      My best advice is just to keep at it! There are some days when you’ll feel discouraged and wonder if you’re wasting your time (trust me, I know) but you just have to be confident and keep trying to make your blog better every day! I just popped over to yours and LOVED the post about all the things we learn to do one handed once we become moms! It definitely reminded me of when mine were babies! Good luck with the blog and maybe you can get out of that deal with your husband too!

    Congrats to you! I have been blogging for years, just started taking it seriously about a year ago, you are so far ahead of me! Thanks for the info about Linquia, I hope that it keeps getting better for you and that you can stay home and work on the blog!!!

    Great idea and I just tried to connect with them too however unfortunately they are not currently running campaigns with brands that are open to an international audience…a shame. Hopefully they can change this soon. Cheers, Nicole

      Bummer…that’s too bad! Hopefully that will change but maybe you can find a similar company in your country. Good luck!

    Necessity is the mother of all invention, isn’t it? I love how you were able to excite your creativity in order to enjoy time at home with your littles and your family and then ended up getting rewarded for your hard work.

    Congrats on your accomplishment.
    Blessings,
    Dawn

    I’m glad you found something that works for you. It’s amazing the amount of overnight success stories that I hear. The truth is, blogging is a lot of work and it can often take time for you to meet your goals. I hope you keep going and don’t give up!

    I just came across your blog and already love it! Thank you for sharing this info with all of us. I’m a fairly new blogger and I’m just doing it as a hobby. However, in the near future, I too would like to start earning from my blog. Linqia sounds great!

      I really do love Linqia. They’re a great company to work with! I also checked out your blog and have to admit, I’m jealous of how often you get to eat out…LOL! Our restaurants have to be kid friendly unless Grandma & Grandpa are in town 🙂

    Thanks for sharing this! This is really helpful. I’ve only had my blog since Jan 2016, I’m still growing my twitter follows and thanks to mom resources I went from barely a couple of hundred followers to 1k. And I know if I followed her tips to the letter I would have more followers! But since I’m doing this part time its hard to find the time. But reading your post gives me hope that I too can get enough social media followers to use Linqia!

      I’m so glad I could help! You can definitely do this though I know it’s always hard to find the time. Nobody realizes how time consuming blogging can be until they actually do it…LOL! I’m heading over to check out your page and follow you on Twitter now! xoxo
