    Hi, I would like to know, if any of you make decent money, only with free blogs, like blogspot. Or know any free blogs that generate good money..

    Is it possible? if so, can you send me some urls to see those blogs?

    thanks for the time.

    A lot of people make money from blogs but blogs take time/work to build up quality content.

    That's true. I've been blogging on one of my sites for about 6 months now. It's only now taking off, being recognized by the big wigs in my niche and making some decent money.

    Unless you have an extremely interesting life, a personal blog isn't going to make you much money.

    Then make yourself a celebrity and do the rest:p Seriously speaking, I'd advice you to start a blog about a subject you are pretty passionate about. Forget the money aspect of it at the beginning. Whne you do start to get a regular amount of visitors, then only think of monetizing it.:)

    Yes, that´s what I´m doing, but it´s hard to get regular visitors, I have around 65/day and my blog is about a month old. Hope it gets better soon

    I know few people earning a lot from their blogs. It's the content and SEO done on the blogs that matters. Sorry I'm too lazy to find their blogs now. Anyway I will get back to this thread if I could find them later today.

    Build up a lot of quality content and a steady flow of traffic in the first few months and then think of monetizing it.

    Just starting a blog myself. I would agree, pick a specific interest of your that might appeal to multiple people (Not underwater basket weaving). build it and they won't come - interst them and they may.

    Hi

    Business blogs can certainly make money.

    I have several blogs of my own, here's a couple of links:

    http://copywriter.typepad.com/

    http://www.dollars2blog.com/blog/

    I also (used to) blog for businesses. I no longer do that, because I can make more money blogging for myself.

    However, if you want to get into blogging, blogging for businesses is the way to go.

    Cheers

    Angela
