Want to be a blogger who can make money? These 6 assumptions should not hold you back
If you hobby writing and enjoy sharing it with people, a blog could be the right medium for you to be creative. Moreover, nowadays writing can also be used as an additional source of income. So, if you want to be a blogger who can make money, apart from having to consistently publish your writing, you also shouldn't let the following assumptions hold you back:
1. To be a blogger, you must have hundreds of thousands of readers

Making money from a blog doesn't necessarily require hundreds of thousands of followers. What you need is an audience who is interested in the content you share so that they come back to your blog. If you actively upload content and they are happy with what you create, it will be easier to generate traffic on your blog.
2. You can only make money if there is a sponsoring company

You don't have to wait for companies to find your blog to create sponsored content. You can join an influencer network or blogger community, or just start by discussing brands that are relevant to the theme of your blog. So from there maybe there will be brands who are interested in linking their links from your blog.
3. As a Blogger, You Should Be Able to Make a Lot of Money From the Beginning

You don't have to generate that much income, especially when you're starting out blogging. Even though there are certain blogs that easily get visitors, there are also quite a few bloggers who need years to be able to make a certain amount of money. At least, you can measure your income to pay for domain hosting, premium themes, or stock photos.
4. Having a Blog must have its own product

Of course, not all blogs are used for selling. There are other ways you can make money from blogs. You can give a review of the products you use. It will be useful for audiences who want to make a purchase consideration.
5. Blog Must Be Full of Banner Ads

One system for making money for bloggers is Pay Per Click (PPC) on links connected to your blog. But that doesn't mean that the right, left, top, bottom, and pop ups all contain advertising banners. Apart from making the appearance less attractive, it can disturb the reader's comfort while reading your blog. You can integrate the link that must be clicked into the discussion of the post. So it feels natural and makes people more interested in visiting.
6. Blog content must be full of sponsored content
You really want to share information on a blog. But readers are smart too. They bring knowledge when reading your blog and don't want to keep reading content that is only intended to encourage them to make a purchase. You can create natural content in a 3:1 ratio, being: provide information, provide information, provide information, advertise. Readers also know that you are not just "taking advantage" of their presence.
These are some of the incorrect assumptions for bloggers. Are you increasingly wanting to become a blogger? Share your opinions, OK?
