Paid blogging
7 March 2007, by Karl Bunyan
Before talking about paid blogging at the Centre for the Study of Financial Innovation, I thought it worthwhile to see just what there is out there already. 
I’m due to appear as part of a panel at the Centre for the Study of Financial Innovation on the topic of “Blogging for profit”.
My place there is based more on technical input than blogging knowledge
but, as an active blogger who already makes a tidy $7 (approximately) a
month from Adsense, I thought a bit of research wouldn’t go amiss to get an idea of the bigger picture. I’ve posted the results of some of my investigations into paid blogging on my personal blog.
So far, the prospects of earning a living as a “small-time” blogger look pretty thin. I can write about a furniture shop in North Carolina and be paid $6, but that’s not exactly going to pay many bills. (It’s also not a subject I feel particularly well qualified to cover, having never been to America let alone one particular North Carolina furniture outlet.) It will be interesting to see how the round table goes tomorrow and what kind of ideas are covered and I’ll be putting a summary on here soon.
