How Can You Make Money Blogging? What does it have to do with social media?

quilt 300x206 Social Media for Teachers 101: Make Money BloggingImagine the internet as a series of blankets with different categories and people with various interests picnicking on blankets according to different interests. Now, imagine a giant patchwork quilt underneath those blankets that links everything together. The quilt is made of multicolored crazy square of assorted kinds of fabric. Each patchwork square represents a blog. Social media is the thread that sews all the blogs together. It’s the superhighway to get different people to your blog. Otherwise you’d just have useless, lone,  fabric scraps littering the interwebs.

Why create a money-making blog? Why make money blogging?

You already have what it takes to win.  As a teacher, you’re a master communicator.  Even if you don’t believe in yourself, you’re a skilled writer compared to 97% of the population.  Writing is easier for you than most people because you probably do it all the time (think about when you whip up an email about a dicey situation in class or document an encounter with a volatile parent).

You get to write about subjects what YOU CHOOSE, instead of just in red pen on the side of students’ essays or some bureaucratic form. Now get paid for writing your OWN comments and opinions. You get to call your own shots, and only write about subjects you feel like. You get the autonomy of picking and choosing because it’s your blog. It’s your personal real estate on the internet.

3. You’re in control.  No other way for making extra money for teachers offers this much flexibility.  You don’t need to worry about arranging child care to work some part-time low-paying job in the mall (lower paying than teaching!!) You’re totally free to work when you decide, like after you put your kids to bed.  And you don’t need to put extra miles and costly gas in your car driving around tutoring when you’d rather be at home, cozy on your couch with your laptop.

It fits your own schedule. You can set a timer, write a quality post in 30 minutes or less while the lasagna’s in the oven, you’re waiting at soccer practice for your son, or while all your kids are doing homework together at the kitchen table (hey, you’re doing your homework, too–and it’s more fun when the kids are involved!) My daughter frequently looks over my shoulder at what I’m writing and makes comments.  She also helps select graphics to insert into posts.

The Formula on How to Create a Money-Making Blog NOW

mr yuck 713258 300x300 Social Media for Teachers 101: Make Money Blogging1. HUGE WARNING: If you are serious about mastering how to make money blogging, DO NOT USE ANY OF THE FREE PLATFORMS, such as Blogger, Tumblr, Weebly, Typepad, or WordPress.com. WordPress.com (different than .org) states that they do not allow people to use their blogging platform to generate income. I know of a woman named Sandi who had her business blog on wordpress.com, and one day they just shut it down. Poof! All her work and effort vanished in the blink of an eye, and she couldn’t get the files back.

2.  What blogging platform is the best to use? There is one proven, powerful and easy-to-use blogging system that is turn-key and enables YOU to start generating income right away (Beware: there are hokey knock-offs). even if you consider yourself a digital dingbat and barely know the difference between a mouse and a live rodent, you can operate it just fine. Here is the system I recommend.

3. Follow the Fast Start Training included with the blogging platform.  Write a post and include an eye-catching image or video–it can be a video you just like and share from YouTube. Then share your posts on Facebook, Twitter, or Pinterest with our team’s unique proprietary link generator (you get it FREE)!

4. Get a Facebook fan page here.  Post and share (kind of like putting students’ work on a bulletin board for open house night. If you hide it on a giant pile on your desk, no one will see it). Promote post for as low as $5 and reach a targeted audience of hundreds or thousands of people hungry for what you have to offer.  You can target by demographics, geographics, language, etc.

Rinse and repeat.

Using these strategies, we have increased our lead flow by 400%, and traffic flow to our blog has exploded exponentially.
