Then, do personal blogs make money?
Thousands of bloggers are making money through their blogs either by selling ad space, their own products/services, or through affiliate marketing. They use more than one way to make money. They have their own products but they also make money from affiliate marketing and selling ad space.
Similarly, how much do personal bloggers make? Another survey, this one of 1,500 ProBlogger readers who said they're trying to make money by blogging, found that 9% make between $1,000 and $10,000 a month and 4% make over $10,000 a month. But the vast majority makes less than $3.50 per day.
Also to know, are blogs still profitable in 2020?
The answer is YES, resoundingly yes, there is plenty of room for new bloggers to make money. (Not to mention that just because there are “millions of blogs” doesn't mean there are millions of successful blogs. People who won't invest the time, money and effort it requires are included in that “millions” as well.
How many blog views do you need to make money?
More Traffic = More Revenue
It's not unrealistic to make between $0.01 – $0.25 per page view in many blogging niches through display and affiliate ads. So if you get 1,000 pageviews a month (very very easy), you can make between $10-$25 per month, which will cover the cost of running the blog.
