Today I learned that blogging is still a money-making career for many, despite the rise of short-form videos and video platforms. This insight comes from an article in Forbes. Some people treat blogging as a side hustle, while others pursue it as a full-time job.

There are several ways to make money through blogging:

2. Affiliate marketing: This is one of the easiest ways to make money while blogging. Bloggers earn commissions by promoting products or services.
3. Sponsored content: Brands looking to connect with a blogger's audience pay to place ads or articles on the blog. Prices range from $100 to $10,000, depending on the blogger's reach and influence.
4. Selling digital products: Bloggers can sell e-books, templates, workshops, or online courses to generate income.
5. Memberships: Bloggers can offer premium content through memberships, often in the form of newsletters delivered to subscribers' inboxes.
6. Coaching and consulting: This is one of the highest-priced services bloggers can offer, making it a lucrative income stream.
