πŸ“ How a Normal Person Can Earn Money from Blogging – Step-by-Step Guide

 By Someone Who’s Just Like You – A Normal Dreamer with Big Goals

πŸ’­ Introduction

Let’s get real — you don’t need to be a tech genius, a celebrity, or a millionaire to earn money from blogging.
You just need a story, a voice, and a little consistency.

I’m writing this for people like me — and maybe like you — who’ve got big dreams, a phone or laptop, and a burning desire to turn their passion into something real. So, if you’ve ever asked:

“Can a normal person really make money blogging?”

The answer is YES — and I’m going to show you exactly how.
Step by step. No confusion. No hype. Just real talk.


πŸ” Step 1: Pick Your Niche (Your Blog’s Main Topic)

Before anything else, you need to ask yourself:

  • What do I love talking or writing about?

  • What have I experienced in life that people can relate to?

  • What topic excites me enough to stick with it for months?

Popular Niches That Work:

  • Motivation & Self-help

  • Personal Finance for Beginners

  • Travel Diaries

  • Life Stories / Emotional Journey

  • Fashion (especially if you run a brand like Swara!)

  • Health & Fitness

  • Book Summaries & Reviews

πŸ’‘ Tip: Your niche doesn’t have to be “unique” — it just needs to be authentic and consistent.


🌐 Step 2: Start a Blog for FREE (No Investment Needed)

No need to buy a domain or hire a web developer. Here are free platforms where you can start instantly:

  • Medium.com – Simple, clean, and beginner-friendly. You can even earn through their Partner Program.

  • Blogger.com – Owned by Google. Great for connecting with Google AdSense later.

  • WordPress.com – Free plan available. Ideal for long-term blogging.

πŸ‘‰ Just pick one, sign up, and you’re ready to go.


✍️ Step 3: Start Writing Blogs That Give Value

Don’t overthink. Don’t wait for perfection. Start writing like you’re talking to a friend.

Your Blog Should:

  • Tell stories

  • Give practical advice

  • Show your real experiences

Examples:

  • “5 Harsh Truths I Learned After Failing in Life”

  • “How I Started My Blog Without Any Investment”

  • “From Burrabazar to Belief – My Fashion Startup Journey”

πŸ” Be real. Be relatable. That’s how trust is built.


πŸ“£ Step 4: Promote Your Blog (Smartly, For Free)

If no one sees your blog, no one can read it — or help you earn.

Best Free Promotion Tips:

  • Share your blog on your Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp

  • Join Facebook Groups in your niche and drop blog links with context

  • Use hashtags wisely: #bloggerlife, #motivationdaily, #fromstruggletosuccess

  • DM 10 friends and ask them to read & share if they liked it

🧠 It’s not about “begging” — it’s about believing in your work.


πŸ’° Step 5: The 5 Main Ways to Earn Money Through Blogging

1. Google AdSense

  • Once your blog gets traffic, Google shows ads.

  • You earn per click or impression.

  • Works best with Blogger or WordPress.

2. Medium Partner Program

  • If you’re using Medium, join this program.

  • You earn money based on how long people read your stories.

  • US, UK, Canada readers = More earnings.

3. Affiliate Marketing

  • Promote books, tools, or clothes you use.

  • Add a link → If someone buys, you earn.

  • Example: “This journal changed how I plan my day – [Amazon Link]”

4. Sponsored Posts

  • Once you get followers, small brands will pay you to write about them.

  • Example: Write about a local product you love and get paid ₹500–₹2000 or more.

5. Sell Your Own Stuff

  • Ebooks, guides, coaching, or even products from your brand.

  • Use your blog to build trust — then offer value.


πŸ“§ Step 6: Build an Email List for Long-Term Growth

One of the smartest things you can do is ask readers to subscribe.

  • Use tools like MailerLite or ConvertKit (free)

  • Offer something free: “Get my 10-day motivation guide”

  • Later you can send new blogs, offers, or links to products

Emails are personal. And personal = powerful.


🎯 Final Thoughts: Can You Really Earn from Blogging?

YES.
If you have a story, a struggle, or a passion — you already have what it takes.

Remember:

  • Don’t chase money. Chase impact. Money follows.

  • Don’t compare your start to someone else’s middle.

  • Don’t stop after 2 weeks. Give yourself 3–6 months.

You’re not “just a normal person.”
You’re someone with a voice — and blogging is how you make it heard.
