Want to make more money with your blog? In this article you'll discover four easy ways in which you can boost your income fast. You can turn your blog into a great home business.

A blog is a great way to make money online. There are few startup costs, and the only investments you need to make are time and energy.

Here are four ways to increase your blog's income.

1. Blog More - the More Content Your Blog Has, the More Traffic You'll Get

Each post on your blog is a page, and although it's possible to make an income with a blog which has fewer than ten pages, the more competitive your niche (topic) the more pages you need.

Think of each page of your blog as a gateway. The more pages, the more people will find you, and the more income you will make.

2. Research Keywords for Your Niche - Keywords Help People to Find Your Blog

Your visitors will find your blog by typing search terms (keywords) into a Web search engine's query field. Therefore, you must use the keywords which they will use in your blog's posts. Research keywords using the many online tools to ensure that you are using the words that your visitors use.

It's easy to forget keywords when you're writing, so check that you've used them in each post. However, don't overuse them; write naturally.

3. Track Your Blog's Income - Look for Higher Paying Advertising and Affiliate Programs

When you track your blog's income, you'll know which posts attract the most visitors, and make the most sales. Check your statistics at least once a week, and create a spreadsheet with the date, the number of unique visitors, the amount of sales, and how you made the sales.

You also need to look for new money making opportunities constantly. There are dozens of advertising and affiliate networks you can join. Test a couple of new programs each week, and watch for the release of new programs.

Try and test - that's the way to ensure that your income rises each month.

4. Start Another Blog - New Niches from Old

Your visitors are looking for specific information. Once your blog has several hundred posts, you may find that 50 per cent of your visitors find your blog using one or two keywords.

If these keywords are profitable, consider starting a new blog, focused on that area. This new blog will be more sharply targeted than your original blog, and you should find that it becomes more profitable more quickly.
