How to Earn Money from Blogging

Good article, but you're missing a key concept -- earning money by writing *without* blogging. There are many sites where users can contribute content, and share in the advertising revenue. I've been doing this at eHow.com for four months, and I'm already pulling in $300 a month (and my income is still growing at a pretty fast clip).

eHow is a site for "how to" articles, but there are other places like xomba.com or associatedcontent.com where you can post pretty much whatever you want, and collect a share of the ad revenue.

The "cost" of having to share ad revenue is more than cancelled out by the fact that a site like eHow is a well-recognized site that generates a large volume of traffic. Instead of a tiny trickle of visitors at a new blog site, your posts at eHow start out with a steady stream of traffic.

When US News is ready to do an article on these types of sites, give me a call, and I'll be happy to fill you in with more detail.
