Simple solutions to help calm the chaos of motherhood

How I make money blogging

“No one reads blogs anymore.”

Nope, not true.

I know. I have a blog, and lots of people come and visit me here every day. You’re here, aren’t you? 🙂

I blog because I really enjoy it. It’s a great creative outlet for me.

Aaaaaand it’s also a great way for me to make a little bit of money.

Right now, this blog brings in a few thousand dollars every year. That’s money that helps me to support my family.

I love being a stay-at-home mom, and I could not be more grateful for the extra income that helps make it possible for me.

How I make money blogging

I have 3 basic sources of income from my blog. They are:

1. Advertising

I use two different ad networks: Google Ads on The Organized Mom Life and Mediavine for Laura’s Plans. Advertisers pay to place ads on my websites, and my ad networks give me a portion of those proceeds. All together, ad payments make up about half of my blogging income.

2. Product sales

I have 5 different products that I created that are for sale on my blog. (You can see them all by clicking “SHOP” in the menu at the top of this page.) Sales from these products make up about a quarter of the income I make from my blog.

3. Affiliate income

I’m an Amazon affiliate, which means that I can recommend products that I love to my readers. If you decide to buy an item that I recommended, I receive a small commission at no extra cost to you. Those commissions add up to another quarter of the money I make blogging.

I’m also an affiliate for a service that I support called Tailwind. (They help on the Pinterest side of blogging- where most of my readers find me- and are amazing.)

Thank you!

So now you know how I make money blogging. And I just wanted to take a second to say thank you! I love blogging, and I really wouldn’t be able to keep doing it if it wasn’t for you, and all of my other wonderful readers.

Thank you for supporting me- I’m just a regular mom who loves to blog and can’t believe she’s lucky enough to get to do it while staying at home with her kids full time.

I appreciate you!

-Laura
