How Much Do Bloggers Earn in 2021?

 

    This blog is actually packed full of data... 

  What we did is we did a pretty large scale survey  and we said how many page views does your site gets and then how much money are you earning ???

 Earnings at 10 blog posts 100 blog posts and 500 blog posts so you can know what kind of return to expect the data here is pretty cool.

 First, let's talk about a site with 10 blog posts 

                                                                           Frankly, this is just too small to expect much to happen with 10 blog posts you know in the underperform category you're gonna get like one page view a month right like you couldn't even convince your husband or wife to come to your blog right this is bad you know if we're kind of at our expected range with 10 blog posts, we're gonna say you're gonna get about 300 page views maybe one of the articles is getting a little bit of something plus we just get some bot traffic coming across and then if we're over-performing with 10 blog posts I might expect something like a 1500 page views a month now we've done that we've actually done that multiple times we did it with a soundproof expert we did it with work prep where we had you know 10 12 blog posts and we got over a thousand page views a month but honestly, that's rare most people will see basically no result at this level because you're just too small enough to have any kind of authority with google and you have very few lines in the water trying to win rankings.

   So don't expect anything, Earnings well if you underperformed you're going to earn nothing if you got 300 page views you're probably earning nothing maybe a couple pennies from Adsense and if you over-performed with 500 page views maybe we make 5 bucks a month we have earned as much as 300 a month from 10 blog posts but again that's a very rare anomaly in this category, you just shouldn't expect much at 10 blog posts you haven't put in enough effort but 

 Now let's jump to a hundred blog posts 

                                                                 This is realistic for all of you to accomplish in one year even if you don't outsource any of the writing but it's going to take very consistently very hard effort for you to get there to write 100 good pieces of content.

 With 100 blog posts here's our over perform expected and underperform in terms of page views now you'll notice the 100 000 page views as our stretch goal right we say for our articles that every one article our stretch goal is already always to get a thousand-page views per month per article now some are going to way over-perform that and some are going to underperform it this is our normalized average with a hundred blog posts we've definitely built sites where we got more than a thousand page views per article but usually, it's more of a stretch goal it's kind of hard to quite get up to that you have more misses than you hope for  we're expecting about fifty thousand page views from a hundred articles that's what we would just typically expect a blogger to do maybe not somebody brand new but somebody with a little bit of experience who kind of knows what they're doing that's not weird in most industries and then our underperform category frankly, a lot of people are going to end up here with your very first blog because it's hard to do you have a lot of skills to learn other people are able to kind of just pick it up quickly, I would say if you're taking the project 24 you're in our course and you're learning a lot of lessons I'm hoping you're going to push at least more toward the middle category because you're making fewer mistakes but there are a lot of things that can keep you back and then here are is our range of earnings for each one of those page view categories 

 What's the revenue to page views 

        sites over ten thousand page views per month was twenty-nine dollars and eight cents that is really interesting that we found that in the real data because the number that we've been seeing for years is that with about 30 000 page views you should be able to make a thousand bucks a month sometimes takes a little bit of work to be able to do that in some niches other niches you may blow it out of the water but that's right normal where we expect to see it...

  

 the traffic to be with 500 blog posts 

                                                           Now the one thing I would say are you may expect a little lower page views per post when you're at 500 blog posts in a particular category when you have 50 you're just testing the waters and you have a lot of misses then you write your next batch of the content you're able to hone in on what worked

  Usually, we see the highest page views per article on a site that's you know between 75 and 150 articles when we get bigger we start scraping the bottom of the barrel a little bit with our search analysis but at the same time we're able to rank for bigger topics and so it's usually going to roughly balance itself out up at this 500 blog postmark so let's take a look at that traffic now now we're talking about the large audience that this site is bringing in and then look at that income huge huge variability at this point right I mean if you're at the bottom right bottom range of the underperforming category oh it's backward for you guys is that over here it hurts my head any way you could be earning anywhere from 2 000 a month to 25 000 a month from 500 blog posts and we've seen examples of both actually, we've seen outliers even further than that out but those are that's a normal range kind of given these different things.

The surveyed average of what you would expect in the expected category then is seven thousand two hundred seventy dollars per month if you're just totally middle of the road with traffic with uh with earnings and everything I think that's really poor there's no way you should write 500 blog posts and only be earning 7 210 per month unless you have just hardly worked on monetization at all the vast majority of people in this category who have written that much content and have that big of an audience will eventually start putting a lot more effort toward monetization they're gonna make their online course they're gonna have a physical product they're gonna go find the good affiliate programs and they're gonna negotiate their rate rates higher that they're making a hundred dollars a sale uh for their commissions and things like that i really think the higher monetization numbers are going to be a lot more common when we're talking about that much content unless you really have just completely neglected monetization and you've only focused on traffic.

  This is a business you've got to build a business-like any other business and there's no guarantee if you write 100 blog posts you're going to earn anything at all actually but we have done it enough times that we know what is normal and what we're capable of doing someday you come up with the perfect niche that now you can you can continue and finally, do this or are you going to actually jump in you're going to find something that works and you're going to pick it and you're going to wake up early every day and you're going to put in your hour and you're going to create that content that can completely change your life.
