4. Affiliate Marketing
Affiliate marketing is one of my favorite ways to make money online. It’s quick and easy to get started with, and it can be an effective source of income even when you don’t have a very big audience.

As an affiliate, you promote someone else’s product or service – and if your algeria phone number library buys as a result, you get a cut of what they spend. Typically, your affiliate commission could be anywhere from 5% (e.g. for products on Amazon) to 50% (most common for digital products).

It’s easy to include the product or service links in your video description or in your blog post notes that go with your video – but again, to comply with FTC rules, you should disclose that these are affiliate links. (The same applies if you’re using affiliate links on social media.)

Ready to Get Your Video Blog Up and Running?
Starting a vlog is a bit more involved than starting a blog, because you’ll need good recording equipment and editing software to create quality content. You’ll need to budget for upfront costs on these.

However, vlogging could be well worth it for you. It’s a great fit if you prefer speaking to writing – and it lets you build an instant connection with your audience.

It’s simple to get your video blog started. Just follow the steps above, and you’ll soon have your vlog up and running.

Not quite sure whether a video blog is right for you? Take a look at my guide to blogging vs YouTube: that should help you make up your mind.


Hi I'm Ryan Robinson
I'm a blogger, but I'm not my blog. I am not my business either. Occasional podcaster and very-much-recovering side project addict. Co-Founder at RightBlogger. Join me here, on ryrob.com to learn how to start a blog and build a purpose-connected business. Be sure to take my free blogging tools for a spin... especially my wildly popular free keyword research tool & AI article writer. They rule. Somehow, I also find time to write for publications like Fast Company, Forbes, Entrepreneur, The Next Web, Business Insider, and more. Let’s chat on Twitter (X?) and YouTube about our feelings (and business, of course).
