- Given the regular changes in the blogging industry, we decided to do a new survey and get an update to the numbers in this video. We also found some really cool trends we didn't see before. Here's the updated video with the new results. • How Much Do Blogs Earn...
Ever wonder what other blogs are earning? So did we. Jim breaks down survey results and details what blogs with 10, 100, and 500 blog posts are earning.

This was a real eye opener for me. I've been writing blogs since 2006, but mostly as a hobby. I just decided to focus on making money from it since 2018. But definitely my posting frequency (and amount of articles) is seriously under the required numbers. Of course, I have not been giving this the seriousness needed to actually "see results ". So, a big THANK YOU to you for sharing this data. I really , really appreciate it. Once again, it confirms one of my theories: you have to do what you "claim" to be, and you have to do it consistently. Let me elaborate on this: if you claim you're a cook, COOK for Christ sake!!! Cook daily. Same goes for so called "writers", "singers", "music composers", whatever it is, DO IT. An do it often. End of the story.
I agree 100% 👍
Same boat
I'm getting one thousand visits per month with 10 posts.

That's it... On it! I've had a domain for like 5 years now, but haven't been serious about creating content. My goal is to get that up to 100 GOOD blog posts this month... Even if it takes me 2-3 months, I"m still heading in the right direction. Thanks for the info, Income School peeps!
You can do it!

Hey, how's it going. Don't give up!!
Hi mam I am article writer and wanted to work with you as a writer 😊
It's possible but unless you outsource l guess... Can you produce 100 articles within 3 months?
If so, that means writing an article per day, per month that's 30. Can you do it?

Some REALLY interesting changes happening in lately...
Tuesday is the day where I neglect my full time job for about 20-30 minutes and get my daily dose of blogging inspiration. Awesome vid guys
Worst case scenario, 800 bucks a month for 100 posts is REALLY good to me. That's more than most college educated people make in my country.
800 a mo is just under 2-weeks worth of net-pay form my job,
Can't switch to blogging full time, but that'll sure as hell slice away at my car-loan
Me too! It's some good money, actually. It's 3x the minimum wage here.
Your intros are the best thing that ever happened to UA-cam
I have published 200 posts in 3 months (April to June 2020) and now the traffic is about 20K pageviews / Months
@@weldingtroop2179 Wow, congratulations. Can you show me your website so I can learn
@@weldingtroop2179 congratulations. I have a pet site with 30 post i plan loading it with 50 this month
@@weldingtroop2179 Wow! Took me 2 days to write a 1100 word post so I guess I'm gona be way off that 😁
@@weldingtroop2179 Way to get after it and great niche. I have started getting into welding some small projects and I also just checked out your site and it seems like really helpful information!
If there was an award for video intros. Incomeschool would be the GOAT.
Like they are really good in intros, their intro always engaging, making you don't wanna leave
Just came back to this video a 10th time for motivation. Started a niche site back in April, have 43 posts published at the moment, still no real traffic but hoping that next year will be the breakthrough.
@Voko 1120 it’s coming in, each day I’m checking my impressions going up and I’m getting minimal traffic but my posts aren’t that old so I’m still looking forward to better stuff in 2022. I hope your site is doing well too
@@hoodiegamer9256 Keep it going!
@@LivingTheorem thank you very much. I hope the best for you and everyone else here as well. May 2022 be a great year fellow bloggers.
Write on low competition keywords only
@@funnybaby1119 thanks for the heads up. I’ll try and focus on more of that from now on.
34 Posts till now and Alhamdulillah I am earning over $1000. I have learned so many things from Jim and Ricky over the years.
Ahmed Sahab salaam
Please give me some hints
.... which topic to start...
How do you monetize your blog? Affiliate, ads?
@@josephcamano So far monetized with Amazon affiliate only, I will apply for Ezoic soon.
@@afsarahmed1250 oh that's great. How long each article (in terms of word count)?
That’s awesome afsar! VERY inspiring!
Whenever I feel discouraged about starting a blog, you guys always motivate me :)
Get started today
@@tommugema2818 have you done it yet? Get moving!
They really are
What happened?
motivate you how ? 100 + quality posts is already a full time job.
My client has 7 blog posts, 3 of which are ranking, and last month's total views were 4,150. And it's the cbd industry super competitive. It's all about strategy. Let no one put you down
Made my first $1,000 following your YT channel. Can’t wait to invest it into Project 24 this month (so I can work on monetization). Thank you guys for the content, really works!
This is me tooo! I haven't made money but I'm following this info to get started!
happy for you dear
@Aspire Fitness bro can you tell me how long have you been blogging to reach this level?
@@momvanup you can do it!
I'm really greatful for the content you create. I started my first proper blog on a bit of a whim recently and, once I got to writing content, you showed me what good looked like. I'm still very short on the content side of things, but, thanks to you, still as motivated as I was on day one. Thank you!
I am 9 months in and starting to have some traffic. thanks for the info. Ghost town was a drag but I was prepared.
How did you make promotion for your Blog?
I've watched this so many times. Month 5 of my first site, enjoying project 24, working as hard as I can! This is a great motivating video.
Month 6, watching again. Up to 300 pv
Hey, have you started earning yet??
@@dattebayoooo5207 NOPE! but I haven't given up yet either.
@@dattebayoooo5207 I am updating my channel with income reports if you are interested.
@@momvanup I'm interested to see what you have done with your site, I will watch your videos.
I started 2 months back learning lots of things from your videos. Thankyou so much for your awesome guidance. I regret I don't afford to be part of your project 24 course, but still thankful for all ur contents.
Fascinating survey! Great motivation to stop showering, and go back to writing!! Anyhow, we live in social distancing times and nobody will bother about the smell ;-)
Great analysis! Started in Feb/March 2020. Have published 18 posts so far. I average 5,000 page views per month, doing about $90 per month from Amazon. I could be an anomaly but I plan to double down like hell. At least 2 articles per week from this week till I hit 100 posts, then reflect.
Hi Nicholas I am article writer and wanted to work with you as a writer 😊
How are you doing now?
@@oneman89_ Oh wow! Time really passes! Anyway, I never stuck to that writing schedule due to competing commitments. Currently, I have 28 Articles published, averaging about 10k visits a month, and doing about $400 monthly (40% Ezoic, 60% Amazon)
What do you right about, if you don't mind me asking.
Any new update sir,
This is encouraging and makes me understand why I haven’t made anything with 24 blog posts and 242 monthly page views in my 4th month. I try to write more quality articles packed with more valuable information that other bloggers in my niche don’t touch on.
Thats great, I am in my 4th month and getting 300 organic users with 33 posts. May I know how many unique visitors your blog gets now that 3 months have passed.
@@tutorialbookvideos what are organic views?
Can google detect clicks from similar ip address?
@@repostguru833 Yes analytics can detect same ips. I am talking about 300 unique firstime views.Total pageview would be slightly higher.
@@tutorialbookvideos Thank you.
How about ad clicks, are you limited if the clicks come from similar IP?
For instance if someone liked your blog and constantly visits, does that limit your earning?
@@repostguru833 I don't rely on publisher ads. I will show ads of my own products in the website.
It felt like following a 30-minute course that could actually change my life for the better. Thanks for being so elaborate in sharing the steps that helped you.
Writing fatigue is now the problem for me . . . and UA-cam being so much better for me to put my time towards.
200 posts in 3 years...made almost 80 dollars on ads a year with 5000 pageviews/month.... Wish i found these guys sooner :-)
200 posts and u earn 80 dollars a year ☺
Fix that shiii
Jesus man that's a waste of time for that little money
How are you driving traffic and what ad network are you with?🙆♀️
$80 a month?
You literally Read my mind. I will be always trying to find " Perfection "
This might be my favorite video you guys have ever done.
I have seen many income school case studies on UA-cam. But even after publishing that much amount of content, after one year they were earning 100 dollars to 200 dollars. Content is vital but also the keyword research and niche relevant backlinks.
Absolutely love your videos. This one I really needed to see, thank you. I've been trying to figure out for a while now how many articles I need to make at least $1000 and if I was on the right track. You've inspired me to keep at it.
Not only by the number of articles you will make 1000 $ ☺
Numbers isn't the only determining factor. You have to write good content and consider SEO and be consistent.
Found this, watched the intro, paused - Liked & Subbed, unpaused and finished the video thinking, "This is awesome!"
Thank you!
Won't lie, that last part hits hard right in the gut!
I have 26 old blog posts and then on Dec. 31st, 2020, I rebooted my blog and have written four new posts since then, so 30 total. I just checked the analytics and I have 9.7 thousand page views from Dec. 28 to Jan. 26 (today).
Where money?
"I have 500 posts this year. I haven't also showered all year"
Jim: "The best I can give you is a bar of soap" 🤣🤭
in yt you need 1000 subscribers n 4k hrs viewers time to get monetized..for blog you need 100 post?
@@animated6875 no. It is the minimum you should do to expect the blog to be successful. You may be lucky and get ranked in google with a few articles. But depending on traffic you may make very less. With 100 good posts you can expect a reasonable traffic. But traffic is not guaranteed
@@animated6875 but l've seen a niche site making 100$ selling an ebook.
Traffic around 1700 organic with 40 articles.
I think it just depends on the niche and strategy
@@truepotential206 nice words bro .. so what's your traffic strategy?
Jim's face when the guy says he hasn't showered for three months 🤣
The intro it's pretty accurate my main blog has around 130 posts and it made about 3K last year!
How many years have your site been
@@normanjoshua5973 it's my first year blogging. So about 11-12 months
@@TortoiseCashFlow what's your blog name let me visit you today
Thanks for the video, it's always motivating to see these numbers. Right now I have 126 blog posts and 3k pageviews a month, but my site is only 3 months in so many will still have time to rank. I'm aiming to get 500 blog posts this year. There's no way I do all of this and get no results.
@pousada Nerd is this real? And may I help you with content writing?
@@curtisrussell3031 I would love to work with you but I'm from Brazil so my content is written in Portuguese. Where are you from? Take a look at the content: pousadanerd.com

First time viewer. This truly resonated. Thank you for putting it together and for being candid.
Welcome to st George. Love the transparency for expectations. Super helpful.
Great. A real picture is discussed in a very nice style.
Hey Jim !! Good to see you again. 🙏
I just joined Christmas weekend 2020! Ready to buckle down for the ride!
update?
I'm getting one thousand visits per month with 10 posts.
I launched my 4th blog on the 1st of October and published 100 blog posts before Christmas. I'd really love this blog to be making $1000 a month. I will be adding more posts ongoing but not at the same pace as before Christmas. This is really interesting and motivating information.
Did it work?
I am not much experienced in blogging seo stuff but i have managed to earn around $10 to $15 per website per month from 15 articles.
What do you sell though, each person either has to have a product of some affiliate products..or how do you make that money?
This channel is better than I thought it would be. Subscribed.
I'm writing 4 articles a day. Expecting to reach 600 by May 31st (I'm at 198 rn). Will update this later this year. For those who ask, I have a lot of time since I don't have a job.
How many words ?

Apart from the valuable information, you're really fun. Love your video 😍. Subscribed after watching first video.
Absolutely brilliant. I'm glad I discovered your channel. Thank You
Thank you so much for the information and the real data. Much respect to everyone at Income School.
Alot of Bloggers are boosting their income faster with affiliate programs, selling courses, ebooks, t-shirts and doing private company sponsorships and ads or selling a product.
This channel really deserves a subscription and a thumb up.
Great insights! My Digital Marketing blog is 5 months old. So far I have published 43 blog posts. 🤗

Loved this! Can you do a video on the average time it takes to get to 100-500 blog posts?

100 post a year is already like full time job. You need to write one post every three days and you are not just writing nonsenses

A great video and exceptional great content. Well-described information and helpful. Thank you so much for sharing this video. I will surely share this blog with my friends.

Hahah you inspired me to start my blog in Aug 2021!!
This was very informative and valuable to me! Thanks for sharing with us!!!
This is real motivation, going to write some posts now...
Hello Syed Ali, How it's going so far?
Very inspiring! I'm somewhere between 40 and 100 blog post at this point. My goal is to hit 100 before the end of the year matching at least the low performing page views and earnings. Of course, I'm shooting for more but I'll be happy with even your lowest numbers.
This obviously assumes that your blog uses a combination of affiliate marketing and ads on your blog for monetization AND that your articles are SEO optimized AND that your write consistently and often within your first year.
Income School is the way to go,..Thanks Jim

How to write content, whenever I see a blank screen or blank paper,. There will be always a ghost beside me🥺
Frankly, 2020 for me has been more like 15 posts 😪😪. Time to stop showering for 3 months in 2021 😃...!!
Hahaha, yeeeessss
Hahaha 😂
😂 😂 😂
Loool
And here I am wondering why I get 1 visitor a day. Thank you for videos like this!
A few things could be the issue.
1. Frequency of posting. Too far apart and people forget about you
2. Your niche is very niche. Getting people on board with your site could take time
3. Related, you are not marketed where your target audience is.
4. You don't quite have enough posts or those that are aren't linked to each other. I come see one and leave instead of looking around and potentially commiting.
5. Content might be too long and not skimmable. Does not retain attention, people stop coming.
6. There is no tribe. 1 person per day could mean your commited people are noncommital. Check up on them and get them excited (email, short post, etc)
7. You saw this coming; SEO.
This sounds fab, but I have about 150 pieces of unique content on my site, all well researched articles, and interviews, but I am only getting 3.5K page views a month? I would say at this stage over 100 articles are on for at least 8 months. I am wondering if I have just chosen weak keywords when I watched one of your keyword videos? I will keep going, I am almost 3 years at it, but really got stuck in a year ago, and still only at 3500 views, it is disheartening for sure, but I just need to get the formula right, perhaps my topic is too broad......
"I haven't showered for 3 months." Lmao. 😹
That was a great skit. It really motivated me plus it was factual. That was nice of you to let that guy take a shower :)
Hi, two questions:
1, project 24 is quite expensive for new bloggers, is there a payment plan?
2, the calculation only count current year's post numbers, how about the postings from previous year? Let's say a three year old blog, every year wrote 100 articles, 3 years 300 articles, even older articles might not have that many pageviews, but they still count a percentage, isn't it?
Thanks.
Is this revenue data per month or year? Also how many words per blog posts ?
Like 500-600 words
sweet just coming out of ghost town...done 487 articles this year
@Durbany my first $ 200 this month.
487 articles in 5 days, that's some freakin' fast typing :)
Kidding, I also find myself using "this year" when talking about 2020
Wow that's more than a post per day for the entire year. You deserve success for such hard work. Great job!
Total words?
Is it from ads or affiliate sales?
Great video ! Thank you for giving those interesting data!
It is interesting, but would the 80/20 rule apply in the sense that 20% of your blog posts will account for 80% of your traffic?
Yes, and I think that is what he was alluding to when he said that they see the highest views per post on sites with 75-150 posts. On a site with 500 posts, the majority of the traffic will probably come from the top 100 posts.
That being said, if you get really good at search analysis... your "bottom 80%" (the posts that only drive 20% of your traffic) can still drive very meaningful traffic. It is still worth "scraping the bottom of the barrel" even though it isn't quite as efficient.
At least that has been my personal experience.
@@coreyapotter especially true if we assume that people create content not just for the sake of it.
Awesome motivation. I made travel blog and I get 10-30 visitors daily. But not much revenue from Adsense. What I do with my website to grow earning?
Join project 24 , they will teach you everything.
Very interesting stats! Thank you! :)
