The Internet offers an interesting combination of advertising and community by participating in the community you can become an advertisement for yourself.

If you can build a Facebook page and channel the audience to your website, you can generate revenue via PPC advertisement networks like Google Adwords, Taboola, Yahoo! Bing Network, AdRoll, 7Search, etc.

I had a blog for many years. Once you develop your readership on your blog, and you can put something out there or direct traffic or get attention - it's like a super power.

By having a blog, you can make yourself very accessible to your target audience. You can leave comments open on your blog so you can learn exactly what your audience likes about what you're doing with your business and about what they think you should change.

Blogging can generate a great deal of traffic to your online business.

You can't make money on advertising; you just have to seed the clouds. What you're after is word of mouth.

By taking the time to learn how to blog properly, you'll be doing your business an incredible favor, as you will be able to drive a lot of business to your website for your blog.

Do I think there's going to be a business in blogging? Yes.

I've set aside a nice chunk of my advertising revenue each month for giveaways, like a KitchenAid mixer. I like buying them for the audience, because without the audience I wouldn't have the blog or the revenue in the first place.

If folks focus in on a niche and own it, there is a good chance they could make half a living from blogging.
