How do you make money blogging? That is the most frequently asked question I get… ever!
I’m always happy to help someone learn how to make money from their blog, but it’s very hard to answer this question in just a few sentences. With 6 years of blogging experience, I learned along the way and figured out what works for me.
The women who has taught me the most, is my good friend Laurie Turk, founder of TipJunkie.com, a HUGE website with millions of hits per month.
This busy mom of three boys with no college degree is one of the smartest women that I know! Laurie figured it out because she wanted to stay home with her kids and earn money in her sleep. AND she does! ha! Because Laurie is a giving person, she doesn’t keep secrets about what she does and will tell you how she makes money.
Since not everyone is able to sit down and have a conversation with her (remember, I said she was a busy mom with a HUGE website to run), I’m thrilled that she created the Mom Blog to Money Blog Online Workshop for all bloggers and I’m giving away a workshop seat today!
About the Workshop
TheMom Blog to Money Blog online training workshop is for women who have been blogging for at least 3 months and want to know EVERYTHING Laurie has learned in the past 6 years earning money online.
The purpose of this workshop is to learn how to make money from Laurie, who makes SIX FIGURES a year just from Google Adsense.
After speaking at dozens of social media conferences, and meeting so many talented women who so desperately want {or need} to make money with their blogs, Laurie felt compelled to share ALL of her systems, strategies, and secrets to making money with her Blogspot blog turned WordPress blog turned Social Network site.
Are you ready to make some money?

Hi, Amy. Thanks for the awesome give-away! I blog about all things DIY for the home, with window treatments emphasized a little more heavily than most DIY blogs. When I started blogging a year ago, I knew nothing about blogs and not much about computers (other than word processing). After two on-line courses about the WordPress platform, I finally transferred to my own .com last summer. So, you can see I am a firm believer in learning more. I have so much yet to learn, too. 🙂 I just started my first ad last week. I’m now a follower – just found you through a blog buddy on Facebook. Blessings!
My blog is http://whatjayhastosay.blogspot.com. I have taken a break from blogging since having my baby girl, Charlotte, six weeks ago. Before I would write about whatever struck my fancy but I would like to transition into blogging about family, new momma stuff and young kids. Thanks so much for the chance!
