So far the topics that I have covered on the make money blogging area are advertising and selling your own products in a very simple and old fashion way, so now it’s time to explore other possibilities to make money blogging.
WP Auctions is a great free plugin that helps you put up auctions on your wordpress installation and allows you to have bids on the blog as they come, the bids and auctions are entered in your own database and you control every little detail on the auction. There are no 3rd parties involved here, that’s the most appealing part of this plugin to me at least.
Its a great way to auction of sites or domains or whatever you have that needs to be rid off in the most fluid way available today, auctions!
The part that I’d like to emphasize here is auctioning off domains and websites for the people who flip sites and domain as a profession while running a make money online blog, this is a perfect opportunity for you to engage your readers to be a part of your projects. Let’s say one of your readers buys one of your sites through the auction, then he’s mentioned in the next income report. This way he gets free publicity and is happy with what he/she bought from you.
Although WP Auctions is a free plugin, they do have to make money somehow so they offer some great styles for this plugin.
WordPress plug-ins have become an essential for professional bloggers. The benefits that come with many WordPress plug-ins has made it easier for bloggers to improve their blogs as well as save time with administration work. Here’s a look at some of the best WordPress plug-ins that are available.

This month has been like a roller coaster ride for me and my blogging journey specially, the growth on this blog has been substantial and really amazing, i did expect it to be huge but not this fast but not enough i guess, most bloggers talk about how they get offers from interested webmasters concerning buying out their blog, usually this is 10x their revenue, I was kinda hoping to get offers too but apparently i got none, its not that big of a deal for me but it is infact an ego downer. Yesterday i saw my blog’s selling price at 45n5, pretty impressive that it could sell at $8436. The price was calculated per subscriber to my rss, the rate was $18.something
Moving on, i changed the title and overall genre of my blog from seo to make money blogging because its what i talk about the most here, tips on blogging and how to make more money from your content, so yea, i think its a risky move but i’m still going for it.At the moment, I rank as follows.
Besides from that, these days everyone is trying to sell out their blog mostly because of the fact that summer vacations are coming up and they need cash to live it up or in some cases they want to start an even bigger project (hard to believe, but true). I would suggest selling out too because it’s all about making money through blogging, either keep the blog and work more on it then earn more too or sell out for a huge check
