I often get asked if I make money from my blog.  The answer is yes!  I do make money from blogging.  Do I make a lot of money from blogging?  No!  I don’t make anywhere near enough money to consider it an a full-time or even part-time income, but I’m okay with that.  The truth is,  I never set out to make money from blogging so the little bit of money that I do make from it is just an added bonus.  I’m not an expert on making money from blogging because it’s something that is still so new to me.  There are so many different ways that bloggers make money and I don’t feel comfortable writing a “how to make money” blog post on the topic.  If you want to learn exactly how you can monetize your blog there are a million blog posts out there written about affiliate marketing, sponsored posts, ads, and however else bloggers make money.  Just google it!  I do want to share my story of how I started a blog as a hobby and turned it into a fun way to make a little extra bonus money on the side.
