Typical Blog Wages – How Much Money You Should Make Blogging
First off there are no typical blog wages; not if you blog for yourself, and certainly not if you blog for others. Clients have different budgets, different advertising, and different situations. Still, everyone always asks about actual wages.
That said, I figured I’d post some wages that either I’ve accepted, or wages that I know other bloggers have accepted recently. This may help to give you some idea of what’s decent vs. unfair vs. really good.
Variables: In all of these situations, I’m assuming that one, the topic is one you know well, and two, you know how to do blog tasks easily. If you don’t know a topic well, or understand how blogs work, your wage goes down because you’ll waste time researching topics and trying to figure out how to work the blogroll. Also while some clients require say, five posts a week, you’ll need to consider that if you’re paid page views, you’ll likely be posting more often.
