I have been in the blogging business for over 10 years now—not only do I own the leading and most read Ghanaian Entertainment & Celebrity focused blog, GhanaCelebrities.Com, I also own several other blogs and have helped several people start a blog from which they are making huge amounts of money each month.
Making a living from a blog is easy than most people think; if I can do it—and have set up blogs for others to also be making full time income from their blogs, then you can also do it too.
It’s not rocket science—it takes a little effort, dedication and support from people like myself who have been in the business for long.
Apart from making enough from my blogs for my upkeep, including paying my expensive monthly UK rent, bills and others, I also paid for Law School with the revenue from my blogs; this is the reason why I did not take any student loan in the United Kingdom.
And it cost a hell lot of money to go through the Law School—so this should give you an idea as to the limitless revenue potential of any blog.
A few weeks ago, I wrote about setting up a blog for less than 100 GHS, from which you could make as much as 5000 GHS easily each month.
Though most people signed up, there were technical difficulties in setting up the blog—some could not also grab this fine opportunity to turn their income around because setting up a blog demands some server or IT technicalities.
As such, I have decided to set-up free blogs for anyone who wants to get into the blogging business.
All the person has to do is purchase a hosting plan from iPAGE, the company I use in hosting some of my blogs—and forward me the needed details. Within 2 days, I will have the person’s blog up running on the web for him or her to start writing and start earning some good income.
Beyond my personal blog success story, I have helped several people with blogs and today they are making more than they could have ever made from any job in Ghana.
My sister quit her job as a nurse in Ghana late last year to become a blogger and she is making three times the salary she earned as a nurse in just 2 and half months—and she just started so she will soon be racking things up.
Some years ago, I helped a friend-Ameyaw Debrah from Ghana with a blog just as I am about to help you, and today he is making a lot money from it as a full time blogger based in Ghana. I bought his domain name, provided a web space/hosting and designed his blog for him.
What’s A Blog?
Traditionally, a blog is an online diary where people share their opinions and thoughts on whatever interest them. So it’s some sort of diary which a person writes, and others read—some allow comments from readers and others do not.
Today, we have some blogs which are literally online newspapers, disseminating news and information to their many readers.
What Do You Need to Start A Blog?
You only need two things to start a blog; a domain name and a web server/hosting.
Domain Name: The domain name is your blog’s name; I mean what people will type or click on to be able to visit your blog. As a human being, you have a unique name which is used to identify you—so your domain is like the unique name of your online business.
Here, I am talking about the www.
Domain names function on the Internet in a way similar to a physical address in the physical world. So if I want to visit your blog, I will do so using your domain name.
Web Server/Hosting: The web server is the space where all your blog files will be kept. So when you write something on your blog, it is kept somewhere securely for you so that others can read it—that’s the web server.
It’s like renting a room where you would keep your diary—so that anytime someone wants to read or see your diary, it will be found in that room.
Where Do You Get Your Domain & Web Server/Hosting From Cheaply & Reliably?
There are several web hosting companies online but I use and would recommend IPAGE to you for 5 simple reasons;
1. IPAGE Hosting is cheap—with less than 2 dollars a month, which is less than 24 dollars a year (that’s less than 100 GHS a year), you can start a blog and join the many folks online making money through blogs, and sharing opinions, thoughts and news.
No where would you find a web hosting space less than 100 GHS for the whole year—except with IPAGE.
2. IPAGE is reliable—-you wouldn’t want your blog to always be off when people try to visit or when you want to publish/post something on there. When it comes to IPAGE, they have a high 99% uptime. So you are guaranteed that your blog will always been online, and it will always be fast.
3. IPAGE has 24/7 Support—what I love most about IPAGE is the fact that they provide 24/7 support to all their customers. So if you have any problem with your blog, they are available every time to help you solve it.
They are quick and the support is FREE.
4. They Accept Ghana Debit Cards—One of the problems of buying anything online from Ghana is payment. Beside paypal and other international payment methods, IPAGE easily and securely accepts debit cards from Ghana.
So you can use your normal Ghana debit card to pay for your web hosting and bingo you are good to go.
5. IPAGE Offers Free Domain Name—As I mentioned earlier, you need a web sever/hosting and a domain name to start a blog.
When you decide to go with IPAGE, you only pay for the web hosting which is less than 100 GHS for a year and they will give you your chosen domain name for FREE to go with it.
So you don’t have to pay for the domain which you would normally do if you decide to use a different hosting company.
6. IPAGE Has 100% 30 Days Money Back Guarantee—When it comes to IPAGE, they care about the customer experience so they have 100% anytime money back guarantee for everyone who decides to use them.
This means, if within 30 days you don’t like their service, you can request to cancel your service with them and ask for all your money back. As demanded by law, they will do so and give your money back to you so you lose nothing.
Remember, if you do not want to make money from a blog, you can simply start a blog to share your thoughts, opinions and ideas with the world.

How to You Make Money Now That You Have Your Blog Set Up & Running ?
Whenever you visit a website or a blog, I am sure you see several adverts on those pages you visit—that’s one of the ways via which the owners get paid. Several advertisement agencies exist and are ready to place advertisements on your blog, paying you anytime someone visits your blog or click on the adverts.
It’s pretty simple; and I have in depth resource materials on this which will help once your blog is up.
