and many more have not one dime in profit!
Most have sold for large sums of money. But are not around anymore. But that's a good deal for the entrepreneurs, not the buyers.
Which, you're probably saying that's a good thing!
Not only are these blogs are the exception to the rule. They are countless failures. Infinite amount of failures that tried to be the next big blog.
An acquirer is looking to expand their information influence on the internet. To gain more advertising leverage in their central business. This is why you see so many blogs owned by conglomerates.
New York Times is not doing to hot since they have switched to a blogging business model.
Information is free. That's what the core of the internet is about.
Acquisitions and Venture Capital seems to be drying up for the little guy... Your chances of exiting are even worse because acquirers know how past entrepreneurs got the best of their acquirers. There's no free lunch. What goes around comes around!
So how do I make money on the internet?
You see blogs ask you turn this off?
They are having a hard time making money.
They simply have not created a profitable back end and are living in the fantasy world of advertisers paying for clicks.
Let's get this straight right now.
Facebook has more than 1.2 Billion users on their platform alone. Not including Instagram, WhatsApp, etc.
They are giving big Madison Avenue ad buyers a hard time.
Imagine the Trillion dollar Ad Market is getting beat up by Facebook.
If big Madison Avenue is having a hard time?
A blog's goal is to add influence and information to its' users.
The only way for blog to make money is to charge for back-end product/services.
The best blogging brands some how tie forced continuity into their business model.
Blog --> Book(s) --> Product --> Software
In short, if you don't create valuable back-end products you will not make money on the internet.
Think of a blog as the merchandising for your products and services.
It is the showcase for your high mark up products.
This is how retail works. This is how profitable blogs work.
So how do you differentiate the free valuable information from the paid valuable information.
I have spent at least $5000 in information products from copywriters John Carlton and Dan Kennedy because I loved their blogs.
But these guys know they save their best for last. Their best to get paid. Plus, I like all the curated information in one place for easy reference. Instead of bouncing back and forth for blogs.
Information Distillation saves time. Therefore people will pay money to gain time.

Good blogs enhance desire to buy if written correctly.
There is nothing more powerful than a sales letter styled blog to create demand for a specific result.
These copywriters stimulated my desire for the good life.
"Writing myself a pool."
Currently, I'm writing a bunch of books. I have written one on Filmmaking for Teens. Not many filmmakers have Major Motion Picture experience. I can talk about the ins and outs, the negatives and positives of Hollywood and Independent Filmmaking.
But the best, blogs, which mine will do, is increase your time by adding software and consulting services to create more fun in your life. Because, I am a software engineer and direct-marketer.
Very dangerous combination. Very exciting stuff.
The Law of Increase: Your prospect wants Increase and Extravagance for their dollar.
I have just spent a hell of time in a PUA forum. These guys are some greedy naive bastards. They are charging for podcasts. No one on the face of the planet pays for podcasts.
Not one.
They are charging for content. No one pays piece by piece content. It is wrapped into a membership or its free.
They also wonder where the traffic is going to come from?
There is this myth that you can just generate traffic by sitting on your ass in your underwear and if you build it they will come. There tons of tactics out there. Pay per Click is legit, but it doesn't address the traffic source completely.
The best source of traffic is from people bigger than you who you impress on the internet. You hit two birds with one stone. The Authority Bird and the Game Changer Bird.
What these forum members didn't realize is that internet is one big forum. But instead of rep points for free. You get paid for more rep points from fans, friends and influencers.
There are tons of traffic sources that just need the correct talent to unearth the hidden value. This is what a real elite entrepreneur does. Uncovers untapped traffic sources. There is no silver bullet to traffic sources. They come in all shapes in sizes. It is the best idea to always be brainstorming where the next great traffic source will be...
Who knew it was going to be Harvard undergrads?
or
Beanie baby fanatics on ebay..
This is part of the fun...
Most people want the successful life in obscurity.
This also doesn't exist.
More bullshit from bullshitters.
PS: Comments on blogs do not put one dime in your pocket. Ask any Manosphere blogger and see if he tells you the truth.
Those economics are piss poor.
