Hello, I am thinking of starting a blog on tips on how to write a research project aimed at students and research professionals. I would like to write about every stage of the research process. I would very much like to make some money out of it through placing adverts using Google AdSense and I am also looking to Amazon affiliate programmes as another possible source of income. Since my blog is on an educational subject I am not sure whether it is appropriate to make money out of it. What do you think?
1) you can do as you wish. Writing is a job just as any other.
2) no one is going to pay you, and your ad revenue is going to be zero for the first two years.
Unless of course you are very experienced and people know you. That cannot be true because you’re here, asking this.
AdSense charges money to the advertiser according how many views your blog gets. It doesn’t charge your readers or viewers. It’s up to you to decide if that’s moral or not.
