There are many ways that you can make money from a travelling blog, and there is many different ways to grow your followers.
Able To Blog and Stay At Home With Our family!
Saying Thank-you to out Visitors
Last month we broke the records for the most viewers ever! We had 13,852 Visitors to New Life on the Road.
I never realised that there was that many people interested in Travelling Blogs! So I started to search online…there are about 169,000,000 results for “Travelling Blogs”. I am now following over 15 travelling family blogs! Actually I am probably following more than that, but I don’t want to let David know how many blogs I am reading every day 🙂
How Can You Make Money With Travelling Blogs?
There are many ways that you can make money with Travelling Blogs. Its a matter of working out who your audience is (your amazing followers) and what you are willing to write about. I love blogging, sharing photos, and connecting with other families. The best way to do all of that is to have a Travelling Blog. What better way to share our family journey of buying a Motorhome, getting it ready, starting our trip, and exploring Australia.
Through New Life on the Road we have meet some amazing families, some amazing people, read about some amazing brave families who have packed everything up and moved overseas. Giving away stuff that they don’t need, or use, or even storing their stuff for later on. We are actually inspired by these families to follow our dreams, our heart and share our passion of travelling.
Here Is How We Make Money With Travelling Blogs
- Selling Affiliate Products. I will only sell Affiliate Products that I have either used myself, or have been recommended to our family via a trusted source. If I am going to put our “New Life on the Road” brand on the product then I want to know that I can believe in the product
- Writing or talking about a product. I have reviewed products that we use, and have promoted them via vlogs on our youtube channel. That is a great way for anyone that is interested in the product that I am sharing, to hear straight from the horses mouth (so to speak!) what I think or know about the produc
- Placing google ads on blogs. We used to have google ads on our travel blog, but since we have decided to go down another path with sponsorship we have taken our google ads off the blog. We were actually making a fair bit of money from google ads so it was a hard decision to take the ads away. We have even discussed putting the ads back on, but we know that the sponsorship direction is actually where our blog needs to be going
- Become a Internet Marketing Coach. I actually share how I blog, and what you need to do to get your blog growing with traffic with different Social Media techniques, Guest blogging posts, Link Exchange, commenting on other blogs and many other proven SEO technique
- Promote a Blogging Program. There are many ways to blog online, but if you dont know how to set up a blog, and what to write in the blog, or how to write then no one is going to be able to find you, and you soon be hidden within google! There are millions of blogs online, and if you want to rank in the number one spot on google then you need to know how to set up your wordpress Dashboard, rank your keywords and have the readers at your blog so that you can make the money. Here is one Blogging Program that I highly recommend – Travel Blog Success.

Thank you for sharing those tips Lisa. Wayne and I are finding that we have to adapt our whole mindset to think online rather than at home. It is an interesting yet exciting shift.

Wow! What awesome stats for the month! You must be so proud! I often wonder whether all these blogs in ‘blog world’ ever actually make any money consistently. Thanks for sharing your tips. 🙂
Hi Liz,
Its amazing to have that many visitors in one month! What is even more amazing, is the wonderful connections we are having with other bloggers, and travelling families! I love that we can meet other people, and share their journey (life) with our family, and we can also connect online/offline.
Cheers

This is a great post, Lisa! We’ve got a whole travel/tourism track at Blog World Expo (it’s being held in LA this November) that backs up everything you’ve said. I know many bloggers who consider themselves to be “nomadic” and actually make a living by traveling and blogging. It’s great! 🙂
