FAQs

How much money Indian bloggers earn?

As per my experience in blogging full-time from 2015, an average blogger in India earns $300 – $500/month. Professional bloggers earn anywhere between $2,000 – $25,000/month, with a very handful beyond this. The top 20% of the bloggers earn 80% of the blogging revenue.

How many blogs are there in India?

I would say that there’ll be around 25,000 blogs in India. Wikipedia reported that were 10,000 bloggers in India in 2019 and the number has surely increased.

Can I earn money from Google Blogger?

Google Blogger is a not the preferred platform if you are serious about blogging. It lacks flexibility. Self-hosted WordPress platform is 100 times more better than the Blogger platform.

Is blogging profitable in 2023?

Certainly yes. As more and more people are diving online, it’s your opportunity to create content and provide value for them

Who pay bloggers?

It depends upon how they are monetizing their blog. If they are running Google AdSense ads, Google pays them. If they’re into affiliate marketing the respective product owners and companies pay them. Some bloggers like me even promote their own products and services.
