How To Make Money From Writing A Blog?

HI everyone,
I really want to start a blog.
But I want to make a few bucks while doing it.
Where can I get started?
Do I have to create my own website or sign up to an already existing site?
Please let me know.
Thank you.

    There are 2 ways you can go
    1. Free blog. If you want this I recommend blogger.com . They are owned by Google and you can put Adsense ads on there. Which can earn you some money.
    2. Paid blog. They cost about $5 a month. The benefits of a paid blog is that you own it, so it has a resale value as a business. A popular blog can be worth more than 10 thousand. Also you have more freedom in terms of what you can do with it.
    Below I put 3 articles that can help you. The first one is about setting up a blog, the second one is about getting traffic to your blog and the third one is about how to make money, from that traffic.

    I would sugfgest using blogger.com or wordpress.com. Wordpress has a bit of a steeper learning curve but very versatile
    The important thing about starting a blog, especially if you want to make money from it is to be topic specific. Choose a topic that you can write a lot on and which has a market for it
    For a blog to make you a significant amount of money you need lots of visitors who are interested in your topichttp://ezinearticles.com/?Monetize-Your-… has a list of things you can do to make money from the blog but you really need to first build content and traffic
    Oh, almost forgot.http://bloggingmadeeasy.weebly.com/blogg… has a simple guide on setting up a free blog
    Good luck

    Starting up a blog is very easy, and monetizing it with programs like AdSense or affiliate programs through places like Clickbank.com are all very easy to do.
    The hard part is getting enough visitors to your blog to earn real money.
    Yes, you have to do some blog marketing. This means writing about what people are interested in reading.
    The way to get a lot of traffic is to have backlinks — links back to your blog from other websites. This is easy to do if you find other blogs in your same niche and then post comments on them, with those comments leading back to your blog.
    Another excellent way to get high quality backlinks is to answer questions on Yahoo Answers!
    I hope this helps you get started making money with blogs.

    Suggestions:
    You can either start you own or use an exisiting. Doesn’t really matter. Creating your own might take money. Using http://www.blogger.com is FREE.
    - Add Google Adsense (FREE) to your blog: http://www.google.com/adsense
    - Have people pay you for showing their banner ads on your website.
    - Use Google Analytics (FREE) to track how well your site is doing… so if you are getting LOTS of traffic… you can provide it to people when telling them that they should advertise with you. http://www.google.com/analytics
    - Talk to companies related to your blog’s content and tell them that you will blog or mention their product for a fee.
    Hope that gets you started.

    2 make money online via blogging we people use Google Ad sense.
    It basically put some adds on ur blog and when visitor click on add u get a share of some prefix money.
    But remember its not easy. First of all ur blog should get at least 5000 visitors 2 allow ad sense.
    After u have become popular enough den simply apply for ad sense
