How Many Pageviews Do You Need to Make Money Blogging?

How Many Pageviews Do You Need to Make Money Blogging? WHERE HAS THIS BEEN ALL OF MY LIFE?!?!?!?!!? I've spent hours searching on google trying to figure out how much money I should be making on my blogger blog... I suspected I should be making a lot with 100,000 pageviews and now I know I'm right! This is insanely helpful!

How Many Pageviews Do You Need to Make Money Blogging?

As a new blogger, I always wondered how many pageviews you needed to have to make money blogging. But when I spent time on Google trying to find the answer, I came up with nothing. And I spent a ton of time searching.

It was frustrating, to say the least.

Update: 4/5/20 You asked for it and I’m delivering! Starting NOW, you can grab the Trashed to Total Home Transformation Survival Guide (Pandemic Edition) For FREE! 

It teaches you step by step how to work with your personality to not only set up home routines that will work (no matter how many times you’ve failed in the past), but that you’ll stick to… long after the pandemic is over. 

We’ve taught hundreds of thousands of people how to use bare minimum consistent effort to completely transform their home (and life!). You’re up next. 

You can get your Survival Guide here for FREE… 

My pageviews and income.

I grew my blog to full time income in just 19 months (currently at 350,000 pageviews a month) and started working with other bloggers to help grow their blogs. As I got more experience working with bloggers, I answered my own questions.

I promised myself a long time ago to come back and write this article that I spent weeks unsuccessfully trying to find as a new blogger.

Because there’s nothing that you want to know more as a new blogger than how many pageviews you need to make money blogging!

The confusion with pageviews and income.

There’s a lot of confusion over how many pageviews you need to make money blogging. And for good reason. It’s hard for someone to give you a hard and fast number (but I will… bear with me) because there are so many variables that come into play.

I call it the “Do you know what you’re doing?” factor.

That means that if you have no idea what you’re doing or how to blog as a business, you could have hundreds of thousands of pageviews a month and be making just a few hundred dollars a month.

On the opposite spectrum, if you’re very experienced and know exactly what you’re doing… You could have 50,000 pageviews a month and be making $10,000/month from blogging easily. There’s even a cheat sheet called The First 10 Steps to a Profitable Blog that walks you through the things you have to get right in order to actually make money at this. You can get that cheat sheet for free here. 

The truth is, it’s not the pageviews that matter, it’s how you use them. But there’s a minimum number of pageviews where you should absolutely be earning a full time income (hold on…. we’re getting to that!)

 

The variables that affect how many pageviews you need to make money.

There are four main questions you need to ask yourself that affect the number of pageviews you need in order to make money.

  • What kind of foundation have you set?
    • Is your content, titles, and graphics engaging?
    • Does your blog have a crystal clear focus?
  • Do you have a newsletter list?
  • How do you make money?
    • Ads?
    • Sponsored posts?
    • Affiliates?
    • Your own products?
  • Is your audience engaged?
    • Does your audience care what you think?
    • Do they trust your opinion and seek your advice?

How many of those questions you answered yes to determine how much income you can make from the pageviews that you have.  The fact of the matter is that someone can make $5,000/mo with about 30,000 pageviews a month while someone else struggles making $500/month with 200,000 pageviews.

And that’s where most articles on the subject leave you. With a brief overview of why pageviews and income don’t always correlate closely.

But those articles drove me nuts when I was new.

So, we’re doing you one better.

At 100,000 pageviews a month, you should be blogging for full-time income.

How many pageviews you need to make a full-time income blogging.

If you have more than 100,000 pageviews a month on your blog (total pageviews, not unique) you should be blogging full-time (i.e. earning more than $3,500/month from your blog).

That doesn’t mean that the second you hit that 100,000/month pageview mark that someone will send you a check. It means that if you’re already at 100,000/month and you’re not pulling in full-time income then you’re doing something wrong (which is pretty common and isn’t a testament to your business sense or character at all).

Click To Tweet

That being said, if you have less than 100,000 pageviews and more than 30,000 pageviews a month, it’s possible to pull in full-time income from blogging if you really know what you’re doing.

Then the question becomes one of two things…

I’m not even close to 100,000 pageviews a month… How do I get to there?

Set a good foundation for your blog. If I thought I could teach it better than Elite Blog Academy, I would.  But I took Elite Blog Academy and that was the best course in the world for people who are trying to make a full-time income from blogging.

They took me from $18/month to full-time income in 10 months  and within 18 months this blog was supporting my whole family.

You need to work on the foundation of your blog. The foundation includes things like…

  • The way your site looks
  • The posts that you write
  • The titles
  • The graphics
  • The content
  • The structure of your blog.

Then you need to work on how to market your content effectively through social media (effectively being the operative word there).

Elite Blog Academy brings you through that step by step, but unfortunately, the class is only available once a year so you need to have almost perfect timing to get in. Your best bet is to get on the waiting list here…  

While you wait for the class to open up, your best bet is to go step by step through the First 10 Steps to a Profitable Blog worksheet and focus on each step in order. 

What? I have over 100,000 pageviews and make almost nothing from my blog! What do I need to do?

If you aren’t making a full-time income from blogging and you have over 100,000 pageviews then you’re probably equally excited and frustrated by this news. It’s not fun to waste time doing the wrong things!

Why aren’t you making money from blogging if you have over 100,000 pageviews?

First, you need to identify what you’re doing wrong…

  • Are you self-hosted?
  • Do you have a newsletter list?
  • Are you in a premier ad network?
  • Do you accept sponsored posts?
  • Do you have an affiliate marketing strategy?

Those are the things that will directly affect your income.

 The order in which to increase your income if you have over 100,000 pageviews a month.

Get Self Hosted.

If you aren’t self-hosted, you should do that first.

You can grab hosting for only $3.49/month here. Need a step by step guide for those that suck at computers? You can find that here.

Get Better Ads.

Once you’re self-hosted,  join a premier ad network. Join Adthrive if you have over 100,000 pageviews a month or Mediavine if you have over 25,000 pageviews but haven’t cracked 100,000 yet.

There may be a waiting list, but this will give you an instant income boost. Just for an example, my RPM with Adsense and Media.net was $2 RPM and with Adthrive it’s $11 RPM.

So for the same 100,000 pageviews a month, I would be making $200/month in ad income with Adsense and Media.net or $1,300/month by switching to Adthrive (which will only accept your application if you have over 100,000 pageviews a month). Keep in mind that everyone’s RPM is different and I have a fairly aggressive ad strategy that you can read more about at the bottom of this post, but that’s a good example.

Focus on Your List.

Your email/newsletter list and affiliate marketing go hand in hand. The best course of action is to invest in the Core Affiliate Strategy which step-by-step leads you through how to make (a lot of!) income from affiliate marketing.

The best part of that strategy is that it teaches you how to grow your affiliate income as fast as possible without requiring you to work more hours by using the 80/20 rule.

When you have affiliates mastered, then I would analyze your current content. Make sure your foundation is solid going forward. If you’re kind of just “winging it” and still getting over 100,000 pageviews then you should absolutely grab Elite Blog Academy which sets the foundation of your blog as a business.

Elite Blog Academy covers everything from your content, your graphics, and the business structure and strategy. It’s AMAZING. I can’t recommend it enough. If you look at your titles, content, and graphics and you know that you have a solid strategy and that they’re converting well, then leave EBA on the table for now and focus on affiliate marketing.

My caution is that if you’ve been winging it and your getting over 100,000 pageviews a month then your potential is actually so much more than that. Elite Blog Academy would firm up your foundation and teach you how to blog from brainstorming to business structure. Again, it’s only available once a year so you need to have almost perfect timing. Your best bet is to sign up for the waiting list here.

How much are others making blogging and what are their pageviews?

Pinch of Yum – January 2016 Income Report – 5,905,833 pageviews – $70,000+ income.

Just a Girl and Her Blog – June 2016 Income Report – 450,000 pageviews- $32,913 income

Matthew Woodward – June 2016 Income Report -121,202 pageviews-  $19,357.38 income.

What Mommy Does- October 2015 Income Report– 316,403 pageviews- $7,495 income.

The Busy Budgeter (Me!) – May 2016 Income Report– 380,880 Pageviews – $22,930 income.

Believe in a Budget- January 2016 Income Report– 120,000 pageviews – $3,640.89 income.

Our Small Hours – January 2016 Income Report– 160,009 Pageviews – $2,668.78 income.

*While there are quite a few blogs that release income reports, few of them release their pageviews as well… If you decide to release your income report in the future, consider throwing your traffic report in as well, it helps new bloggers to see the correlation.  

That should answer every question you have about how many pageviews you need to make money blogging.

Update 11/16/2017: If you’ve got over 100,000 pageviews and are looking to increase your blog’s income, the FREE guide to Finding Affiliates that Work for You is a MUST GRAB. It even lists all of the top affiliate programs in every niche, organized by commission and topic. Grab it for FREE here for a limited time.

    Thanks! This was a great post.
    I’ve been running a blog for about 8 months now, and I seem to be stuck at the 2,000 page view/month mark. I’m revamping my Pinterest strategy (your guide has been very helpful, I just need to redo some of my ugly images – lol!) to try and grow. I’m also on the waiting list for the EBA course, but it seems like I’ve been on it forever and it hasn’t opened. Hopefully it will soon!

      You can check your page views in Google Analytics.
      even 1 unique visitor can give you 10 page views if she checks 10 of your blog posts

        It is not a good idea to be using multiple social media to promote your blog.limit yourself to Two, for now.Grow ypur presence there.I suggest stumbleupon and facebook/twitter. have your own page on facebook.pay a dollar ot two to boost your popular posts on fb.

        add great images to your posts.I use unsplash

        Don’t forget to join fb groups relevant to your niche.

        This is not an expect advice.I have a month old blog and i get 80-100 pageviews, 50-60 uniques daily using fb and stumbleupon.pinterest does not work for my niche, relationship blog.

        i started from 2 uniques to 40 in two weeks.keep learning.Don’t lose hope

    I’m averaging about 80K pageviews/month (hoping to crack 100K soon!) and earning between $800-$1000 month via ads and sponsored posts. I’ve been pretty terrible at affiliate marketing, but it’s something I want to work on in the coming months. I am also working on creating my own product to sell. Thanks so much for sharing your insight…it gives me encouragement that I can earn a lot more without drastically increasing my pageviews.

    Very helpful information Rosemarie. Thanks for posting. It is kind of a wake up call also. I am over 40,000 pageviews per month and I feel like I have been in the winging it category. (totally sucks by the way). I have been improving my titles, images and content so hopefully that will pay off.

    Great post, thank you so much! I only announced my blog in May and my page views are low. I had 12,000 views in June, but went down to 8,000 in July. I only have one ad up as I have heard you should have a total of 50,000 views before monetizing (I am at 27,000 total). Do you agree with that? One of the things I would love to learn more about, is how to get more engagement from my readers. Thanks again for sharing your knowledge

    Great post!!! I’ve been blogging strong on my DIY blog for about 3 years now and use Adsense as my way of income. I’m wanting to switch over to a higher paying ad company and also would like to come up with some kind of product to sell on my site for additional income, although I just haven’t thought of a good product yet that people would purchase. My blog has a busy season and a slow season. My busiest month (Oct.) averages about 100,000 visits, I earn about $150 on Adsense, and I get about 280 subscribers that month. My slowest month (Jan) I get around 16,000 visits, earn about $10 on adsense, and get around 50 subscribers that month. Does anyone else have a busy month and a slow month like me? Along with wanting to earn more money, I also would like to figure out how to engage my readers a little more as getting them to leave comments on my posts is like pulling teeth! LOL Always looking for ways to improve my site so any advice would be greatly appreciated!!! 😉

    Great post – one I needed to read 🙂 I started blogging in march when I started EBA, and had 130,000 page views in August. I’m incredibly proud of the work I’ve done, but this post really tells me I need to work HARDER – I just don’t know what directon to work harder in. I made about 350$ with adsense in July and 400$ in Aug (adthrive set up ads two days ago woohoo!) BUT I am making NOWHERE NEAR full time income. I took the affiliate marketing course… I just can’t bring myself to write sponsored posts… I’m working on an ebook that I’m pretty sure will appeal to about 15% of my readers tops. I feel like the blog is running off ahead of me and I’m just stumbling along behind it. What should be the logical next step for monetization after “success” at ads – but while you’re still struggling to figure out content creation and growing loyal readers??

    Hey! I absolutely loved this post! I have been blogging for almost 7 months now, and I feel like I just don’t get the pageviews I should be. I believe I have a great blog that many would enjoy, have good graphics, a great site, and pretty good content. I recently took a free pinterest class from Melyssa Griffin and it definitely helped, but maybe not as much as I was expecting. I’ve revamped pinterest, and it’s slowly working, but I just feel like I’m way behind for how long I’ve had my blog. I should have more monthly pageviews! I only recieve about 600-1000 pageviews/month! I think that’s really low for the quality of my blog and how long i’ve had it. I’ve always wanted to invest in Elite Blog Academy, but as a student it’s nearly impossible while also paying for stock photos, hosting, etc. Is there anything you see wrong in this equation?

    Love this! EBA has been the biggest key for me. The added punch from MIchelle’s course really helped, too. I had my lowest month with 65k pvs since my pageviews skyrocketed in April at 175k pvs(i.e.: 2 months after starting EBA), but thanks to a better affiliate strategy, it was my highest-earning month yet! It’s all about doing more right things instead of spending time on the little stuff.

I would have never guessed that blogging could bring me so much joy! You are so inspiring! I’ve only been blogging for a month and a half with only 1200 page views per month but I am loving it so far! I hope that eventually this thing I have come to love so much can make me a living!

    I’m doing pretty well with affiliate marketing since I have a youtube channel and have my own products I make, but can I get ads on my blog even though I’m technically starting from 0 pageviews? I’m launching it Nov 22 and wanted to be ready with ways to make income right off the bat! Are there any other options? I’m desperate to quit my day job in 9 months.

    I am with some of the others… I have only 1,000 1500 plus pageviews on a good month. I dropped drastically in November to like 250-500 but getting back into 1500s range. I almost saw 2,000 once and that was exciting but getting past that seems so hard!!! My goal was to hit 100,000 and I took EBA this past year. The only thing I can think is that I haven’t been consistent in posting and my newsletter. I have 1030 email subscribers. And my main focus is to post 2 times a week this year using everything I learned last year and your 10 hours per week strategy. i work full time, have three young kiddos, and run an online shop the Dashing Pearl which gets a few orders every week, not a ton but my goal was to blog about crafting, organization and craft business to attract more ppl to my site via the blog and make a full time income from it. I even prefer my blog to be the front runner over the shop. I blog at http://www.craftingabeautifullife.com so any tips is so appreciated. I’m growing up “know what I’m doing knowledge” to that I’m as effective as possible in the 10 hours I’m commuting to putting in!!! Maybe will have to hide the phone as well!!

    Thanks Rosemarie!!! Your emails and blog are always my favorite to read!!!

    It’s a really nice post I’ve ever seen. The real truth behind earnings are “The Pageviews”.

    Coming to the point where you’ve mentioned ”How much are others making blogging and what are their page views?”

    On comparing ‘Believe in a Budget’ with ‘Our Small Hours’ earning reports, there is a huge page views difference as well as earnings.

    This shows how Believe in a Budget blog has optimized their blog to perform well to increase their income. It’s the time to learn new strategies to earn well with blogs having decent page views.

    Thanks for this awesome post and I really appreciate your work.

    WOW… so I’m about 50k/month after 12 months and earn about $40/month between affiliate marketing and ads, but that doesn’t include the revenue from my products (which are separate). Definitely need to up my game as I get closer to the 100k mark. At the rate I’ve been growing, the 100k mark should be in about 3-4 months. I would be happy to share page views and revenue later.

    You’ve provided some great advice and plenty of useful links. Your list of the pageviews of various bloggers and how much they earn was particularly interesting. A bit disappointing that you need so many views to earn a descent amount. Although the amount you earn can vary significantly depending on the niche, the CTR and commission amount. All these variables need to be factored in.

    Great article! The only thing that sucks is that it always leads to EBA which is very high priced for people that aren’t making money. You have to pay money to make money, I get that, but the course really doesn’t need to be that expensive. And I have been blogging for 7 years, still have never hit 100k but find ways to earn that don’t involve page views. It’s all about niche and your style. MAYBE if EBA was half of what they are charging I would do it.

My blog only came about as an extra resource to my students (I’m a music teacher) and it seems to have taken off straight away… Nowhere near the point of making cash from it but it’s very rewarding to see the analytics grow! I’m going to have a pop at implementing your Pinterest strategy.

    It’s taking me a while (self-taught/trial&error) to get the hand of blogging and feel I got a good flow this month so wondered about whether I should go premium on word press – would the money made balance out the cost. I got 480 views this month so far which is better than I guessed (140), so maybe paying for a domain isn’t so stupid….

    This is a great post!
    So glad I came across it! Thank you so much for sharing!

    I really think you can make money even with not many page views, but if you can have a lot of readers, it’s definitely easier to make more money, especially when you are still learning how to monetize your blog (and from my little experience, that takes a long time!)

    This is my third month blogging (Travel). This month so far (upto 20th) I’ve had 1000 unique users and have made about $20. The first month I have actually made anything. Most of that $20 has come from affiliate marketing, I’m really enjoying the TripAdvisor Affiliate program right now, I’m seeing great results.

    Hi. This is great info. I recently just started my blog last week (www.thediynuts.com) and am curious when you recommend worrying about ads, affiliates, etc? How many page views should you work to get before you worry about this? Or is this something you should set up right from the start.

    Thanks!

    Thank you for your transparency and for sharing this information. It’s very useful information and I’m grateful. My blog is about 3 months old and my traffic has been steadily growing. Recently, though, I’ve had a disturbing discovery regarding my blog traffic. Owners of long established blogs have been targeting my blog to link to their own content. In essence, they are stealing traffic, I encountered the same issue on Pinterest. The good thing is Pinterest takes it down. Do you have any advice on what I can do about this? I’ll be very grateful. Again, thank you for sharing your knowledge.

    Hi Rosemarie!

    Thanks for a real and raw post, very helpful!

    I’ve been blogging for about 20 months now and am about to (finally) break 10,000 page views per month. I feel like I heard that there was a good advertising company (similar to Mediavine) but didn’t require the 25K sessions. Do y9u know of this one?

    I should probably restart EBA as well. I got off track but now I’m desperate to finally break through and earn a real income.

    Cheers,
    Leah

    This is such great information! I’ve been blogging for over a month but don’t get up to a 1,000 pageviews yet. I use Pinterest/tailwind and Facebook groups for my marketing.

    I also try to optimize posts on my site and hope these all pay off soon.

    Thanks Rosemarie! Great info. I’m finalizing my 2020 goals and just found this post. I can’t believe I haven’t seen it before this, perhaps I wasn’t looking.

    You inspired me to start my blog and join EBA in March 2018 while working 60 hours a week. I had zero idea what I was doing and didn’t get my first post published until Septemeber of 2018 – tech stuff sucks!

    I’m still working 40 + hours a week and am currenty in Unit 6 of EBA with 12,000 pvm on the blog and an email list of just under 300. It’s a slow process when combining with a full-time+ job, but the potential is so exciting.

    Thanks again for the info and the inspiration!!!

    I have about 30,000 views a month right now and I’m averaging $500 a month in income. The struggle seems to be that my traffic flatlines and then jumps up, but I can’t seem to predict what to do to make it jump. I think Pinterest is a different beast than it was many years ago. In any case, I am publishing income reports (with pageviews) in the hopes that it helps someone who is a little farther back than me.

    Thanks, this provided some great insight.. I’m a beginner so I’ve been a lot of this kind of research. My blog is only 3 weeks old, I do realize that it’s going to take time, so far I’ve had just under 400 visits.

    I’m not a complete newbie, I have dabbled many years ago when content library sites comprising of contributer content were popular. (hubpages, squido).. Obviously a lot has changed since then.. Anyway thanks so the info, I found it helpful and encouraging.

    I’ve been blogging for a number of years now as a hobby. Only about a year ago did I start really taking it seriously and average about 30,000 views a month in traffic. Between ads and other affiliates I’m averaging approx. $600 a month. I missed EBA this past round but will be taking it the next time it opens up. I really loved this post, Thank You!

    Thanks for the information given. I would however like to know which blog engines offer money on just page views because it seems as if the ones I know aren’t paying one according to the number of pages viewed but a person only gets paid through ads but I do not want to have ads on my blog. In that way I’m looking for a blog where I can make money through page views. I have a blog on blogger.

I quit my job as a nurse to be a full-time stay at home mom. So I’m hoping my blog picks up in the next year to help contribute!
