Having a website is somehow similar to running a blog. It is an online business that can make one good amount of money if you plan it right, there are some things you should put into consideration before you can venture into so as not to regret doing it because that will be very disappointing. The things one should consider are;

1. The purpose of the site
2. The design
3. How to get attraction

1. The purpose of the site: without any argument, I believe any responsible business minded person will have a purpose of what he or she is about to establish, so the same thing go for setting up a website. You need to have a motive, what the site will be based on, maybe an online store, or probably a website to get latest gist and so on. It must have a particular purpose it is being created for.

2. The Design: In this aspect, it must be taken important because this is what people will first see so it must be beautiful and attractive, you have to make sure the logo and the symbols representing the brand must be excellent.

3. How to get attraction: You have to work on this and be very serious about it because it is the most vital aspect of them all as a new brand, you can do this by working on advertising it on every platform possible, even on media houses, and also create some referral bonuses to gain more customers and users.

Having a website is just like having a blog and of course it is one of the best decisions anyone can take but it is very important you have proper knowledge of what you are writing off before you can start. Having purpose is very important for any website because no one just opens a website just to make money without having a particular niche. You must choose a very lucrative niche and in some cases it is important which is less competitive niches so that you can be able to rank and monetize your website on the long run. if you want to start up a website it is very important you know how to create good content because this is one of the main reasons people will continue to visit your website. you must try as much as possible to provide solutions to what people are looking for and from here you can be able to monetize your website through Google adsense. You can also make money from your website promoting different affiliate products. I have someone who made some good amount of money writing articles on his website and putting affiliate links on his contents. You can also make money promoting your own product through your website.

Making money from a website is something that is considered common way of making money, but I think that there are various things a person must consider before actually starting a blog or website. One of those things is time. Time is really important. many website builders and blogger start a website with the intention of making money too fast. They usually believe that they will start making money from a website outright or within a few month. However, the fact of the matter is that this is clearly an erroneous belief due to many reasons,. First of all, it takes a lot of time to generate traffic that would allow you to make passive income.

I know that when a blogger waits for a long time and see that he is not getting traffic, then things could get frustrating in this scenario. In this case, the effort you put into your blog counts a lot. You must ask yourself: how much effort am I putting into making my blog more popular? There are plenty of ways you could make your blog popular and some of them include digital marketing and social media promotion. Making money just by creating a blog is not easy. Only a handful people become successful out of thousands.

A website is a collection of web pages (pages on the internet). The website can be of different types, for example, a bog, a forum, a company website, an online magazine, an online store, eCommerce platform, etc. If you want to build a website and use your website for making money, you can do it in many ways. Start a blog. A small investment, serious dedication and a good return that’s what blogging is all about.

You may start any kind of website you want, but you need to understand a couple of things about making money from websites. First of all not all website earn through advertising and affiliate sales, some websites earn by selling is own unique products, some website offers subscription on certain things and earn from subscription, some website are selling physical and digital products and making money. On a blog and forum you will see running ads as the primary way to earn. On online stores, you will see the products listed for sale as the main way to earn, some websites are selling subscriptions to earn , etc. For instance, Grammarly website or Semrush website are earning from subscription, Amazon is earning by selling products, Facebook is earning by advertising. Some wehsites are not for earning, they are doing just a social service (wikipedia for example. Even the company's website is not there for making money, these websites purely exist for branding the business. If you want to earn from your website, you need to understand different websites earn differently and how much you can earn depends on what your website is doing. You can't expect to earn from your blog as much as ecommerce site

The first thing to consider
Before starting a website is the niche. The niche is basically the area.of specialisation of the blog or the website that you wished to start out. The area of specialisation is basically what you know about and willing to share the idea with the people who have interest in the niche that you have taken. The niche could be focuses on so many areas of life. This type of blog is termed the single niche blog. In this type of blog you will be talking about specific things like digital marketing, cryptocurrency , forex etc. It is however very important tat you choose the niche that you have e interest in . The niche that you will choose will be the one that you will never get tired with anytime, anyday. This is because it is blog that is expected to last for a very long time and that is why the niche that is advisable for you to choose will be the one which caught your interest. The one which you will never get tired of talking about. The zeal is what is needed here all the time. On the other hand, it could be multiple niche blog or website. With this type of niche, you will have so many niches combined together. You may combine cryptocurrency and forex . Etc

Those are very good points you have made. Indeed building a website is one of the best methods of earning these days. But first you will have to do research and read extensively on ways in which you can use the site to earn. That will prevent you from venturing into something that you don't really know how to profit from it.

A website can be used as a blog where you write about different things. You may choose a niche and write solely about it or write about different niches. You can also use the website to write about products or services that you are selling. That way, it acts as your online store.

Then you need to know how to make the site as attractive as possible. This is by arranging it's layout to be so simple and easy to navigate. It should also have a good theme and a good logo.

Lastly you must know how to get traffic to the website. Traffic is what will make you earn, whether it is through ads or getting customers to view your products and services. Of which the traffic can be organic or paid, the former one is the best for a site.

A blogger is basically one of the ways to earn money passively on the Internet and that is why of ther people that are making something very reasonable online are actually doing so because they have the source of making a passive income for themselves. I have seen many people work on several blogs are they are actually earning from those blogs. It will be a thing of joy for every online earners to make a passive income for themselves.

Blogging is actually the solution and obviously the way out. So many prefer to own a single niche blog. This is when you blog on a single topic of discussion. You do not consistently yourself Blogging using other means but you will be concentrated on a single topic.

Your specialisation could be on insurance. With the insurance, you could start writing only on insurance. You will not deviate because your audience who have the interest on insurance will always search for your website whenever they needed information on insurance. It could also be a multi- niche blog , where you will have many contents on so many areas. You could combine insurance and forex. You will specialise on so many niches with this.
