How Much Traffic Do You Need to Earn $2000 Monthly From Blogging?

So the other day, I was chatting with a new blogger friend.

And she asked an important question:

.

Quickly, I ran the numbers….and calculated how much traffic it will take a brand new blog to break into the rank of 1 Million Naira monthly.

.

And guess what?

It all boils down to your blog monetization strategy.

.

Some strategies would require more traffic than others.

And in addition to that, it also depends on the niche.

.

There are some niches that when combined with a specific monetization strategy would require less traffic to earn.

.

So having cleared the air, below is a rough estimate of how much traffic you need to be yearning for if you want to hit N1 Million Naira monthly.

.

1. If your monetization strategy is based on displaying Google Adsense ads on your site, on average, you’ll need traffic that’s around 20,000 to 60,000 every month to hit N1 Million Naira ($2,000) and above with your blog.

This is assuming your blog is in a niche with a high Cost Per Click.

.

2. If you’re using Affiliate Marketing as your monetization strategy, you’ll need traffic that’s between 18,000 to 37,000 every month to hit N1 Million Naira Monthly from your blog.

Again, this is assuming your blog has a decent conversion rate and is also dependent on whether you’re an affiliate for digital products or physical products.

.

3. If you’re selling your own products (Physical Products) you’ll need around 15,000 to 25,000 monthly traffic to hit $2,000 monthly in sales (N1 Million Naira) every month from your blog.

.

4. If you’re selling your own products (Digital Products or Services) you’ll need around 7,000 to 15,000 monthly traffic to hit N1 million naira and above monthly.

So there you have it…

.

The amount of traffic you should start yearning for in order to start reaping maximum benefits from your blog.
