Create Quality Content: Start creating high-quality articles that provide value to your target audience. Aim for at least 30 articles to begin with to establish a substantial content base.

Generate Traffic: Share your articles on social media platforms, forums, and relevant online communities to attract visitors to your website. Consider investing in paid advertising to boost traffic.
Apply for Advertising Networks: Once you have a decent amount of traffic, apply for advertising networks like Google AdSense. These networks will display relevant ads on your website, and you'll earn money when users click on them or view impressions.
Affiliate Marketing: Join affiliate programs related to your niche and promote products or services using affiliate links within your articles. When visitors make a purchase through your affiliate links, you earn a commission.
