Blogging is one of the best ways of making money online in Kenya. There are over 10 reasons why you should become a blogger.
For the first time, I can reveal that when I changed my career to become a blogger, my status changed. I used to become broke by date 4 every month but blogging helped me make extra income every month. It reached a time I made more money from blogging than from my full time job.
Blogging, YouTube and academic writing are some of the ways Kenyans make money but academic writing is risky because people might be barred from doing the work in future. YouTube is also risky because it’s a platform you don’t own. Blogging is excellent because you own the blog and have full control of it.

- It’s cheap to start (requires a capital of less than Ksh10, 000)
- You become your own CEO
- It’s flexible, you can work from anywhere and anytime of the day.
- You have many ways of earning money (AdSense, AdSense alternative, affiliate marketing, sponsored posts and direct banner ads)
- You earn money while sleeping.

- There is no stiff competition in blogging
- You are not exposed to risks because nobody will know what you earn unless you tell them
