The bloggers you thought earn a lot of money are broke. There are bloggers and blogs which get low traffic but make a lot of money. Kenyan bloggers make money through AdSense, AdSense alternatives like MGID,affiliate marketing, sponsored posts, direct banners and by selling their own products on the blogs.
