You’re on the road, without a “real” job. How do you make money with your travel blog?

Hostels are your home, long-distance buses a constant companion. You have seen things your friends will never understand. You have eaten unimaginable delicacies. Life is good. For how long? You have no income.

Making money with your travel blog is one way to earn a little extra cheddar as you traverse the Alps or follow the Silk Road. Blogger-extraordinaire Matt Kepnes of Nomadic Matt’s Travel Blog has released a new e-book: How to Make Money with your Travel Blog. The world-traveling Kepnes, veteran blogger, shares his secrets on how to stay in the black while pursuing your travel dreams.

Nomadic Matt makes $3000 per month from his internet ventures. I ponied up and bought his e-book.  It is well laid out and offers great information for both blogging newbies and seasoned pros. Learn:

• How to create and set up a blog
• Get traffic
• About SEO (Search Engine Optimization) voodoo
• Making money.

The list price of $27 does seem a little steep, but I made five-times the price of Matt’s e-book the first week after purchasing it. That’s a great return on investment.

Whether you’re just starting up or a nomadic road warrior I recommend reading Matt Kepnes’ How to Make Money with your Travel Blog.
