Sedan jag startade WPBeginner (för över 15 år sedan) är en av de mest ställda frågorna jag får från läsare: hur mycket pengar tjänar WPBeginner?
Vissa av you kanske tror att jag hittar på det här, men det gör jag ej.
Om du skulle söka efter WPBeginner i Google, då skulle du märka att ett av de högst upp relaterade nyckelorden är ”wpbeginner inkomst”.
Nu vet jag att flera populära bloggare delar detaljerade rapporter, och vissa av dem har till och med byggt sina varumärken kring det. Jag har haft flera Läsare berätta för mig att jag skulle vara mer populär om jag delade WPBeginner inkomstrapport, men ärligt talat, jag är inte intresserad av att ha läsare som gillar mig på grund av hur mycket pengar WPBeginner gör.
Jag vill att våra läsare ska gilla och följa WPBeginner för kvaliteten på det content som vi publicerar.
Men eftersom frågan om WPBeginners inkomst fortsätter att komma upp, vill jag ta lite tid och svara på den på bästa möjliga sätt utan att kompromissa med mina personliga core-värden.
Jag tror att utan problem och misslyckande är båda tillfälliga tillstånd, och det är viktigt att vara ödmjuk kl. Det är därför jag aldrig har delat några WPBeginner-inkomstrapporter.
Jag känner att bloggare som delar inkomstrapporter ”visar upp”, men det är bara min åsikt.
Jag förstår definitivt att många användare som just har startat en blogg tycker att dessa rapporter om blogginkomster är inspirerande.
Jag känner dock att delning av WPBeginners inkomst inte skulle vara till hjälp för våra läsare eftersom det är svårt att relatera till det.
Varför då?
Eftersom WPBeginner inte är ett typiskt bloggföretag. Vi tjänar inte bara pengar genom att sälja annonser eller affiliatelänkar. Faktum är att du inte ens kan köpa en annons på WPBeginner. Majoriteten av de affiliate-produkter som vi rekommenderar är sådana som vi själva använder.
Så, hur tjänar WPBeginner verkligen pengar?
Vi tjänar pengar genom att sälja vår serie programvara och tillägg till WordPress, inklusive: OptinMonster, MonsterInsights, WPForms, SeedProd, WP Mail SMTP, RafflePress, All in One SEO, Smash Balloon, och många fler.
Vår programvara används för närvarande av över 25 miljoner webbplatser.
Och en stor anledning till populariteten hos våra tillägg är WPBeginners marknadsföringskraft.
Även om vi inte säljer några tillägg direkt på WPBeginners webbplats, har den långvariga goodwill som vi har fått i samhället hjälpt oss att bygga upp oberoende varumärken för vart och ett av våra tillägg.
Notis: Vi har också investeringar i flera andra WordPress-fokuserade företag genom vår fond WPBeginner Growth Accelerator, som inkluderar MemberPress, Pretty Links, Formidable Forms, Advanced Coupons, ThirstyAffiliates, Uncanny Automator och WooCommerce Wholesale Suite.
Så vad är WPBeginners inkomst?
Det bästa sättet att tänka på WPBeginners inkomst är att titta på allt som den här bloggen har hjälpt mig att bygga. Med allt kombinerat har WPBeginner-bloggen hjälpt till att bygga en stark 8-siffrig årlig verksamhet.
Om jag skulle använda ”bloggbranschens lingo” skulle jag vara en åttasiffrig bloggare, men jag gillar inte den här etiketten (mer om detta under).
Eftersom ”åttasiffrig bloggare” inte är en vanligt förekommande term kanske några av er undrar vad det egentligen betyder?
You may have seen bloggers labeling themselves as ”six-figure bloggers” or ”seven-figure bloggers”.
I verklig mening definieras dessa etiketter som:
- Sexsiffrig – årsinkomst över 100 000 USD
- Sjusiffrig – årsinkomst över 1.000.000 USD
- Åttasiffrig – årsinkomst över $10.000.000 USD
När jag först började blogga var det min dröm att gå med i vad jag trodde var en klubb för ”coola barn”. Men allteftersom jag började blogga började jag verkligen ogilla den här etiketten.
Varför då?
Eftersom jag såg så många spammare och ”wanna-be online-experter” missbrukar etiketten för att lura nya användare att köpa sina bulls ** t tjäna pengar online / bli rik-quick kurser eller mentorskapsprogram.
Under följer några exempel på personer som missbrukar etiketten för att lura Beginners:
- Jag har sett bloggare använda etiketten sexsiffrig bloggare eftersom deras blogg fick över 100 000 besökare det året (eller ej intäkter).
- Jag har sett ”wanna-be-experter” använda etiketten sjusiffrig bloggare eftersom de arbetade för ett större företag som tjänade över en miljon dollar online, och de tar kredit för det (i princip ljuger).
- Jag har sett folk kombinera sina inkomster under 8 – 10 år för att anropa sig sex- eller sjusiffriga bloggare. Detta är en vanligt förekommande teknik i MLM / pyramidspelsprogram.
- Jag har sett några bloggare som tjänar sexsiffrigt, men det är i en annan valuta (så ej helt korrekt om du letar efter USD).
I grund och botten om du precis har börjat, vänligen var mycket försiktig när du notice någon märkning sig sexsiffriga eller sju siffror bloggare.
Om den här personen säljer dig en kurs som förmodligen kommer att hjälpa dig att replikera deras framgång, så är det 99,9% av tiden en bluff. Slösa inte din tid eller pengar.
Det finns inga genvägar till att tjäna pengar online.
Det krävs mycket arbete, och du måste behandla din website som ett riktigt företag. Ja, det är ett RIKTIGT jobb.
Så länge du är villig att göra benarbetet tror jag att du kan tjäna pengar på att blogga. Här är några artiklar som kan hjälpa till:

Slutliga tankar om WPBeginners inkomstrapport
Om du kom hit och letade efter det exakta WPBeginner-inkomstbeloppet, är jag ledsen att göra dig besviken.
Sanningen är att frågor som ”hur mycket pengar WPBeginner tjänar just nu” eller ”hur mycket WPBeginner tjänade för två år sedan” är meningslösa.
Att veta hur mycket pengar en annan bloggare / entreprenör tjänar kommer ej att hjälpa you att lyckas.
Tänk på det: Vi känner alla till nettovärdet för Bill Gates, Mark Zuckerberg, Elon Musk, Warren Buffett, etc. Att känna till deras inkomster hjälper oss inte att bli miljardärer.
Men att förstå och fokusera på rätt mätvärden kommer definitivt att hjälpa dig att sätta smartare mål, vilket som ett resultat kommer att hjälpa dig att lyckas med din online-satsning.
Om du precis har startat din blogg / online-verksamhet ska du inte vara besatt av andra bloggares inkomst. Det kommer att göra dig orolig och olycklig. Fokusera på ditt arbete och fortsätt vidarebefordran.
Det viktigaste är att du verkligen älskar det du gör.
När jag först startade WPBeginner (för över 15 år sedan) tjänade jag inte mycket pengar. Jag gillade helt enkelt att hjälpa människor att göra mer med WordPress.
Vårt mål på WPBeginner är att tillhandahålla banbrytande hjälpsamma WordPress tutorials som är lätta att förstå för småföretag, bloggare och icke-tekniska WordPress website ägare.
Och fram till denna dag har det varit vår prioritet nr 1. Jag tror att hålla fast vid våra värderingar har hjälpt oss att växa WPBeginner till den största inofficiella WordPress resource site i världen.
Jag vill tacka dig för ditt fortsatta support för WPBeginner, och jag ser fram emot att tillhandahålla ännu fler hjälpsamma WordPress tutorials och produkter som hjälper dig att utveckla ditt företag.
Om du gillade den här artikeln och vill följa min entreprenörsresa, vänligen överväg att följa mig på Twitter (för affärsinsikter) och Instagram (för roliga resefoton).
Vänligen överväga också att prenumerera på WPBeginner YouTube Channel för WordPress video tutorials. Du kan också hitta oss på Twitter och Facebook.

totally agree with Balkhi’s wise words – ”The focus should be on understanding the right metrics and providing value, rather than obsessing over others’ income numbers.” It’s easy to get caught up comparing, but knowing others’ income doesn’t really help. really appreciate that WPBeginner stays true to its mission of providing high-quality, FREE WordPress tutorials instead of getting sidetracked by showing income report.their success is well-deserved
Jiří Vaněk says
Great idea. I also read this article first to find out the exact number. However, the number does not matter. Great for me that you inspire me with your content and I have learned a lot here. And all this absolutely free. So if you’re earning eight figures, you definitely deserve it.

Thank you for being opening and sharing like you have, but please know that there are plenty of us out here in internet land that feel that it is certainly nobody’s business unless you and your company want it to be there business.
Your company deserves every penny of the money that you have successfully earned. Like you said, your work isn’t a get rich quick scheme, and that in itself is one of the reasons why you continually have success (one of the many reasons).
Thank you for being an inspiration.

I couldn’t care less how much you earn. Lots of people gets lots of views and followers generating low kevel content and appealing to the lowest common denominator. But if your content doesn’t justify my time then I won’t be a visitor. That has never been the case with WP Beginner

Thanks for this post. Many bloggers and website owners compare their stats with others’ (revenue, followers) and I realized that that’s not the end-all and be-all of having a website. It’s about giving help/giving back to others. To be honest, I turned to WPBeginner when I migrated from free WordPress to a self-hosted blog. Your generosity in giving tips and tricks helped me a lot. So super-thanks and keep on doing what you love.

Hi Syed.
Love your candidness. I’ve never liked those monthly income reports. Unsubscribed from a well known female marketer for spamming me with her income reports. No substance, just showing off trying to impress me.
Anyhow, looks like these 4 domain names are taken:-
8FigureBlog.com
EightFigureBlog.com
EightFigureBlogger.com
8FigureBlogger.com
Probably worth quite a bit to someone who earns $10M a year considering there won’t be that many who ever get to achieve those figures from blogging alone.
Editorial Staff says
Thanks for leaving a comment Steve, and I appreciate your support.
Those are neat domains, and I hope those who own it don’t use it to scam others.

Carolyn Garcia says
Hi Syed, This is Carolyn Garcia, I wanted to leave a comment because I truly believe in what you mentioned above, It should not matter what a person makes from their business 100% true, I am still a newbee blogger I have had my website since Dec 2017 Jan 2018 and still I haven’t made up any blog pages or content. Why because I have tons of notes, but still not understanding yet enough to launch jaydeandjewelsbaking.com I feel I need more to my site including above. Besides the point of my site, I have been offered many times to buy from different sites. Being a newbee I don’t have that kind of money to buy this one or that one, but yes I agree you have to watch for scams. I agree with you all the way, Thanks Sincerely Carolyn Garcia
Editorial Staff says
Hey Carolyn,
I too sometimes get caught up with the curse of perfection. In my opinion, it’s best to just launch the blog and improve as you go along with reader’s feedback.
All the best in your journey

Editorial Staff says
I’m sorry if that came off to you as bragging. That’s not my intention. I shared that with my friends and family on Instagram, and it was the only picture since I got that car.
In my opinion, I’d be bragging if I was taking a vain picture of myself in that car every day.

Right way to put it. I am 2 months old in to blogging, aspires to be a publisher. Acquired couple of blogs and just starting. But there is very less genuinity in what I have seen till now whether it is flippa, or other platforms. Many so called bloggers are not actually bloggers but gold diggers, some are even con artists trying to manipulate beginners and sell them stuff of little value. On the other side, it is Good to know couple.of good people people like syed working for the over all betterment. I am sure that the more I know, the more I will find people helping others.

Hey come on now, not need for this bait-click level title and post.
If you do not want to tell your income (which IS valuable because it gives an idea of whether blogging, etc is WORTH IT financially) then re title the post as ”Why I will not state my income publicly”.

Hi Sean,
Thanks for leaving a comment. I did give a pretty clear idea of the WPBeginner income by sharing the range, and I hope that leaves no doubt in anyone’s mind that blogging can be a very successful venture.

The next time someone asks you what you make, tell them, ”Not enough for all the work I do.” and then ask then to send you their W2 and 1099 forms.
What difference does it make to your users what you make? You provide a service that the market has found valuable. When they don’t find it valuable anymore they don’t have to purchase from you.
Of all the questions you have to deal with to provide excellent service on your products, asking what you make is nuts!
Keep doing the great work you do!

richard hickman says
I’m not interested in the amount of revenue, but it is important to know what generates your revenue. As it comes, in part at least, from your plug-ins etc. then that flavours the value of some of your recommendations. As long as the plugins do what’s on the label, and satisfy essential security and integrity then there isn’t a major concern there for me. From your post, It does sound as if you might be a little embarrassed by your revenues though.
Whatever you do, please don’t stop enjoying what you and your team do.
Editorial Staff says
Hi Richard,
I’m definitely not embarrassed by my revenues, and definitely love what we do here at WPBeginner. We have an amazing team and we love serving our awesome community of users.
I would say though that I do not like to bring attention to my revenues and finances for a variety of reasons including security for my family.

Excellent article! I’ve recommended WPBeginner to many budding bloggers, and this article solidifies my reasoning. I appreciate your commitment to your values.
It is so easy in the blogging space to get discouraged when numbers are the bottom line. I’ve found myself there many times as a very small-time blogger. But my purpose behind blogging becomes so much clearer when I recalibrate my focus on what I love — inspiring and helping people.
If we can all keep our focus where it belongs, the business part of blogging will grow so much more naturally. But I confess, it’s hard not to get distracted in the comparison game.
Thank you so much for the gentle reminder to stay in my lane, do what I love, and work hard toward my goal.
Keep up the great work!!

Thanks Katie. Every word you just said is so true. I’ve found the exact same in my journey as well.

I am a Nigerian and I follow wpbeginner regularly. Some few days ago, the question crossed my mind, ”How much does Wpbeginner earn? ”, given the fact that I am struggling to monetize my own blog. I must say your closing statement has encapsulated everything. How much you earn in value doesn’t matter. It will only cause unhappiness, worry and maybe jealousy if I find out. What matters most, is me utilising the resources you have provided to grow my own blog.
Thanks for the good work. Keep it up. I love the Wpbeginner team and I hopeto meet u guys someday.
