Everyone says “start a blog” but very few show you how to turn it into actual money in your Opay or Palmpay account. This post is the complete 2026 roadmap for Nigerians who want blogging to stop being a hobby and become a serious small business.

Why 2025 is the Best Year Ever to Start a Profitable Blog in Nigeria

  • Over 70 million Nigerians are now online daily
  • Google AdSense now pays Nigerian publishers in dollars straight to bank accounts (no more PayPal stress)
  • Companies are paying ₦150,000–₦800,000 for one sponsored post
  • Affiliate marketing (selling other people’s products) now works perfectly with Flutterwave and Paystack links

Real Proof That Ordinary Nigerians Are Cashing Out from Blogging Right Now

Google itself still runs one of the most powerful blogs in the world on Blogspot — googleblog.blogspot.com. If Google trusts Blogspot in 2025 to announce Gemini updates and Android features to billions of people, then you can definitely use it to build a money-making business.

Step-by-Step: How to Start Your Money-Making Blog This Week

  1. Choose a hot Nigerian niche (examples that pay fast in 2025):
    • Business & side hustles ← this is what I do on Small Business 247
    • Tech & gadgets
    • Fashion & beauty
    • Education/JAMB-WAEC
    • Crypto & betting tips
  2. Create the blog for FREE
    Go to blogger.com → sign in with Gmail → click “Create New Blog” → choose Blogspot address.
    Google’s own official blog is still on Blogspot (see it here), so you’re in good company.
  3. Post 15–20 high-quality articles in the first 30 days
    Use topics people are already searching for. Example titles that bring traffic instantly:
    • “50 Businesses You Can Start with ₦200k in Lagos 2025”
    • “How to Get Tony Elumelu $5000 Grant This Year”
  4. Monetize from week 4
    • Google AdSense (₦200–₦800 per 1,000 visitors)
    • Sponsored posts (₦100k–₦800k per post once you have traffic)
    • Affiliate marketing – promote Jumia, Konga, Bet9ja, Expertnaire, etc.
