Usually you want to blog on the topics that excite you, because more often than not that will be your best writing. On the other hand, creating posts designed for high profit also works. Say you hate action TV shows, but actions shows are the rave. What do you do? It's still up to you, but in the end you can honestly do this for pay and do this for fun. If it's like pulling teeth, maybe you should ask someone else to do it (a guest blogger).
TV Show Reviewing:
Since TV shows were mentioned, let's go over blogging on them. This can mean writing blog posts on new characters in the shows, upcoming seasons being released on DVDs, certain genres of TV shows like action or horror, or even a new writer's strike. TV show reviewing is often the most lucrative field for entertainment blogging; few hate TV, many are hooked on it.
Other Reviewing:
Of course, entertainment sites like Salon and IGN also focus on books, anime, comics, and movies. Reviews take a special kind of skill to write, however, and doing them solely on your entertainment blog is a risk. Write on multiple subjects, and see what catches reader's interests.
Commentary:
Commentating on the latest stories in Hollywood is also quite lucrative. This isn't so much news, but offering what a newspaper opinion column does. News means ?Just the Facts? while commentary lets you go into more personal experience with series. Say you're in love with science fiction shows; ?Battlestar Galactica? and ?Star Trek? are addictions to you. You can tap this vein of interest to find similar fans across the world. You can write opinion pieces like ?10 Reasons Science Fiction Shows are Hot!? or ?Why the Sci-Fi Channel is Working Miracles!?
Hot News:
One major aspect of all entertainment blogging is staying informed on not only what happened yesterday but what happened today. New TV series, new bestselling books from names like Stephen King or Dean Koontz, an action star like Will Smith or Bruce Willis signing up for the latest action film trilogy ? these are all strong topics. You can find much of this out by simply opening up the entertainment section of a major newspaper, while also using the net for what it's meant for.
Make Money Blogging?How?
So how do you make money blogging with entertainment blogging? Often the most lucrative way to make money is simple ad sales; there are thousands of potential markets, from selling ad space for new movies to taking small commissions from items you've reviewed.
