How Much Money Are We Making from Our News Blog?
Earning from Indian News Blog in 2025? yes, we are making money from our blog. But if you’re running a news blog, especially in India, the income is a bit less compared to other types of blogs.
If you’re writing news content in English or targeting US traffic, you’ll earn more because their RPM (revenue per 1000 views) is higher. But for us, most of the visitors are from India, and mainly from Google Discover, which usually gives lower earnings.
Earning from Indian News Blog in 2025?
Today is 2nd April and we’ve started using Google Ad Manager (AdX) instead of just using AdSense. We noticed that Ad Manager gives better CPM (cost per 1000 views), so we made the switch.
Here’s what the earnings look like:
- From 1st March to now, we earned around ₹21,000
- From 15th March, when we added Ad Manager, we earned about ₹21,600
So, Ad Manager is working better even in fewer days.
How Was It Before with AdSense?
Before using Ad Manager, we used AdSense. That time, traffic was a bit low. In those 15 days, we made around $44 (₹3,600).
If we combine both, we made about $300 (~₹25,000) from this one blog last month. And this is part-time work!
Let’s Talk About Traffic
In the last 28 days, here’s our traffic:
- 24,000 users came from Google Search
- 4,00,000+ users came from Google Discover
So, in total, we got around 4.5 lakh page views, and earned $300.
That’s not bad at all, considering we’ve just started using Ad Manager and haven’t fully optimized everything yet.
How Much Can We Earn in the Future?
Once we do proper optimization, get sponsorships, post guest articles, and use more ad networks – we can easily earn $1000+ per month with this much traffic.
Right now, we’re getting around $3-4 CPM, but with better ads and traffic, it can go up to $7-8. That means 3x more income with the same traffic.
One Important Tip
If you have one blog that’s working well, don’t stop there. Start another one after the first one becomes stable. Don’t start everything at once – grow one blog first, understand how things work, then launch the second one using the same formula.
Our Future Plan
Now we’re investing in branding – we’re going to start posting on Instagram, Facebook, and YouTube too. We want to grow this into a proper media company.
