From ₦0 to ₦100k – My Blogging Side Hustle Plan

Can you really make money from blogging in Nigeria in 2025? Yes — but not overnight. This post shows you how I plan to grow CareerHints from zero income to ₦100,000 and beyond using consistency, content, and creativity.

1. Choose a Focus That Pays

I chose the niche: Career + Side Hustles + Smart Money.
Why? Because these attract people who are willing to invest in their growth — and companies that advertise to them.

2. Commit to Weekly Posting

I'm posting 2 new articles per week — covering tips, tools, and guides that solve real problems for job seekers and hustlers.

3. Monetize in Phases

- Phase 1: Google AdSense (after first 5–6 posts + About/Policy pages)
- Phase 2: Affiliate links (Jumia, ALX, CV tools)
- Phase 3: Sell digital products (CV templates, e-books)
- Phase 4: Sponsored posts/collaborations

4. Drive Traffic Free

I'll share on:
- WhatsApp Status
- Facebook job groups
- LinkedIn
- Email newsletter (later)
- Comments on related blogs

5. Track Progress

Using Google Analytics + a simple Excel sheet to track:
- Traffic
- Income
- Most-read posts
- Click-through rates

Wrap-Up

Blogging is slow but powerful. I’m building CareerHints one reader, one article, one hustle tip at a time. Let’s grow it together.
