A blogger is someone who owns a blog, writes and publishes articles on it.
Nigeria has a thriving blogging community, with millions of Nigerians reading and writing blogs on a daily basis.
Some of the richest bloggers in Nigeria have made their fortunes through a combination of ad networks, affiliate marketing, and selling their own products and services.
Blogging in Nigeria is no more new.
With the success story of the likes of Linda Ikeji, one of the country’s richest female bloggers, many are joining the bandwagon.
However, only a few top bloggers that are popular in the country can be said to be successful in the blogosphere and their net worth.
Sometimes, it is difficult trying to rank Nigerian bloggers as many have side hustles that are not linked to their names while some of their blogs also do not appeal to the Nigerian audience and as such, people don’t even know of such popular websites.
These bloggers have achieved success in a variety of niches, including entertainment, business, technology, and lifestyle.
They have all built large audiences and monetized their blogs effectively.
