Monetization for your blog

It took me a long time to write this next post on this blogging series.

Monetization for blogging is one of the most important thing to do while you want to make money by blogging or run a popular blog like this one. What is the purpose of having a popular blog like the google blog. Its for corporation to convey their message and updates to their customers. We aren’t speaking about that kinda blogs we are speaking about make money blogs. This can be done by placing adsense ads or joining an affiliate network.

Pay-per-click ads from adsense,yahoo advertiser network or adbrite are all customizable and the first thing to do when you monetize is that to make an ad not look like an ad. It means choosing the ad colors to blend with the site template. Wordpress has plugins that do this for you. Blogger has integrated it for you in their site template. So there is no big deal in taking ads to your blogs. But the placement of the ads and the colors do matter a lot when you want to make money out of a blog. I make money out of this blog just by doing the same.

What if you do not get visitors after having blended the ads with the site template. Its waste of time and efforts that you’ve made. Most of all it would not bring you any money if you don’t have visitors. If you could spend some money you can drive in traffic by adwords program or buy some ads on any adbrite advertiser site and display your ads for a week or month. Adwords is preferable because it brings you targeted traffic to your place which brings only interested people and thereby the chance of them coming back is increased.
