Internet Marketing: How to Monetize Your Blog

There are lots of ways to monetize your blog, and all of them are quite simple. Google offers you perhaps the simplest that is available on your blogger.com blog. At the bottom of your dashboard (when you sign in to your blog), there is a section labeled Tools and Resources and you would choose the AdSense hyperlink to sign up for free advertising to display on your site. You will earn a few cents to a few dollars for ads that are clicked on from your blog. A word of caution: NEVER click on your own ads or have somebody else click on them like crazy because Google could ban you … FOR LIFE! Just put them on there and if people are interested, they will click. I know that I sometimes will see something on a site that interests me and click. Heck, that it how I got started in the whole internet marketing venture.

You don’t have to use Google if you don’t want to. Simply do an Internet search for PPC (pay per click) advertising and your site may qualify for them. Currently enough money is made from the advertising to pay for my internet connection. Just don’t make your blog a virtual marketplace for advertising: You want to provide information for your visitors first. Revenue comes later.

Have a GREAT day!!
