How Can I Make Money Online With My BlogMaking money online with your blog is the goal of tens of thousands if not millions of bloggers around the world.  I have read statistics that 2 new blogs are started every minute of the day, every day of the year. 

Sadly most of these will fail.  The blog owner will grow weary of blogging, they are chasing the lure of easy money and they think blogging is easy.  If you take your blogging seriously then you already know that it isn’t easy at all.  I would suspect that for every 2 blogs that start every minute of the day, two more quit at the same time.

This article series is going to discuss the many ways to make money online with your blog in each article.  We will discuss different tactics or methods of generating revenue.  In all cases you will need a basic understanding of blogs and technology in general but otherwise the articles will be written with the “noobs” in mind.

I will share which programs I use and what my success or failure has been when applicable.

Advertising

The first method we will discuss to make money with your blog is simply advertising.  If your blog generates even a reasonable amount of daily traffic then you can effectively monetize it by selling adspace.  You only have to search around a few blogs to find that most blogs are attempting to take advantage of this revenue generating feature. 

The trick to advertising effectively is to experiment.  Try different campaigns, positioning, banner colors, banner creatives etc and measure you results.  Some types of ads will produce better than others and this is critical to find what works best with the theme of your blog.

In future articles we can discuss ad placement strategy but if you take ONE thing from this article, take this….no matter what you read, there is no substitute for experimentation.  All sites are different, readers are different, ads are different.  Test which works best for you.

If you are interested I have included some of the more popular ad companies out there in the blogosphere.  There are hundreds of them but these are some of my favorites.  Check these out and find out what works for you.
