Monetize your Blog
By admin | November 12, 2008
I gave you some tips on how to make money from your blog a couple of days ago so here’s a few more
1. Hyperlink Keywords
This is a neat way of making some affiiate income and works in a similar way to banners. If you hyperlink a keyword or phrase within your blog post, to an affiliate page or sales letter, where a product is being promoted, then you may make some sales that way. If you can upload pictures and hyperlink those back to the product as well.Its more technical but as you learn more you will find it possible to do this.
Have a look at Clickbank or Commission Junction for affiliate products
2. Sell Advertising Space
This is a possibility if you have an established blog with good volumes of traffic but for the new blogger, its not going to be possible. It is something to look at when you get into that position though. This leads me on to number
3 Build a list
If you add an opt in or sign up form onto your pages in your blog, you can capture email names and addresses. You must give good content in return for that though. I have a short email course and will be giving a free ebook to my subscribers. My intention is to give videos, newsletters and as much free iinformation as I can, without breaching copyright!
Opt in pages can be set up though your autoresponder (again more on that later and it will be something I cover in my free ebook).They capture the email name and address and that list can be the start of a beautiful relationship. My intention is to build a list of like minded people,give them as much info as possible and if I find or build products that they might like, then all the better. The point of building a list is to have a targeted audience that might be willing to look at the products you recommend and buy them!
Anyway, a list is important. I would love you to join mine,have a look to the right of this page, or there is a separate page, called freebies that you might want to have a look at.
Til next time
