7 Creative Ways To Monetize Your Blog
48Obviously, I LOVE blogs, and all they stand for. I wish I could have started a blog 8 years ago, but alas, I would have been 7 years old. Anyways, there are a huge number of ways that you can monetize through your blog.
1. Free E-books.
Everyone loves e-books, especially when they are free. One of my favorite e-books is Authority Black Book, by Jack Humprhey. Give away 3 or 5 e-books at a time and you are building your email contact list.
2. Adsense
You can do many things with Adsense ads, they don't even have to look like ads. Pick the one row, 4 links text ads and you can put them right in your blog, and they relate DIRECTLY to what you blog about. Its very hard to not click on one of those when you know that it could really help you.
3. Build A Newsletter
People love to sign up for newsletters because they like to have information sent directly to them. And even better if it is personalized a bit, even if it has nothing to do with THEM at all.
4. Email Marketing
You can capture emails in many different ways including newsletters, subscriptions, e-books, and of course if someone just gives it to you. Do not make it one big ad though! If you believe in the products worth, then it will come out when you right about it.
5. Write Review Blogs
Focus your blog on a product two or three times a week. Write a great summary of why its great and the person you are writing to should buy it. Make sure that you drop in links of your own affiliation every once in a while. Remember, lots of people have a 45 day tracker. Even if they don't buy it that week, they might decide to later.
6. Submit Articles To Directorys
I feel no greater sense of pride then when I see someone that got smart and submitted an article with their own reviews and affiliate links to a directory that submits it to thousands of sources. Yet another way to spread yourself.
7. Make Your Own Products!
Write an e-book, or come out with a great website technique. And even better, make a free trial offer of what you have. Make the first however many days, or however many downloads free. This will get people to link to you, and if its not free anymore, they might buy it anyways.
There are literally thousands upon thousands of ideas that can help you monetize your blogs and start making your millions.

Article Announcer - this software allows you to automatically submit your articles to all the article directories, ezine owners and announcement lists.
Ezine Announcer - allows you to automatically submit all your articles to article directories (and your ezines to ezine directories). If you write articles regularly or have your own ezine this software is a great time saver.
This is interesting, I'll have to look into the directories some more.
