Six Ways to Make Money Online

There are 6 ways to make money online that you can use by blogging.  You could use these by themselves or in combination.  One may stand out more depending on what you want sell or blog about.

Ready?  Focus on this one word as you think about how you might apply one of these way to earn money online:  VALUE.  If you are not offering value, your reader will pass.

Blog Cloud
Donations – Without doubt the easiest.  Build audience and readership.   Ask for a donation using one of the two ways below.


Amazon and others have wish list.  So you can put a wish list from amazon on your site and suggest your reader buy something that is on your wish list.  Don’t undervalue and  put everything that you want on there.
Money – David Taylor daily q&a “buy me a cup of coffee” via pay pal.
Subscription Revenue –  Pay to be premium member or just a member.  Be part of what you are doing.  This could be for anything that offers value to your reader.

Contextual Ads – Ads that blend with content.  Google offer target text ads as do others.

Good thing about it is that it is easy to implement.  Instant gratification; instant cash.
Bad thing about it is that you have no control over the ad that may be about your competitors.  One click and your visitor is gone from your site.
Affiliate marketing.  In addition to putting ads on your site, put affiliate ads on your site and make even more money.  You affiliates could be ClickBank, Host Gator, or Aweber.  Who are you affiliated with?  What products do you like?

Direct Ad Sales – This is the most lucrative and the most difficult.  You need a large readership with lots of traffic to pull this off.   This is other people asking you to put their ads on your website.

Selling a product – Selling your product -  What are selling or making?  Is it bird houses, jewelry or what ever.

Again, my purpose is to introduce you to the 6 ways to make money online.  Blogging about your online business  does fits each one of these.  See my other post for more details on each of these ways to Blog For Cash.  But for now, I hope this overview helps you put things in perspective.
