How To Monetize Your Blog Part 2

Please check out my blog at: http://jamesyoungvideomarketing.com

First lets look at the types of ads:

There are basically 2 kinds of ads:
PPC(pay per click) and affiliate links.
Pay per click ads works just like the name suggests, someone clicks on one, you get paid.
With affiliate links, you refer someone to an affiliate site, if they buy something, you get a percentage.

Whiners

As soon as you place any new ads on your blog, some of your readers are going to complain. What these people don't get, is that you put a lot of time and effort into making your blog a valuable resource.

Layout

I believe in putting down a number of ads. But and this is a big but, the ads need to fit into the style of your blog. You don't want your blog to end up looking like the Frankenstein monster.

Ads - Text VS Images VS Animation

I frequently hear the question: How should I monetize my blog, with text or image ads? The good thing about images is that they attract the readers attention. My recommendation is to use both, but use text ads more heavily than picture ones.
Animated ads are better than image ads at attracting attention, but there are fewer advertisers using them.

The need for Paypal

If you are going to do business online, you will absolutely need Paypal.

I really like Adbrite. I have used Adsense and Bidvertiser, but I know that Adbrite works best for me. I was blocked by adsense without reason and with Bidvertiser I had sites that where very slow and also no clicks.
