All you need just a commitment, a little vision and good monetization. Now, let’s take a look on how you can make money using blog and turn it into something that will actually benefit your bank account. Excited isn’t it?? Here we go..
in this part, I only write about a CPC Ad Networks, later on the next part.. I’ll write and make it series about CPA and Affiliate Networks, Text Links, and Alternatives way.
CPC Ad Networks
1. AdSense
Google AdSense as far as I know, is probably the best known and most widely used way of monetizing a blog., offers ads relevant to your content from a large number of trusted advertisers, it is very simple to setup (at least for most people have testimony for this) ,pays about 60% of the click to you and pays out reliably. Sounds great doesn’t it? Ouw yeah..Well, AdSense does have some downsides. You can be ‘Smartpriced’ and your revenue per click can drop dramatically overnight. As well as this, there is the possibility that your readers have become AdSense-blind, having been exposed to similar ads on other sites they frequent. But if you want to monetize a very niche-oriented blog, AdSense would be right up there at the top of my list of revenue generators.
2. Chitika
Chitika is a new slant on CPC that has really taken off in the last year. Basically Chitika will contextually pick a product and display a price, image and short description. Payout is reliable and can be sent straight to your PayPal account, something which is sure to attract many. While there have been varying tales of success and woeful performance, Chitika is most suited to commercial blogs. If you blog on a topic such as iPods, PSP, gaming, electrical accessories you will more than likely find Chitika generates a good revenue stream. But the one single benefit offered by Chitika is that it is AdSense-compatible. When you generate your code in the Chitika admin panel, simply turn off the contextual mode and enter a string of keywords such as ‘ipod’ or ’sony vaio’. Chitika will then serve ads based on your keywords. There are numerous plugins available that will automatically insert a keyword string based on your title tag, making this a very worthwhile program to sign up to.
3. YPN
For about last year Yahoo!! opened their contextual ad network, called Yahoo! Publisher Network, to beta testers based in the USA only. It has since become the main alternative CPC network to Google AdSense. People who have used YPN have said that they earn more per click when compared to AdSense revenue generated from the same site. While this sounds encouraging, there have been serious issues with YPN in terms of targeting accuracy. Payment is also reliable, offering the choice of payment via check or direct deposit. However, if you run a very topic-specific blog, YPN would not be my first choice CPC program.
That’s for now, like I said before.. next.. we will talk about CPA and Affiliate Networks, Text Links, and Alternatives way.
