Blogging has been the latest
trend to earn money online these days. Bloggers like Jonh Chow and Alex Tew are
earning 5 to 6 figure income in a month with their blogs. To fill up the
pockets with such huge bucks it needs hard work, consistency, quality readers
and monetizing.
Getting quality readers and
monetizing blogs are one of the daunting tasks that most bloggers face. Being a
thought leader in your niche and giving your readers unique and informative
articles might bring you some quality visitors. Monetizing is an important part
in blogging where you earn money from your blog. There are several ways to earn
money from your blog on the internet. That's why I decided to create a list of
101 ways to earn money from blogs.
PPC
Advertising Networks
A method of online commercial
revenue genration whereby a website publisher earns payment whenenver a website
user clicks on a designated link. Google AdSense is the most popular option
under this category, but there are also others. Basically you need to sign up
with the network and paste some code snippets on your website. The network will
then serve contextual ads (either text or images) relevant to your website, and
you will earn a certain amount of money for every click.

CPM
Advertising Networks
CPM advertising networks behave
pretty much as PPC networks, except that you get paid according to the number
of impressions (i.e., page views) that the ads displayed on your site will
generate. CPM stands for Cost per Mille, and it refers to the cost for 1,000
impressions. A blog that generates 100,000 page views monthly displaying an
advertising banner with a $1 CPM, therefore, will earn $100 monthly.

Direct
Product Sales
Selling your own advertising
space is one of the most lucrative monetization methods. First and foremost
because it enables you to cut out the middleman commissions. The downside of
direct banner advertising is that you need to have a big audience to get
qualified advertisers, and you will need to spend time managing the sales
process.
25. Your
advertisers should be ones that your readers will genuinely be interested in.
Solicit ads from major, respected players in your industry for the best
results.
26. Make
it easy for advertisers to buy from you. Create a kit that includes your rates,
ad policies, demographics, traffic, testimonials and contact information.
27. To get
things started, seek out competitive companies in your niche and give them free
ads for a specific amount of time. This will get other companies interested in
advertising with you.
