6 Ways to make money off your blog
August 20th, 2008 by Gareth | Filed under Blogging.
Every blogger is always willing to try new ways to monetize their blog, but no one likes trying something out and turns out it was rubbish. I’ve compiled a list of ways you can make money off your blog, nearly all of these ways are brilliant.
The only thing I dislike about some of these are they use Google Adsense and many people know I don’t like them, love the search engine though. Hopefully some of my suggestions might come in use for the beginners and the experienced bloggers.
1. Review Blog Posts
You can get paid very well for reviewing others websites on your blog. Only thing you might want to consider is having a high PR and if you don’t have that, then either an old blog or one with a lot of traffic.
This is really just common sense, you can make at least $10 to $20 per link a month, but its down to how high PR you have got.
3. Use PPC Systems
There are so many PPC systems, but only a few actually goes down well with blogs. I’m only gonna name the five that look nice on blogs.
Once you have built a lot of content on your blog, only then you can start putting on affiliates. The reason for this is because content is what gets you traffic and you can’t compete with competitors with just products. Here is a few of my favorite affiliate companies that you can make decent money from, thats if you do it correctly.
This awesome script gives you the ability to add 1,000’s off products in a click. Lays it out on your blog as if it is a store and does all the work for you, just sit back and watch the money pile up. Thats if you play your cards right.
Implement Google Adsense in your blog’s feed, only do this if your blog gets a lot of traffic to its feed. Otherwise its just a waste of time and space.




That is a really nice list, going to come in good use in the near future. *bookmarks*
just got feedburner ads set up there now
Hi, Gareth!
My name is Caren. I find your site http://www.garethboyd.com interesting!
I have a few good credit card websites that could be useful for your readers. They have many visitors, high Alexa rank and PR from 0 to 4 and one of them takes its place in the Google top 10 credit card sites.
I would like to buy a link at the homepage of your site or in a fresh post.
Please let me know if you are interested and how much you charge via email.
Thank you for your time,

Hmmm, haven’t heard of LoudLaunch or BloggersReview before, thanks for the info! I’m going to swign up and see how they compare to other Paid Review services.
