Make money Selling Ad Spaces on your blog
A blog with a a good organic traffic and great content is sure to attract advertisers. They are constantly seeking new blogs with good traffic stats to buy ad space and promote their products or website. These ads are usually CPM based i.e, cost per thousand impressions. If you have a blog with over 1,000 pageviews, this option is for you. The pay rates range from $1 to $10/ 1000 pageviews - this could be even more depending on your blogs authority. Lets consider the average pageviews of your blog as 2,000 and an average pay rate of $2. You can earn $2 x 2 x 30days = $120/ad. If you sell three more ad spaces, you could easily earn 120 x 4 = $480/month.Adsense alternatives
There are hundreds of online advertising networks on Internet. The most preferred after adsense are Adbrite and Chitika. They both have higher pay rates as compared to any other network.
