Monetize Your Blog

This is what you have been waiting for!

How to make money, with no money!

As discussed earlier, you add Google Adsense to your blog.
If you haven't done so already, go to www.Google.com/adsense and create an adsense account. Once you have done that, login to your blogger account, and go into Layout.
Once in layout, add a Gadget. Pick Google Adsense.

Place Google Adsense at the TOP LEFT and Bottom of the page, much like on this blog.
Changing colors, sizes and layout is up to you.

Now, you can also Monetize in other ways such as Amazon.com


Becoming an Amazon Associate is free.
It doesn't cost you anything, and you make money from them by selling products on their site.

For Example: If you are doing a blog on cooking, you can link to a specific cookbook, kitchen untensil, or appliance and place the banner on your blog.
When someone clicks on that banner or link, and purchases that item, you receive a commission. This holds true for an affiliate program.

How would you use the banner or link within your blog?

If today I am writing a blog post about Italian Recipes, I might link to an Italian Cook Book on Amazon within that post.

Of if I am writing about a kitchen utensil that works real well, then I would link to that item. Write a review of that item and place the link or banner on that page.

There are other places you can become an affiliate for that you can do the same exact thing as you did with Amazon.

I will include a list of links in a post called Affiliate Programs that you can join that can help you monetize your blog other peoples products.

The whole concept is to write about something, then match up a related affiliate product with it, then post that item. Or write a review about that product.
