Blog Advertising is There Really Money in It!
Just about everyone online has a blog of their own been they write down their personal thoughts or experiences on a particular subject. But more and more people are getting into what is becoming known as blogertising or blog advertising. Many people are now choosing to sell space on their blog pages to business who wants to advertise. Most people have started doing this by using Google ads and making money that way. But many have found that you can do the same that Google is doing yourself. You can set your own price, and get paid on a monthly basis. You can also decide if you will create the ads as part of an advertising package deal or if you leave it to the person placing the ad on your blog page.
There really are no set rules when it comes to adding ad’s to your blog. Of course you may want to take the time and invest in your own website to have your blog on. Although there are many sites that allow advertising on free blog pages. How much money you will actually make from blog advertising depends on how much time you plan on spending on this project. It may be a good idea to hire some help. There is a company called Blogads that help advertisers find the blog that fits their product. Their website is http://www.blogads.com. But that is for those who know the business well and currently have very popular blogs.
The most important thing that you need before you can really sell space on your blog for advertisers is get your blog well known. If you have a blog for stay at home moms for example then you know that those who advertise on your blog pages should be someone who has products or services that stay at home moms really want. If you advertise a product that your readers are not really interested in then it would be a waste of money for the advertiser and you will definitely have a problem getting any repeat business. Another idea is to try and ask your readers what type of products they would be interested in. You can then take this information and show it to potential advertisers.
Remember you are going to have to sell your blog and really make it worth the advertiser’s time. You will have a lot of competition since there are so many blogs about various topics. There are probably even a lot of blogs that are similar to yours. Try doing a Google search to see exactly how many blogs you can find that are similar to yours. Then take a look at those blogs, and see what makes your blog stand out from the rest. If there is really nothing about your blog that stands out then you will need to change it so that it does. Remember the more unique your blog is the easier it will be for you to earn a profit with advertising. So the bottom line is that you can really make money by Blog advertising especially since it is still in its infancy. But you should be prepared to devote plenty of time and energy to this project.
