I would sell it privately, and only place it on your site if you actually recommend it. The quality of the things you link to helps Google rank and judge you.

Lastly, most people that want text links are looking to capitalize on your page rank, and I would recommend thinking about that and figuring out the risk to value ratio on a proposition like that.

So how do I get this guy’s ads on my site?

Scratchback is good for pretty much any blog, and is basically javascripted text link ads, and shouldn’t effect Google rankings.

Also, you could look at an affiliate program as well.

Direct ad sales have always been my biggest earner. Contact that advertisers on your competition and give them competitive rates for ad space.

Oliver Chesler – I consider Google AdSense to be very trial and error. English people read from left to right, and as such, the further from the left hand side your ad is, the less likely it will be noticed.

Also, the closer the ad is with regards to the content, the more likely it will be clicked.

At the bottom of your content, you have a border around your Google ad, and as such, it stands out rather than blends in as it should.

I have had millions of hours of frustration with Google AdSense.

Karen – If you have something great, go to bloggers and let them know. Start a contest or promotion, or tap into social media by creating content that a site like Digg, StumbleUpon or Reddit would enjoy.

Joseph – Other than what I have mentioned above, I would suggest building your traffic more. Other than that, memberships, products, and other ways to capitalize on your user base, without spamming them is always good.

I would suggest building up a mailing list where you give extra content to them, and also promote paid e-book products that they might enjoy.

You will make more from secondary projects connected to the blog than the blog itself, most likely.

The smartest thing you can do is to be creative as monetization, especially as you make more and more money, isn’t a step by step type thing.

I had 11,000 visitors last month and I work at building traffic all the time. What can I do to make income from my blog.

So, remember to post contents regularly to your blog. Alright?

We are a new website due to launch at the end of April this year. We are doing lots of blogging to try and get traffic to our holding page but it would be good to know how of any companies that write articles about our new site. Obviously being new, we cant yet afford the crazy fees to advertise on the bigger websites.

Any help would be great!

You could try the bigger names like Azoogle, Pepperjam Network, Commission Junction, but again, I think your location is going to be difficult to work around. What type of products are you looking to work with? That might help fine tune your opportunities and choices.

Also, for a simple payment, most companies can use Paypal, so if you haven’t signed up for an account with them, I’d highly recommend it. Almost everything I do goes through paypal, and as such, it makes it easy to track my online earnings and expenses.

David – Good article, but its very general and very broad. I am hoping to help with very specific questions here. :)

I found a great article on the web that list out some great ways to advertise http://www.omnistaretools.com/best-ways-to-advertise-your-website.htm

I have used a lot of the ideals in this article and a few have worked great.

Besides AdSense, what affiliate program do you indicate to Brasilian bloggers, regarding to advertises in portuguese and a simple payment procedure?

Thanks
