How can I monetize my blog?

hi

1) Affiliate Marketing
Affiliate marketing is a type of performance-based marketing. As the blogger, you include links to a product or service offered through another business’s affiliate program.

If one of your visitors clicks on that link and purchases the good or service, you’ll receive a cut of the cost.

Google AdSense

1_Based on impressions: This depends on page views. For instance, for every 1,000 page views you get, you earn a set dollar amount.
2_Based on clicks: Regardless of page views, if a visitor clicks on the ad from your site, you’ll earn a certain cut of the ad revenue. This can range anywhere from $0.01 to a couple of dollars depending on the ad.

A website serving an average of 3 pages per visit, each with 2 ad units and an impression CPM of $1 would therefore earn $6 per 1000 visits.

Advertisers only pay when someone clicks an ad or watches for 30 seconds. This is why you can't tie your channel views to dollars.

If your video gets ten million views but nobody watches or click the ads, you don't make any money. This is how I'm able to make $1 per 25 views.

AdSense. The first way YouTubers make money, he says, is through ads. ... For every thousand impressions of the ad that is played per video, the Youtuber will get paid a certain amount of money.

Course and/or Services
1_Audience Business Masterclass (from Firepole Marketing)
2_Article Writing Masterclass (by Carol Tice and Linda Formichelli)
3_Social Media Training for Serious Marketers (from Market Motive)

These can range between one to five dollars.

4) Consulting
Consulting is another popular way to make money through your blog’s traffic. With these services, you charge a fee to give feedback to readers. For example, let’s say you blog about social media.

You could charge $75 for a one-hour Skype session where you discuss your client’s social media strategy. Along with the Skype call, you might send a full written report via email on how to improve that strategy.

5) Paid Reviews and/or Banner-ads

Banner ads

You can probably guess from the name how you monetize your blog from this method. You get paid for every click a visitor makes on these ads. You sign up to a provider and they give you a code for you to place on your site

This is how I'm able to make $1 per 25 views.

Paid reviews are when the business sends you their product and pays you to write a review about it, but you are not obligated to write a positive review.

Alternatively, some businesses will sponsor a specific post in exchange for a link back to their site. It is an ethical practice to disclose the sponsorship to your readers.

Cost per Mile advertising (CPM) is similar to PPC advertising, however instead of getting paid on a per-click basis, you get paid according to the number of impressions (page views) you get. This is worked out for every 1000 impressions that it has. For example, a website that gets 200,000 page views per month that displays a $1 CPM ad will generate you $200 a month!

Banner ads are just what they sound like. They’re ads you place in “banner” style, usually in your sidebar. The business sponsoring the ad will often pay you monthly to keep the ad up on your site.

You can monetize your blog by selling space on your website for advertisers to display a banner. This can be a very lucrative method as it allows you to cut out the middleman and charge what you want for other people to advertise on your site.

6) eBooks
Writing eBooks is a super popular way to start selling a unique product in your industry, and it’s ideal for pretty much any niche.

With so many self-publishing opportunities available, too, it’s easy to get your book published and ready to sell with major retailers like Amazon or directly on your site.

Can you monetize a free blog?
AdSense is compatible with free Blogger blogs and self-hosted WordPress blogs, but keep in mind that it won't work with a free WordPress blog (although you can monetize with WordAds if you have a custom domain).
