The different ways to earn money with his blog
dimanche 26 juin 2011
This is the ultimate taboo in the French blogosphere. Yet this concerns the majority of bloggers. Advertising is pervasive in blogs (apart from a few exceptions), yet all methods of making money is not the same.
Far be it from me to draw a comprehensive picture of the different boards. However, I will mention those I know and like to share my experience ...
What should we expect?
First, keep in mind that a blog is not live. Apart from some well-known personalities, the overwhelming majority of bloggers is not able to generate revenue. Moreover, the key word here is the variability. Gains are often disparate from one month to another. You must see it as a plus, a way to make ends meet month, the icing on the cake ...
Advertising for or against?
I will intentionally avoid the subject in this article because I do not want to fall into the irrelevant. However, I will not fail to give my opinion on the issue in a future article ...
• Google Adsense
This is the most currently used to make money. The image of Google helping greatly to this success. For it is certainly not the authority that pays best. The floor payment is $ 100, and it may take a long time to reach it.
But the ads are relatively unobtrusive and easily adaptable to the design of the site.
This is especially useful for blogs generate a lot of page views. For others, there are only crumbs ...

• Sponsored Links
Several boards have specialized in this sector which can, if does well, generate revenue. Include TLA, American governance has become a leader in this sector. The selective admission is harsh, and even after, it takes months to see a successful outcome. Eager not to. That said, there is an affiliate program that generates $ 25 for every new registrant.
AD42 can be a good solution for blogs with little traffic. The undeniable advantage of this solution is that you decide for yourself the price of your ad space. But here too it takes a while because it is for advertisers to come to you to control advertising.
Finally, LinkLift also allows you to sell links. I have not been able to form an opinion about it, but I will not hesitate to get back to you if it's worth it.
• Articles advertorials
I think this is what pays the most. These are items that you are controlled by advertisers and for which you paid. You have total freedom of expression, you give your review a product, or you are commenting on the launch of a novelty. This requires being part of a control that arises as an intermediary between you and such advertiser. Blogrider, a subsidiary of ADRID, governance seems to be the most serious and best known.
Moreover, it is always more interesting to make money by blogging rather than displaying the crude advertising. It is still necessary to report the color (for example by posting a disclaimer at the end of the article) to avoid confusion in the minds of your readers.
Note that you Bloggerwave is governed by paying $ 10 articles.
• BlogBang
This advertising allows you to add advertisements in videos. These vignettes that open a small video player when passing the mouse over it. What is interesting is that you control the ads displayed, they are sufficiently varied.
This board is very young (launched in early July) and should have a little more perspective to get an exact idea of his interest.

• Zlio
This is a site that allows you to make an online store. So you ask an intermediary between buyer and supplier. A commission is paid to you for any purchase made from your online store. Note that Zlio also offers to pay you to click, but of course, is much less attractive.

figures
That's what I use to CECIDE. To give you an idea, revenues are generated by 75% Sponsored articles in Google Adsense 18%, 4% via BlogBang (which I no longer use, by the way) and for the moment less than 3% from the sale of bonds.
So you see, what earns the most is sponsored items, yet it is also what is the most discreet, as it constitutes only 0.8% of all of my articles.
in conclusion
So far, in France, only a handful of bloggers are able to generate income real consequences. At some point to have ceased trading and have done their job. By handful I mean less than ten. So it is quite unrealistic to expect anything but a little pocket money.
What is important to me, is finding a happy medium. Your readers do not come to your blog to contemplate its advertising, but to read what you write. So take care not to turn your blog into Christmas tree, all that you do two per month. It would be nice too stupid.
The most effective solution lies in my opinion in articles sponsored (or advertorials). He must then get noticed by advertising. This is why there is not 36 solutions, we must endeavor to keep a blog of quality. And a quality blog is a blog where we write primarily for pleasure, without seeking at all costs to earn money or to become "influential." This will be the conclusion of this article. Everything comes to those who wait ...
