No website monetization, a journey. It is unrealistic to expect that you can change one on your website and it is going to provide you the best
Possible results
are the best way to monetize a blog, focus on helping people
As an example, let's use a photography blog. People see the blog because they want to be a better photographer. Someone will get to visit this blog, you will have to pay with their lessons, inspiration, inspiration and so on. Now, when you apply it to monetize a website. A reader wants to improve their photography in the best way, whether with good equipment or with even more training, both ways, have the opportunity to earn money.
If readers want better cameras or better equipment, you can promote other companies products and get a commission.
If the reader wants better training or more advanced training, then you can promote other blogger's products, or you can create and sell yourself.
I often think that the best websites are such that you can not see how they make money. And by this, I mean, you can see a visible advertisement. The monetization must not be obvious, in fact, it never changes when a person does not know about it.
Real quick, I'll tell you why we do not sell ads:
Continuous Add / Edit / Delete Advertisers are often ugly and take away from user experience They can reduce your search engine ranking and increase bounce rate Most important ... It makes us less money!
Advertising sales, for us, it is not worth it.
Over the years, we've tried dozens of ways to make money and earn money from our experience, from a blog, fall into two categories.
Below, I will give you a break in both strategies, how we use them here with the details of the IncomeDiary

Making money from affiliate marketing
and…
Making money from selling our own products.
How to Monetize a Blog With Affiliate Marketing
Finding Affiliate Products To Promote
It is easy to find physical products such as keeping photography themes, cameras, and equipment such as promotional products. Almost all photography related products are available in Amazon, and Amazon has its own affiliate network called Amazon Associates. This means that Amazon sells their products to you and you get a commission to do this.
If I want to promote it as an affiliate, I usually visit their website and see to start by scrolling down. I can see a link for an affiliate page. If I do not see one, then I google their website name affiliate . If something does not come up, which is at least, quite rare in my experience, I just have to move and find something else.
To get inspiration for promotion, you can look at a competitive website and see what products they are promoting or you can try an affiliate market such as commission junctions that are integrated with their services to more than 1000 organizations.
Promoting Affiliate Products On Your Blog
This is a place where many people go wrong, they only add affiliate offers to their blog and cross their fingers, hoping someone will buy from them. There are so many, more than that!
To get started, if there is already traffic, I would recommend that you can update any of your website links with affiliate links.
What we did, we tracked our outgoing links with Google Analytics, and then we can see which connections have been received with the highest click and priority was given from there. This one changes our earnings by approximately $ 50,000 a year to increase.
Promoting Products You Use
It works because people can see you actively using the service or product. For example, with Income Diary, I use my hosting company, domain registrar and blog theme. Again using the Photography niche as an example, you can recommend using cameras, lenses, camera bags, memory cards and so on.
Often you go to a blog and you learn something from the authors. It is simply normal that you want to copy their success to what they are doing.
"I use this, so, you should"
Promoting Recommended eBooks
The two things that I found really good for us - the first 'offer box' is the bottom
In the past, I used the banner provided by affiliate managers and designed some really nonsense boxes but this simple, with a clear stop, green stop mark transforms the max.
Perhaps it shows better content, then an advertisement.
I want to promote two offers in boxes, one low price and a higher price. Fortunately for my high priced offer above, I was able to secure $ 1 trials and as a result the transformation grew even more. (Top Tip: If you are introducing a higher price offer - try and get people interested in receiving a step to get special rates or initial offers.)
The second thing that really adds a text ad to the top of my list is the best converted, such as our top earning blogger post. I'm adding a link to guys, "Want to follow their footsteps? Check out this product". It works because the reader is very inspired and inspired by reading the post and wants to see himself in this list one day.
Comparison and Resources Page
These pages are usually used to strengthen the recommendations I have already made. People like choice but reality, usually, are better than a product rest.
When you keep this product against competitive products, it simply shows how good it is and it should give your reader the confidence to move forward and to reassure. If they do not recommend you and do not choose a different product, well, this is an affiliate link, so you will earn money.
You can see an example of this on creating a website page.
Special Note: It is OK to compare something that you will not earn any commission - if you are made pure and trust, which should be your audience, then your visitors, especially your 'Internet Marketing aware' visitors will appreciate your 'neutral' approach.
Publishing content that mentions affiliate products
It has started to make me more and more money as I examined various affiliate offers. There are three main types of blog posts that give me money. They interview, guide and review.
I will indicate each of the following features:
Earn Money From Interviews:
The best way to earn money by promoting products with the interview is to prepare the interview for out as one product is introduced. Why? Well, the product is released now, no one has bought it, and so you increased your disagreement to sell.
Not only this, anyone interested in the product, will look for more information on Google and social media, and if your posts are coming, they will come to your site and hope you'll get it.
I recommend you to interview on the phone (I use Skype) and call records and get it transcribed. You then add the call to your site as an MP3 / podcast and instead add transcription to those who listen to listen. (Transcription also gives you valuable search engine content). While interviewing, you can review interview products - ask them questions - and then at the end of the interview you can review your own mini review and why viewers want to buy it
Typically your interview will simply touch the interviewing techniques normally will be touched but your audience / reader done properly will be left wanting it when you are promoting the product of the interview as a way to learn more from your followers. Depending on the interview and the product, you can easily carry out dozens of sales and continuous future sales, which the future readers can find out on the interview.
Making money from publishing guide
Other techniques I use, 'how' or guide post production - just like this one
You really help your readers and as well as giving you away great content that promotes affiliate products. Visitors can use the products so they can decide on their behalf or not, and you are not promoting any tribal products to those who give you notice because you are helping them for free.
Very important: It is very important - good content / time post how to take time to take time. Despite some gestures, there is no such thing as free money - you need to do your work to provide real value to your readers - do this and follow the money through affiliate sales. So often I create 'half-effort' for the production of bloggers - obviously if you do what you are going to do, do not get annoyed. Readers can tell if you know what you are talking about and if you are enthusiastic about it or not.
Make money from post reviews
You may post a partial review of almost every post if you are doing it correctly. Here's an essential bit - someone can not pay any attention to your review post unless they respect you, trust you, have a contact with you. In other words they believe you can be trusted. As mentioned in the previous post, these reasons such as ABOUT pages and pages as my story page are so important.
To build that trust and rapport you must first provide good content, valuable content. So often readers tell me that they can not believe how much content I provide free - if you start getting comments like this, you're doing it right. Build relationships and your recommendation will be a great opportunity to be sold.

Using Email Marketing To Drive Traffic To Increase Affiliate Sales
Email marketing is often thought of as a monetizing strategy. But really, it's a traffic source. This allows you to send traffic you like. And it's good to do it.
Subscribe to people in your email list, perhaps you can do the most profitable thing with your blog - especially if you have been following with quality emails, then your readers will be more helpful.
If you ask a large internet marketer, then what they say to you is that they want to know that they started building their list. The correct demo (which provides the first quality information - without loading spammy offers) is almost as close to a powerful list of email marketing followers as it is available online for currency printing.
Let me run you how the email marketing trap works:
1. The selection box is displayed through our website - for this, we offer a special gift to confuse people to sign up. We add a well designed eCover to give even more value to these free products.
63.9% of income tax day subscribers come from our popup. The second best way to get our customers is through our non-opt-out box at the bottom of our blog post, but it's far less conversing than our popups.
You will be the first to focus on these two strategies first. Here's a good post about how we get email subscribers.
2. Visitors sign up on your email list.
3. When we have a new blog post or we get to offer good quality related to our niche, we are an email member. Sometimes we can earn thousands dollars from just one mailing by this one.
When it comes down to marketing and autoplay player software emails, we use AWeber and recommend that you order $ 1 for the first month if you order today. Without AWeber, you can consider iContact. (See, this I, giving you a choice, I will earn both ways).
Extra email marketing monetization tips:
When someone subscribes to your list, you usually encourage them in some way, such as a free eBook or some kind of training. It should be monetized with approved products and / or you should have a better training desire than you have to sell.
You should save every email changed for you better and add it to your automatic tracker list so that new customers get your maximum conversion offer automatically
Increasing Your Conversions
Although the following factors may seem to be small, in some cases the increase in conversions can be as 1000%, so pay attention.
Ask for a coupon code
Most companies will have the ability to create custom coupon codes, all you have to do is ask for them. It is great for increasing the transfer as coupons can make a big difference as such making a trial offer or getting something free. People think they are getting a good deal.
Ask for a special offer
My best converter writing links changed due to special offers of my product because I was able to offer my readers. For example, $ 1 trial or a bonus offer is only available to my readers.
Ask for higher commission rates
If you are doing a good job in promoting a product then it is possible that you can even get a good commission rate. If it's a digital product that you're promoting, then the cost per customer is very low, so it's about 100% profit. So they and about 50% of the commissions are often prepared to offer, because what they earn often performs very little.
Some product owners are ready to pay even 100% commission because the money is not acquired only through first sale, but the ability to email sales in the future and their promotion should not be forgotten.
How to Monetize a Blog By Creating and Selling Your Own Digital Product
Brainstorming Products To Create
Often, an easy task coming up with a product for creating. If you are doing a good job, your readers will tell what you want.
If you stuck for ideas, check out your most popular posts and ask yourself, can you create nearly one product from these articles? The only thing you did not prove to be popular but you already have a very targeted traffic source to sell too.
Here are the different types of products made by bloggers:
Ebook (traffic control)
Checklists (110 blog post headlines are proof of maximum traffic)
Services (completed for your blogging service)
Consulting (discuss how you can improve your blog)
Membership website (8 weeks training course for starting your first product)
Software (popup control)
Make your products
Well, suppose you're making a digital product, learning something. And you want to distribute it as an eBook or membership website. To get started, I suggest making a outline of all that teach you to teach.
Now decide whether you want it to be present in text or video, or both.
If you decide that you want to pay it as text, but it is easy enough, it transforms a PDF and allows the customer to purchase the download link once.
If you want to subscribe to a site, you have to get some membership website software and install it on your blog. Now it can be quite easy, but depending on your power level, it may be possible to rent your developer. If you are providing your training on video training, then upload it to your AmazonS3 and insert the videos on your site.
Only if it crosses your mind, it is a software product if you plan to do You have to find out a great developer and you will have to ensure there is a budget to see the project through. If you do not plan your product properly, it can end up spending a lot more than you expected!
Sell your own products
You need to plan it through your own website / mailing list and collaborate in two main ways.
Let's get you started on your website:
First of all, your readers have to be aware of what's coming. You want them excited. If you want to buy it second for their sale.
Before we launched a product and even before we announced it was selling, two people found the sales page and bought it. The next 98 subscribers signed in 100 minutes.
That's why we've pre-sold our audiences. Not only this but we add weaknesses. We all said that on the first day, we are only going to offer 100 accounts for sale. So they will be fast!
To start selling, you need three things:
- A landing page. (Page dedicated to selling your product).
- Merchant account. (We use Stripe and PayPal).
- Checkout page software.
Readers go to the landing page, they click through the buy button, go through the checkout page process, and then pay through your merchant account.
Then once they pay, they either end up downloading the page or they receive an email with a link to download the product there
Getting Affiliates To Promote Your Product
You will earn a lot more money than the promoting partners of your product than you would earn it on your own sales.
Once you start working on it, your focus with your blog can be much more than a blog rather than a business. You have resources, multiple income streams and more
Often people think, well, if all the products are made from the creation, then why creating a blog is annoying. A blog gives you credibility and authority. Without a blog, it will be very difficult for you to sell your product and to understand the industry within you. At least, this is our experience.
Take Action Today
There you have it, our top two strategies for monetizing any blog or website.
If you can keep just 3 things away from this post, I hope they will be:
1. By using a Lightbox optin I was able to significantly increase my daily email opt-in rate (304% +). I hope I have started using it soon.
2. Test for the promotion of various products, the product I propose sells at least 20 to 1 year, and I do not know if I did not change the promotions of my site
3. Ask! My conversations and sales continued to increase because I'm always asking my affiliate managers for more, a free trial, coupon codes, several landing pages - if you are going to sell more, they need to earn more money and they should at least help you Make an effort.
Good luck!
