Sell ad space on your blog.......

that SOUNDS great try the ad thing or sell time on your blog to companies not just ads.

The easiest way is to sell advertising on your blog.

However, if you will sell advertising and want to earn good money from it, the topic of your blog is critical. You can't simply blog about your favorite dog or about your thoughts in life -- you need to consider:

1 - the topic that has plenty of advertisers. Blogging about business opportunities is good because there's lot of advertisers, but talking about your favorite hamster may not have that many advertisers.

Not many advertisers = not much income.

2 - the topic that will attract readership. There are thousands and thousands of blog out there. What will make your blog stand out? What kind of topic will attract huge a audience? Again, if you talk about your hamster, maybe only a handful will be interested reading about it, but if you talk of business opportunities, thousands and thousands of people are looking to start a business and would be interested to hear what tips and advice people can give them

No audience = no traffic = no income

The easiest way is to use Blogger because it is a blog platform that allows people to earn money from them. Then apply to Google Adsense http://www.google.com/adsense

Once your blog has grown in readership, you can use ad networks such as Federated Media which sells ad spaces for blogs. But this company represents the top notch blog, so it harder to get in. But their rates are top notch as well so bloggers they represent really earn money

You can write blog and earn money by putting ads on it. Ads form google ads, bidvertiser ads, Chitika many are there. But very important thing is you have to bring traffic to your blog. The more the traffic you will earn more. You can also promote websites thru affiliate marketing on your blog.

Google ads is a good one, I also recommend text-link-ads. They will sell links on your site for you, then pay you. Check out the link in the source here for a lot of good information.
