Different Ways to Monetize Your Blog
I have recently been experimenting with monetizing my blog and wanted to share with you some of the programs I have found so far.
Sponsored Tweets– I’ve made over $70 and they pay via Paypal. I get emails when I have an offer and then I just login and write the tweet and submit- voila! You can now cash out before you reach the $50 minimum, buy you are subject to a $2 withdrawal fee. I like that it also suggests the price you should charge per tweet.
My Likes– I’ve made at least $40 or $50 so far. I like that they pay weekly via Paypal on any balance over $2.
Coupons, Deals & Freebie Offers
Logical Media- They have the most campaigns out of all the coupon sites that I am with. I try to weed through the offers and pick ones that I think would interest my readers. I’ve made a little over $40 with them over the last month or so.
My Savings Media- This is my favourite one out of the coupon affiliates. They have the highest quality of offers and are picky with who they work with. I actually had someone call me from My Savings Media before they accepted me. I appreciated that they took the time to check out me and my site. I have been with them about a month or so and have made about $25.
Escalate Media– I have made the least with this one. I think I have about $10. They have lots of offers though.
WeUseCoupons.com- I really like this one because its pay per click and you get bonuses for every referral. I have made about $36 so far. You just have to put the little button up on your site and when people click it to get their coupons, you earn $.
Other Affiliate Programs
Shareasale- I use this one the most and like that its easy to navigate and get your links. You can find good quality programs for quality products like Flirty Aprons. I have made about $18 with them.
LinkShare– I am new on here so I haven’t made anything yet.

I have made a ton of money with some of those listed. I am an affiliate for just about everyone that is worth working with. For me they have to have great products that people actually want. I won’t push junk..its not worth it.
One of those mentioned I make about $250 a month and the others come in at various amounts. Play around with them and sign up with companies that have great brands and products. Hint: the more freebies you can give away, the more traffic to your site and the more $$ you make.

They pay on the 15th of the month.
