How to menetize a blogspot blog

BlogSpot’s primary monetizing method is through AdSense advertisements, as the blogging platform integrates the service if you have an active account. Should the user click an ad, a certain amount is deposited into your AdSense account by the ad's creator. If you don't have an AdSense account or wish to explore other methods to make money, there are various alternate ways to cash in for your work, services and promotions.

Product sales are a common way to monetize your blogs. Whether you sell digital goods or physical products, advertise each item with all necessary details and purchase options. You can host items on services such as PayLoads, e-Junkie and TradeBit, and list physical products with a customized shipping requirement of your choice. Alternatively, redirect blog visitors to auction websites such as eBay and Amazon.com by providing a link to the item’s sales page.

Affiliates

Affiliate sales are widely used among Internet marketers and those looking for additional income streams. Many company websites support affiliate programs, typically giving you a specified commission for selling individual items. These range from airplane tickets to computer software, and the money earned is determined by the website in question. Places such as ClickBank and LinkShare host a large variety of products; copy the affiliate link from the item’s sales page and place it on a blog post as a hyperlink.
