Blog Advertising and Marketing Opportunities

I have a personal blog that I advertise my services & products with. Blogs let visitors know who you are, builds trust and faith in your products and services, and brands you as an expert in your certain area of expertise. You can go to google and get your own blogspot for free. You can put your profile there, put your articles on the site, run ads for yourself and others that will pay you for blog advertising.

Bloggers can use these three ways to make money with blog advertising from their site:

• Pay-per-action: Every time a visitor clicks on a ad and makes a purchase the blogger gets paid.
• Pay-per-impression: Every time an ad appears on the blog's page the blogger gets paid.
• Pay-per-click: Every time someone clicks on the advertisers ad the blogger gets paid.

I also incorporate another income stream called contextual blog advertising that is based on the blog page content and is pay-per-click ads. The ads should be in relation to the blog contend so that the site has integrated harmony. You would not want to see football tickets advertised on a baseball site, or adult content ads on a child site. Google AdSense and Kontera are real good examples of contextual blog advertising opportunities at their best. I use them both.

Text link ads is blog advertising that appears right in the content of the blog. This is another type of blog marketing that happens when visitors are reading your blog content on lets say the strawberry markets and you are paid to put keywords in like where to buy the strawberries at. Text link blog advertising opportunities exist with Text-Link-Ads and Text Link Brokers both of which I use on a regular basis.

I get paid with impression based ads on my blog advertising and marketing site also. These are based on the number of times an ad is placed by an advertiser and is run on your site. I work with Perfect Traffic Storm, FastClick, and Tribal Fusion on my blog to get my money flowing.

I also get paid with affiliate ads that allow companies to place ads on my site that lead back to their site where purchases are made. I then receive a commission on a percentage of that sale. This is accomplished by a affiliate link attached to the sellers web link. I work with Ebay Affiliates and Amazon Affiliates as a way to generate additional income streams for my advertising blog.

I also allow advertisers to place banner ads on my site which are direct ads that create another income stream for my blog advertising & marketing site. Prices are dependent on the traffic that my blog receives. These type of advertisers can see the traffic you get with Alexa, a ranking site. These types of direct advertisers are called sponsors and can sometimes make or break your site.

I also use companies who want me to write reviews for their products, services, business, website, etc. on my advertising & marketing blog. When I am paid to write a post for these advertisers I receive the funds right into my paypal account. This allows me to further my agenda on my advertising blog by using these funds to fuel my passion for writing. I subscribe to a article blog marketing site that teaches you how to market yourself through attraction marketing. This course is funded by my sponsored reviews. There is an entire niche market place on the web that offers forms of review advertising, Blogadvertisingstore.com come to mind.

I like to write for my blog advertising & marketing site so I can send my latest renderings to article directories. The article directories give my articles away for free with my links back to my blog. This is another good way to get free advertising for your advertising blog. I have a piece of software called Article Submitter Pro that I use to blast out my articles to over 1500 article directories world wide. I also use Unique Article Wizard that turns one article into three. It spins two other articles out of the one original that allows you to send out two more from just one effort.

I use article marketing to advance my popularity for my blog advertising & marketing site. I try to blend and harmonize what I have on my site with the articles I write. You write about what you want to promote. I took courses on advertising and marketing from Wealthy Affiliate University & Maverick Money Makers. I found their training to be invaluable for what I do. I advertise their affiliate programs for internet marketing on my blog advertising & marketing site daily.

You need to generate income from the web with your blog advertising & marketing site and have as many income streams as possible. I have found that people want to learn about marketing themselves on the net so I promote internet marketing training with the articles I write. There are so many new people from around the world that want to have additional income streams that I have found this to be very rewarding if I can help them in anyway possible.
