I’ve run a few contests to promote my blog and most have been successful. The best part is that it didn’t cost me a lot of money or time. I gave away an mp3 player that was laying around my storage box, i’ve given away 5 dollars, and 50 bucks. Nothing over that. I don’t think the dollar amount is the most important thing when holding a contest to promote your blog. I think the most important thing is to keep it simple, fun, and fast.

If you have a a blog or website that gets some decent traffic, you should look into net audio ads. They are an audio ad company that plays 5 second spots and you get paid regardless of if any of your readers click on anything. It’s another way to monetize your website or blog. I think the important thing about monetizing a blog is to try out a lot of different thing. Different sites can make money off of different ad programs. If you try out a program and it doesn’t make any money, switch it up and find another one to replace it with. Keep doing this until you settled into your own monetizing groove. I was lucky in monetizing my blog early, but i can understand how it hard it might be for some in the early stages. The key thing is to not give up and keep trying new things. If you do that, you’ll discover a few extra dollars in your paypal account. It’s not a get rich scheme, it’s about work and timing. It’s about not giving up and like anything in life, you gotta be lucky too. If 5 second audio ads interests you, check out Net Audio Ads.

I think the best internet marketers are Asian females. One of the reasons i started thinking about setting up my own blog was cause i read kumiko’s blog when she was on blogspot. I thought it was cool how she was able to make a few bucks by blogging. Obvious kumiko played the cute japanese girl card to promote her blog. I don’t even know if the blogger is a cute japanese girl or a fat balding old guy. No one will ever know. The point im making is this. Blogging about making money online or personal development is all the same. All of the content is same. If you’ve read one make money blog or personal development blog, you’ve read them all. To be different is to promote personality. It’s all about personality. If part of that can be enhanced by projecting the sexy Asian girl vibe, that’s a big time plus. That’s better then getting reviewed on all of the major make money blogs. Read More to Make Money Online »
