Blog monetization, site monetization, how to turn visitors to your site or blog into revenue.... It is an on-going struggle for webmasters and web site owners. We test and tweak our ads on our web sites, we change colors and formats of our AdSense, and on and on... hoping that someone will click this or sign up for that... or buy something else. All this struggle to make a few cents when someone LEAVES your site.

It is frustrating, isn't it?

The Blog Monetization Frustration Factor

Personally, I have quite a few web sites that are what I call "looker traffic". They are just looking... not a buying crowd. I've gotten better with my AdSense optimization skills (thankfully) and make a few bucks a day off those sites.... but only if they CLICK something. Sadly, these sites get pretty high-volume traffic, but thats about all I can do to convert those visitors. What is even MORE sad, is that I just used the word "sadly" in the same sentence as "high traffic volume"! That IS the goal, isn't it? haha!

Something very, very exciting was passed along to me today. A way that every, single visitor to your web site, blog, MySpace page, or FaceBook page WILL make money.

Guess what? They don't have to click anything. They don't have to sign up for anything. They don't have to buy anything. Heck, they dont even have to LOOK at anything.

Best yet, you are not getting paid for traffic to LEAVE your site... you get paid just for someone COMING TO your site.

No traffic leaves..... No valuable space on your web site is taken up. No clicking, no videos, no flash......

Just a painfully simple advertising system that is going to make a lot of web site owners a lot of money.

Good - you really should be. I hope you continue reading.

How to End Blog Monetization Frustration

There is a monetization program that is out that I wish each and every single person that sees it will stop and pay attention to it. This advertising concept has me very excited....I could jump up and down and fill this post with fluff and hype - but I refuse to.

This blog and site monetization system is that good - and I don't want anyone to get turned off by how I expose you to it. Plus, I'm hardly trying to SELL anything here.... I just really want each and every one of you to sit up and take notice.

Heck, I won't even try and explain it myself. I don't want to screw it up =)

Once you read, you will completely understand why I am so fired-up about this program. There is no obligation to read this information - and there is absolutely no cost associated with being a PART of this system, either. This system is not widgets, or text ads, or PPC, or banners, or ANYTHING else you have already been exposed to.

This is new.. this is brilliant... this has been in testing for the last two-and-a-half years. The advertisers that are participating in this system (already over 66,000! ), LOVE it... they want MORE.

Advertisers like WHO? Yup, thought you'd ask that. Hmmmmm, well can you say "Harley Davidson" or "Taco Bell".... and so many more - including the "Big 8"!

Imagine - every single - each and every - 100% - of the visitors to your sites, blogs, MySpace, FaceBook....... all making you money - JUST FOR STOPPING BY.

Yes, to me, this is a Monetization Miracle.

Imagine what it was like being one of the FIRST webmasters to use AdSense - think those guys did any good?

Keep that in mind as you read...

And now, with any further fluff form me -

The Blog and Site Monetization Miracle

Brand New to Internet Marketing? Read my four-part blog series - How to START Making Money Online

What a great day! I came across two really cool ways to make some more money online. They're both new to me - and both are F-R-E-E!

Many of us use Adsense to monetize our niche blogs. Adsense is easy enough to use, but there are two problems with it (from my perspective).

1 - Well, pardon my "french", but the payout pretty much sucks.

2 - When someone DOES click an adsense ad on your site, sure, you make a few cents, BUT you just lost your reader. Whatever action that viewer takes after clicking your adsense ad will not be of profit to you. But, hey - you did make 10 or 15 cents. Whoopie.

So I came across this little program for webmasters/bloggers called Auction Ads. Totally free to use (which makes me like it even more..haha!).

Auction Ads makes MORE money than Adsense, and can be used WITH adsense - that's a nice "plus" to this totally free revenue-generating program, isn't it?

Auction Ads work with the eBay affiliate program. I placed one of the ads on my right sidebar down towards the bottom. No, those type ads don't really "fit in" on this blog, but I like using this blog to show different ideas for making money with niche blogs. I guess it can make this blog look a bit "cluttered", but I think you come here for information - not to be dazzled, right? Right. Besides, I really want a new laptop, so those ads will help me keep an eye out for a great deal.

ANYWAY - for a product-specific or review type site, these ads are awesome. With Auction Ads you get to choose the keywords that decide which products will be shown on your site. there are different ad formats and colors to choose from and over-all, it is WAY easy to use.

The ads are linked to auctions on eBay.

How do you make money? Lets get that answer straight from the source:

When your site's visitors click on an Auction Ad listing and take an action on eBay you earn cash. Actions are defined as a Winning Bid, a Buy-it-Now or a confirmed user registration. AuctionAds is committed to paying out a minimum of 100% of eBay commission revenue. See eBay's affiliate program for details on the payout.

Ok, WHEN and HOW do you get paid?

We send out payments the first of every month via PayPal. The payment is for all revenue generated the previous month.

SO what I earn this month, in September, will be paid out October 1st - Nice!

Ok - so how ELSE can I make money with Auction Ads?

There is no need to sign up for our affiliate program because our affiliate program is built right into the ads you display! If a user clicks on the "Ads by AuctionAds" that is displayed and signs up for our service you earn a bonus 5% of all revenue generated by that user for the 6 months.

You will get paid the first of every month via Paypal. We feature a 30 day cookie on all referrals.

Wah???? A 30 days cookie?!?!? That means if someone clicks my ad today, but doesn't actually buy anything for 2 weeks...3 weeks... 30 DAYS, I STILL get credited? Now, THAT is awesome! Adsense ain't got no cookies! haha!

As you can tell, I'm a bit fired up about discovering Auction Ads. They fit in real niiiiiiice with my niche blogs ;)

Second Cool Discovery of the Day:

Now this is brand-spanking new - actually, it's not even "live" yet. It's a little program called DealDotCom that shows promise to make BIG money - or, at least a nice additional revenue stream from your online efforts.

Here's the deal with DealDotCom:

(note from me: I love the humor on this site)

How Do You Make Money (ie, Whats In It For me?)

We give you a special link to share with your friends. You strong-arm them into signing up for a free DealDotCom account, and anytime they ever buy anything from us, you get paid. Our affiliate program is 2-tiered, so not only will you get paid for purchases that your friend makes, but you’ll also get paid for purchases that THEIR friends make.

Ok, sounds good, but what's up with this "two-tiered affiliate" business?

When you refer others to DealDotCom and they get their free account, they are marked in our system as having been referred by you. Anything that they ever buy from us nets you a 35% commission. Notice the word "ever" in the previous sentence... as in FOREVER. It doesn't matter if they buy something tomorrow, next week, or fifty years from now - you're going to get paid. What's more, anyone that they refer to DealDotCom goes on your second tier. Anything people on your second tier buy nets you a 15% commission. Again, FOREVER.

Lifetime Cookies..awesome. Again, I feel the need to say, "Adsense ain't got no cookies!!"

Pretty sweet deal, huh?

So, they are only selling "make money online" related products (and they are also accepting new products to market for review - hint hint to my product owners out there). They will be selling ONE product per day and at a really low price (lower than the general public can get it) and will only offer a very limited quantity of each product. When people you refer buy - you make money. When the people you refer have people THEY have referred make a purchase, again, YOU MAKE MONEY.

Now, here's the sweet part - pay attention ;)

You see, DealDotCom hasn't even launched yet. The doors open on Tuesday, Sept 18th. You are only seeing this page because someone really, really cool (and well connected, and probably very good looking too) hit you with a link to this preview page. You should thank them.

Awww shucks.... I'm really, really cool AND good looking (and well connected, too!)

Take a peek at DealDotCom - you'll be glad you did.
