Am starting to build a blog about places, food, drinks and lifestyle about one of the USA greatest cities. How can in monetize it ?
You probably need to start driving traffic to your blog first before considering any monetization. What's the point of monetizing a site if it still has no traffic?
I’ve found the best way to make money blogging is to do sponsored posts, and selling a product like an eBook on your own blog.
Yeah but why not have ads on your blog while bringing in traffic... wouldnt you be loosing potential money with the flow coming in?
You mean an ebook written by myself, or there is a way to find people that want to post a link in your blog to their ebook so you get commission form the ebook sales? And about the sponsored post, is there a website where i can find people that wants sponsored post on my niche?
Time is the ultimate solution for you. You need to give your hard labor for a fairly long time. This two (time and hard work) are good enough for your blog.
Include unique and stranded contents and nice Images in your blog and try to increase your visitor. When you will receive targeted visitors then start Affiliate products Ads or Affiliate marketing. Here you also can include other Ads. Thus you can start. Work more and earn more. What is your targeted income per day?
Yes, create a free account in Clickbank and search in the Marketplace for your niche. you mentioned your blog is about "the greatest US city". Maybe its new york city? If it is, just search the name in clickbank and you'll get a result for a product or ebook thats related. then post the affiliate link in the bottom of your blog articles and you will get paid in commissions. Follow this advice and you will make lots of money over the long term. keep posting articles. you're on the right path!
You can monetize your blog by putting Adsense or other Ad Networks on your blog. You can use CPA/Affiliate Marketing. Create your own website to offer deals for this city. There are many different ways that you can monetize your blog. They all just take time, effort, and work, as well as having traffic visiting your blog or website.
How much traffic are you getting right now? You must at least have enough and stable traffic every month in order to monetize your blog.
