    So i recently started a technology blog with great instantly great results (traffic wise), which i expected because i have experience in SEO and stuffs. Anyways, i was wondering what the most effective method of making money with a technology blog would be? Im really leaning away from Google Adsense because their ads look like shit for a modern blog (excuse my russian) .

    The only viable method ive though of so far is affiliate marketing with Newegg and other major stores.

    Affiliate marketing is a good idea but to make reall money with affiliates isn't just a case of shoving a load of banners up, this doesnt really work any more. You would really need to write full page ads and drive traffic to it.

    Its based on a single line of product, so writing a sales page will be difficult to tie to this niche. My plan was to add a buy now button from various retailers in the sidebar that takes them to the category of the product. Any other ideas?

    A lot of money to be made with cpa. I suggest you put up some technology email submits or zip submits.
