Make some easy money with your websites and The AdNetwork

After Bucks4Banners closed it's doors, I promised you that I would find you another program similar to it, and I did, it's called The AdNetwork!

The way this program works is simple. You apply for an account with The AdNetwork using an existing website that you own. It doesn't matter how old the website is or how much traffic it has or does not have. They do have a few rules about what the site can and cannot have in terms of content, just the usual stuff... no adult content, no illegal stuff, no get-rich-quick websites, etc.

In your application, you have to provide The AdNetwork with three urls, all from the same domain, where you intend to place their banners. Then wait the two or three days for them to manually review your site. Once you're approved, you're provided with specific code that you paste into the three pages that you specified. Remember that it doesn't matter whether or not you have traffic, all that matters is that the website meets their content specs, which is not hard to do.

You will get paid as long as the three ads remain on your website, regardless of whether someone clicks on them, or whether no one ever visits your website. Isn't that easy?

You can add as many domains as you want, and once they're approved you can put the banners on the pages. Now that's an easy way to make some money every month. They pay using Amazon vouchers or PayPal. And guess what, they have an affiliate program too!

So what are you waiting for, go ahead and apply for The AdNetwork and Earn Credit for your Website!

Make Money with AuctionAds

In a previous post I discussed making money on your website by using Google Adsense. Today I want to discuss another advertising service that also yields good results - AuctionAds .

I am assuming that by now you have a website up and running using the tips I gave you in previous posts, and you have been driving traffic to it. I hope you have also joined some PTP forums like Code4Gold that pay you for making posts, and affiliate programs such as LinkShare Referral Program, and are starting to make some money from these different venues.

AuctionAds is a service that allows you to post eBay ads on your website. Signing up is easy and fast, and once you're a publisher, you can create and customize the ads that you want to appear on your page. One of the differences between adsense and AuctionAds is that you can specify the keywords for the ads that you want on your pages. So say you have a website about dogs, you can specify keywords such as dog, "dog leash", etc, to serve the ads you want to show. You can set colors and links so that your ads blend in well with your website, and the process is easy and painfree.

One nice thing about AuctionAds is that there is no restriction as to how many ads you can have on your page, unlike adsense which limits you.

AuctionAds has an affiliate program, so that if someone joins AuctionAds using a link you have posted on your site, you get some payment for that. So check out AuctionAds and see if you can add to your sources of income!

Bucks4Banners Closes its Doors

Today I was going to post about a new program I found, bucks4banners.net, and tell you how wonderful I thought it was. I usually don't like to post about a program until I have used it and found that it works. So I was waiting for my sign-on bonus and payment before telling you to join the program. Yesterday I received my payment, as promised, and was really excited. When I opened their web page to look at my account, I found the following message:

We are no longer accepting new applicants for Bucks4Banners. You can log in below if you have an existing account.


It seems that they have closed the doors to new applicants. Sad.

I will be keeping an eye on the website and will post as soon as they reopen their program. In the meantime, I will be searching for more money-making programs and posting about them here.

Make Money with Affiliate Networks - Linkshare

Besides using advertising to monetize your website, you can also use affiliate programs. The way affiliate programs work is by giving you code to paste on your webpages, much like adsense and other advertising programs do. The difference with affiliate programs is that the person who clicks on the ad needs to performs some act for you to earn money.

For example, if you're an Amazon.com affiliate, then users would need to click on your links and buy something, for you to earn revenue. In some cases, all a user needs to do is click on the link and request information. This is called a "lead", and I find these to be the easiest ones to earn from since the user doesn't have to spend money.

There are many affiliate programs, and I will present them to you one or two at a time.

The first one that I will discuss is the LinkShare Referral Program.

This program makes you money every time someone clicks on one of your links and applies for an account with Linkshare. LinkShare offers affiliates the opportunity to earn money by referring other affiliates to the LinkShare Network. Earn $1.50 for every valid referral that registers as an affiliate with LinkShare and generates at least one click-through within 30 days of registering.

Because getting an account is free, you actually have better conversion rates with this kind of affiliate program because people will usually sign up for free stuff.

As you can see, they have a variety of banners that you can try out, and text links too, and choose the best one for you. You can also rotate among several types of banners.

So try out Linkshare and start earning some money.

Make Money fromyour Website/Blog with Advertising

In my last post I suggested one quick way of making money even without a website, and that was by joining a Paid to Post forum like Code4Gold, and learning about making money while getting paid for it.

In this post I am going to continue on with the idea of using your website for making money. In a previous post, I gave you some directions on getting a website going, and what you needed. If you've come with me this far, you now have the tools you need to make some money, and a website that you can use for this.

One of the easiest ways to make money using your website is to sell advertising space. There are many companies that would love to put their ads on your web page, especially if you create a website that has rich relevant content. Since you don't want to go out looking for these companies, let Google do it for you. Google Adsense makes sense! It's one of the easiest ways to start monetizing your website or blog and making some money.

To get adsense you need a Gmail account and a website. Then simply apply for an adsense account, ensuring that your website has a good amount of content. You need to make sure that your website does not contain any adult material, illegal stuff (like discussions on pirating software and stuff like that, because this violated the Adsense Terms of Service.

Once you have your adsense account, you can start placing the ads on your website or blog and customizing them to suit your layout. I will be posting some optimization tips that you can follow to make the best of your ad space. Adsense also has a user forum where people can advise you and help you optimize your ad placement.

So go now and apply for an adsense account and start monetizing your website!
