1. Sell ebooks

2. Share your affiliate links

3. Sponsored posts

5. Offer paid counsels

1. Sell ebooks

Let us quickly take a look at what an ebook is to give you a better understanding.

What is an ebook?

An ebook is more or less like a digital book created for sale which is always in a pdf form when downloaded. Ebooks can be created to teach something or as a story.

Some writers don't sell physical books anymore, they sell their books in form of an ebook. Reading from your phone is more interesting than reading a physical book because it gets boring when you are reading a physical book.

How can I sell my ebooks through my Blogs?

Selling your ebooks through your blog is a very easy task. Let me give you an example.

I am in Nigerian, I was looking for a way to withdrawdraw my PayPal funds to my bank account because PayPal in Nigeria allows only receiving of money and doesn't allow withdrawal of money. When I went home to Google to search on this topic on how to withdraw my PayPal funds to my bank account I landed on a guy's blog. He said it was possible for us to withdraw directly from our Paypal to our bank account. 

After he assured his readers that they could withdraw directly from their paypal to their bank account, he told them to get his ebook because the whole information on how to withdraw from PayPal directly to our bank account is fully detailed in the book.

I am sure the guy would have made a lot of sales on his ebook because so many Nigerians are so desperate to know how to withdraw from their PayPal account to their bank accounts.

The story above is a life example. You can also learn from the story above and put it into practice on your blogs. It is likely to work for you.

2. Share your affiliate links

Sharing your affiliate link is one of the most profitable way to monetize your blog. This way your readers become your customer indirectly.

What is an affiliate link?

An affiliate link is a derived URL gotten from a vendor by an affiliate with the intention of promoting the product the vendor is willing to sell at a particular period of time and price.

How can I share my affiliate link on my blog?

affiliate links are usually ugly and unpresentable. So this makes it impossible for you to just drop the link directly on your blog. The way you can put your affiliate links on your blog is by creating a back end link to hide your affiliate links.

How can I make my readers click those links?

There is no shortcut to making your readers click your links. The only way is to write a quality content. If your content is a very good one, no doubt, your links would be checked out.

if your affiliate link is clicked constantly, your commissions would also increase massively as long as you always get good and substantial amount of traffic to your blogs.

3. Sponsored posts

Securing a sponsored post is not easy to get but you can surely get one with your hard work and diligence.

What is a sponsored post?

A sponsored post is a paid blog post written by blogger and paid by the client the blogger secures to write for. A sponsored post can be written to review the client's products or to tell his audience about the client's product.

How can I secure a sponsored post?

Securing a sponsored post contract is not an easy thing to get as I have said before but what you need to do is always try to put a lot of effort into your blogs to make them more professional and quality day by day. There might be one of your constant readers who might love your blog and will try to contact you to write a blog about his products to review it or advertise it.

How much can I charge for sponsored posts?

Only you know the worth of your blogs but never charge below $200.

4. Embed YouTube videos

Embedding your YouTube videos is also a profitable way to make more money with your blogs. Often times, people prefer watching videos to understand better.

Studies have said that we are able to remember the videos we watch for a very long time but the things we read for a very short time.

For instance, do you remember that film you've watched for a very long time that you can still remember vividly today? That is how it is. if your YouTube is embedded on your blog, they would probably read what you wrote briefly and go for the embedded video so as to understand what you are trying to tell them. But make sure your embedded video and your written article are the same

How to embed your YouTube videos

Go to the section where you can find the option to upload video. With blogger, you can either upload from your computer or from your YouTube video directly. All You Need to do is to input the link to your YouTube video, and it would be fetched automatically. Other  blogging sites would also allow you to drop your YouTube video link to embed your video.

5. Offer paid counsels

If you are an experienced blogger you can also offer paid counsels to other bloggers so that they can also benefits from you and make it as a blogger.

Some bloggers make some good sum of money by just offering this paid counsels. Some accept $370, some $200, and some $250 just for counsels to other bloggers who are willing to grow their blogs. This  counsels should be done by you when you know your experience can teach others to become what you have become- a successful blogger.

One more thing is that your counsels must have a productive effect on those you put through to become successful bloggers so as to get good testimonials and with this you would be referred to many other bloggers and your cool Cashes will keep rolling in daily!
