Tip #2: Monetize Your Blog - Affiliate Programs

Affiliate websites are a platform which sellers use to sell their products. People who promotes their products and create a sale will earn a commission from these sellers. Affiliate programs are a great way to monetize a blog as bloggers can promote any products, preferably a product that is related to field, on their blogs.

Bloggers may also recommend products that are a must-buy. Be truthful. Give a brief idea of what the product is about and why is it beneficial for your readers to get it. This will be hard in the beginning. You may generate little or no sale. But never give up. Over time, you will gain the trust of your readers.

Darren Rowse, creator of ProBlogger, is one who you can learn from. He had done well in affiliate programs. He had written a book titled 31 Days To Build A Better Blog. The link will bring you to Darren's blog where he will tell you more about his book.
