Hello warriors,

I own a SEO company. We were working for some other SEO company for a long time and had lot of work from him but unfortunately that guy have started some other business so we are experienced. Can rank sites but don't have any reviews/Results to show to buyers right now. So, I am planning to start few sites and then rank them to prove that our seo strategy work. But at the same time I want to earn money from these sites because I have to pay my staff and can't bear all the expenses for the long time from my pocket. So, my question is this. How to make money from the blogs/site once I rank them and getting enough traffic? I can't use adsense because I don't like their policies for some reason.. I do not want to discuss this right now.. Just want that is there any other way to monetize a blog except adsense. Don't tell me about things like infolinks as their payout is damn low but something which could make each blog make at least $50 a month...

Please do not do criticize on any thing just help me if you can else thank you for your time to read this..

      Great and quick answer love you dude... Only about the amazon... their policies are tough like adsense also... they do not pay quick or every month.. but other things are really worth considering.. Thank you for your time.

    You seem to have a lot of restrictions on the type of answers you'll accept. Good luck.

    Really you guys are awesome... I never thought about promoting my own product. I can easily get an PLR right product and promote it on my site.. Also at the same time I can promote affiliate sites.. So, lets assume that I have fitness related blog so can get some click bank products there and on top banner placement I will put my own product at the same time I will be collecting lead with autoresponder with less annoying pop-up plugin... And later if I found my traffic is not converting well so I can rent ad space

    Sounds like a great business plan.. Will look to it soon... But you guys tell me how good or bad is my plan?

      It sounds good! But perhaps you can use the PLR product as a free giveaway to collect names on your list and in the meantime develop your own product (or outsource its development). OR use the PLR to create a small product that you can use to monetize while you create your own?

        Yes all the above are good, yes building a list is a gret idea to also monetize in the long run and offer your own unique ebook, or gift to your subs, which you can build up emails relationship to give tips and suggested products ( affiliated) to monetize.

    You said, you are an SEO guy and can rank sites easily .. why don't you create affiliate site with any of the product available on CB or CJ etc... and rank them on 1st page.. that is what most affiliate do ....

    I would personally go for clickbank or create your own products.

    CPA is also good but depends on the niche.

    Cheers,

      CPA is another good idea but I never tried it. Don't really know how it works I have read few books about that so I have some idea but never tried so I am not sure can I use it or not. While on clickbank I have made few sales before using some different strategy.... Will CB for sure..

        I don't quite understand why you would want create promotions for other products and go through the effort to rank other sites. If you're as good as you say with SEO then the way to build a business (not just monetize a blog) is to write and publish great content on what you know... SEO. Offer your services as an seo provider. Offer your knowledge as a consultant / coach for a premium price to teach others your unique system. Create and launch a low end wso product related to your expertise and unique strategies and sell it here on the forum. Then up-sell buyers on your advanced strategies and on your coaching services.

    Membership sites and monetizing your own brain for a monthly residual income is where it's at.

    Ebooks, clickbank and affiliate programs have their place but if you can control you own income source and destiny, you are much better off.

    Why put your success in the hands of others, when you can make your own luck.

    Have you considered other types of paid business models that don't rely on advertising?

    I wouldn't align myself up with Amazon. You can use Clickbank, Paydotcom, Ebay... or sell your own products. Check to see if you can become an affiliate for Walmart products also. Or purchase one of those "adsense-styled clickbank rotating code". Same premise of Adsense, but each link goes to a sales letter page that has your affiliate link (and hoplink) already embedded on the vendor page.

      I always find that Adsense on its own it not worth it unless you are getting thousands and thousands of daily visitors.

      On my niche blogs for example I find that the biggest income streams is amazon associates programme and advertising.

      So go with amazon its a great way to build up your income streams.

        Its an other great Idea. I am already keeping an eye on an-other blogger who have SEO blog with really great content I am a fan of that guy he really share unique content so I was already thinking about this. But right now the problem is I do not want to write my self as you can see english is not my first language. So, I just want to get some writer to write 5-10 articles per site and I want to launch 5-10 sites in different niches to prove my that my SEO services works. But still as I told you that I was already planning to do what you have told me so I will look in to this a bit later when I could give it some time.. Now a days I already have a lot of things to do so this SEO business is only what my employees work for me I guide them do not do every thing on it.

        You really have great thoughts in your mind.. Thnx again

        I think amazon is as hard as adsense means. they do not pay weekly like clickbank do. they pay i think after 2-3 months? Am I wrong? I really do not have enough knowledge about Amazon but what I heard about it from others didn't impress me. So I will appreciate if you can guide me a bit more.

    There are several monetization methods for EVERY kind of business you might want to start online. If you can tell us more about what the websites will be about then maybe we can give you better answers.

    If you just want to throw some websites over there, with 10-20 articles, just review some products related to your website topic and you will make good bucks. If people come to read your articles, and you articles recommend affiliate products than you can earn a lot of money. Because you directly recommend a product you can have a conversion rate of at least 1% and you can get even to 5-10%. You can earn up commissions up to 100$ ( depending on what you promote ). If you can bring 100 visitors a day to your website you can make around 100$ a day.

    I would stay away from amazon because they give low commisions, and their cookie is cleared as soon as the visitor leave the page ( unless he added the product to the basket ). Before choosing a niche, look around to find good offers that you can promote. If there are not enough, then you should jump to another niche.

    Or, if you can provide quality articles or a quality software, or books with resale rights, try to sell them directly on your site. Or better, set up a subscription.

    Don't forget about getting the emails, try to convert visitors into subscribers from your article pages, give them something free and advertise the offer on the website.

    BuySellAds has proved itself as one of the best AdSense alternatives. BuySellAds is a different kind of ad network which connects the direct advertisers with you and your ad spaces are sold on a time basis like for months, years etc. getting BuySellAds approval is tough as they approve websites with huge traffic (50,000 UPV / month).
