How to generate revenue from a simple website?Out of many ideas, blog site can go on top of every other criteria. It's commonly found resource for any kind of search materials. How much does it cost to blog? BestWebsiteCompany offers blog based site for just $3/mo. This also includes Hosting. If you are good at installation and hosting files, you can do it yourself.

One of the big advantages is that you can use your own domain name (i.e. yourblog.com). While this might not seem like a big deal, it is a lot easier for people to remember yourblog.com rather than yourblog.blogspot.com which is what you will be given if you use Blogger. I will warn you, being a non-techie myself, this took me some time figuring out how to get my self-hosted site set up. Wordpress.org has a great step-by-step guide for getting you set up. While it is more work on the front end, I am really glad I got good advice and did this at the beginning, than having to do it now. Pick a Domain Name 1. You should start by purchasing a domain name. Psychicwhois.com is a great tool to see what names are still available. I would suggest going to for a .com rather than a .info or .us or anything else for that matter. It is just too easy for people to get confused. A .com is always going to hold more value than any other extension. Purchase the domain from BestWebsiteCompany.
As I said earlier, there many ways. We will go with blog for now. There are a few different ad networks that I use on CPF. The most successful one has been Google's Adsense program. Basically what they do is read the article that I write and find ads that are relevant to it and display them next to the article. The great thing about it is that by having extremely relevant ads, it actually can be quite beneficial to the readers as well. For example, if I write an article explaining what an IRA was, but didn't mention where you could open one, Adsense would likely be displaying ads of places to open an IRA. So as a reader, if I read that article and decided that I did want to open an IRA, the ads would be providing options that the article did not. I am currently doing a few tests with another CPC network called Chitika. Apparently, you can use it in conjunction with Adsense. The jury is still out, but I am interested to see how it compares to Adsense. All things considered, I have found that if optimized correctly, Adsense really can work well. I will explain more about how to optimize it in sections below. While Adsense pays on a click basis (CPC), I use other ad networks that pay by the total # of impressions (CPM). At the beginning, these networks didn't produce much income, but as the traffic grows CPM networks seem to work well in conjunction with Adsense. I use (or have used) Adsdaq, Casale Media, Adbrite, Adify, Veremedia, and BuzzLogic. Each has their own strengths and weaknesses and may be suitable for one kind of a site and not another. Basically an example of an affiliate sale would be if you sold lawn mowers and I referred a customer to you, if they purchased you would pay me back a % of the sale for referring them. There are a million options for this on the internet now. The main programs I use are Amazon's Affiliate program, FlexOffers, LinkConnector, Commission Junction, Shareasale, E-Junkie, and LinkShare. There are many others, but these are a few of the more popular ones available. I have a very strong policy about honest recommendations. I give my honest opinions about products that I find regardless of how it will affect affiliate sales. This is probably why I don't really make too much with affiliate products. For example, I wrote about Cash Crate and updated the article to show what I didn't like about them. Because Cash Crate has such a generous referral program, I know some people making lots of money from it, but I just don't feel comfortable recommending it since I had a bad experience using it. On the other hand there are products like ING Direct, Ebates, Amazon Prime, Ebay, and Sharebuilder that I recommend and also have some sort of affiliate or referral program as well. These are what I love because I can help readers by pointing them to good resources and tools that have helped me and get paid in the process. I know some people don't have a problem promoting anything that will pay them, but I just can't, in good conscience, recommend something to someone that I don't genuinely believe will help them. I also sell ad space directly to advertisers. This hasn't provided much income for me yet and may or may not even be worth my time. I know that in certain niche markets direct ad sales can work out very well, but thus far it hasn't been a big money maker on CPF. Please note, Adsense is helpful for website owners. It is probably not the best solution for all advertisers. Please read our Google related articles.
