The Right Time to Monetize Your Blog






Agree with me or not, 90% of the bloggers have started blogging for money. Some admit this fact, others try to hide it but this is the truth. You have to be very genuine and sincere. Be honest in what you do and the primary motive, the cold hard cash, will find its way to your bank account.

There are many ways to make money and Adsense and other PPC networks are the bloggers favorite. Adsense is the king till date and has a track record for authenticity and a name like Google behind it. Many bloggers put ads as soon as they create blog in order to get huge money. But this is not easy and it also leaves a bad impression of the blog in the visitor’s mind who might even vow never to visit you again.

So, when should you monetize?
The opinions may differ on this but I personally feel that the best time to start putting ads is once your blog is at least a month old. You are getting visitors around 10-20 per day; you have put all the effort in promoting it. Now its time to monetize your blog in any way you want- banner ads, Adsense, affiliate links.

What you should be careful about?
Do not over monetize the blog. Some ads would look good but too many would spoil the mood and the look of the blog which you certainly do not want. Place the ads wisely and blend them well with your blog’s design and theme.
Also take care that if you are using 125 x 125 ads in your blog, never ever display them empty. If you do not have enough ads, create some manual ads announcing something or use you referral banners there. An empty ad space is a very big negative in blogging.
Making money from blogging is not impossible but it is difficult. Keep your eyes on the goal and the day you start getting cheques, they will keep coming till the day you put your effort.
