(For this case a dating site)

—————————————–Beginning of Post—————————————————-

“Recently, I met this girl from this Dating site(make sure you include your affiliate link here). I think she is the kind of person i have been looking for all my life. I’m glad to have found someone who can potentially be my lifetime companion.

———————————————-End Of Post——————————————————

A post like from the example above can easily earn you a decent amount of money when you readers click and sign up to the dating website through your affiliate link.

If you pay close attention to the message, there is no selling intention from the writer’s part. He was just sharing his news about meeting a new companion from a dating website that’s all.

• Selling Text links or Banner Ads in your blog.

If your blog is receiving 100s and 1000s of viewers per day, you can visit webmaster forums and post a message stating that you are leasing out textlinks and banner ads at your blog. When you post, provide your blog’s traffic details and the url of your blog. Be clear and reasonable with your asking price and be open to negotiations and bargains. Leasing out textlinks and banner ads on your blog is a decent way to earn residual income.

However, do not over commercialize your blog as it will turn off your readers and make them turn away. People get irritated when too many ads are displayed. So have at most one or two ads displayed per page on your blog.

There are alot of great books that give you detailed information on how to blog & earn extra money. You should consider getting some of them to read.
