You have probably got your blogs up and running by now and though you have probably signed up to sites such as blogitive etc., they probably haven’t been accepted yet. This takes time and is the main reason why you must promote your blogs. The thing is you don’t need to wait for acceptance to start monetizing your blog.

The first thing you must do is to join Google Adsense which you can do by clicking the Google icon in the right column. Once a member you can then place Google ads on your blog. This is a great way of generating passive income. You will generate an income everytime someone clicks on your Google Adsense and every certain amount of page impressions.

You could also consider Adbrite and Software AdsNow which are Google type adsense ads. One that I highly recommend is checkmystats which allows you to select form hundreds of merchants to advertise on your blog. You can even choose to have rotating banner ads which is basically a banner which changes with each page refresh. This is an example of such an ad.

Kontera  similar to Google Adsense is another company you should join. Once their code is added to your site it selects keywords on you website/blog and hi-lights them. When a user hovers their mouse over the word a description comes up and if they click on it you get paid. The words on this post that are hi-lighted in blue are kontera ads.

I recommend joining some affiliates and promoting them in your blog. This can be done either editing your templates or recomending it in one of your posts, or even by placing a link at the end of your post. A good affiliate to join is LunarPages which is a webhosting company. Everyone who is serious about making money needs somewhere to host their site/blog and LunarPages is one of the best. They will pay $65 for anyone who purchases a package after clicking on your link.

For more affiliates you could join, check this site. One thing you should keep in mind is that you should not have to pay to join an affiliate.
