Blog Biz Kit vs GOOGLE

Blogs for Profit

Blogs were not all designed to be for profit. They first began as online diaries. They were meant to be a bit entertaining, and mostly provide information to their readers.

Blogging for profit, while not new, has taken a new meaning. Through blogs, there are many monetizing options, where you can easily make money, even without Google. Affiliate programs and Google alternatives are ruling the blog monetization world. They offer something that Google doesn’t have whether it’s Google’s slow process or their high minimum payout rate.

Unfortunately, Google is still one of the most popular for monetizing blogs. It has a very strict TOS, which haunts many people to this day. They have a high minimum payout rate that is very hard to get past buy if you are a beginning blogger. Of course Google is adequate for your blogging if you know how to use it, and have been in the “business??? for a while, otherwise you can get a quick kick from Google for “breaking the rules.???

Affiliate programs such as click bank, or Amazon are much more helpful in this type of world. Instead of making .01 or .02 cents per click on ad sense, you are much better of making money through commissions from affiliate programs.

There are also other “click-through??? companies, like ad sense, that are not as strict, and if Google has scorned you, they are a great alternative to making money using the traffic to your website. One example is Chitika. It doesn’t really do good with normal blogs, but pays well for gadget type blogs like iPods and PDAs. With Chitika, you also only need to earn a minimum of ten dollars in order to receive payment, unlike the one hundred that you need from Google.A

It’s important to remember that you have more than one way out. Google ad sense, although popular, is not your only choice. Look around at some affiliate programs that might be helpful to you and can monetize your blog better.
