Many folks who try to make money blogging are often short-sighted in their monetary goals. At first glance, for example, Google AdSense seems to be the absolute best and easiest way to generate income from your blog, especially if you generate massive amounts of traffic. After all, you’re receiving hundreds of clicks daily, and they add up quickly. Ultimately, however, you’re trading $20 or $30 sales for 10 or 15 cent clicks. Although you’ll have more clicks than sales, simple math tells you that even if 1% of your clicks bought a product that earned you a $20 commission instead, you’d be doing $5 or $10 better than with AdSense. The truth is though, if you have a credible and respected blog, your income could be five or ten times that amount.
