To realize your blog&#8217;s full potential you need to:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Maximize the quality and frequency of blog content<\/strong> &#8211; Produce lots of quality content for your readers to read and for the search engines to index.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Maximize blog traffic<\/strong> &#8211; Efficiently and effectively promote your blog (see <a  href=\"https:\/\/www.adplugg.com\/blog\/how-to-promote-your-blog\" title=\"How to Promote Your Blog \u2013 5 Simple Steps\">How to Promote Your Blog \u2013 5 Simple Steps<\/a>).<\/li>\n<li><strong>Maximize blog income<\/strong> &#8211; Read on&#8230;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Blog Income Maximization<\/h2>\n<p>The goal of blog income maximization is to earn as much as you can from each unit of ad &#8220;inventory&#8221; on your site while keeping your site free of ads that might be off-putting or annoying to your readers.<\/p>\n<p>To maximize your blog income, you need to look at all possible sources of income available to your blog.  These potential sources of income include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Display Ads<\/li>\n<li>Text Based PPC Ads (Such as Google AdSense)<\/li>\n<li>Affiliate Ads<\/li>\n<li>Paid Links<\/li>\n<li>Sponsored Posts<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>NOTE: See <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adplugg.com\/blog\/how-do-bloggers-make-money\" title=\"How Do Bloggers Make Money?\">How Do Bloggers Make Money?<\/a> for more details on the above blog income sources.<\/p>\n<p>To maximize your blog income you&#8217;ll want to utilize all available channels and always go with the best paying channel (when you have a choice).  You&#8217;ll also want to try to keep mindful of the user experience (UX) and keep your ads beneficial to the user and tasteful.<\/p>\n<p>You&#8217;ll quickly find that display ads pay the best. Furthermore display ads where you&#8217;ve sold directly to the advertiser pay the best within the display ad channel (versus network ads).<\/p>\n<p>So in general, to maximize your blog income you&#8217;ll want to sell as much of your ad inventory as possible to advertisers who will run targeted display ads on your site for a premium price.  Ad inventory that hasn&#8217;t been sold directly can be filled with ads from other channels\/sources.
