Your big blog can earn you $50,000 on top of your current revenues. This is no joke and it’s not some dubious get rich quick plan. If you give me three minutes and read this post with real advice from my experience, you will see that I’m actually willing to guarantee this income. You will be required to open your mind a little bit, talk about your concerns, and eventually place in-text ads on your blog, but this is now easier than ever and with some optimization, would not affect your community of readers. If you’re not ready yet, I would at least invite you to discuss this with me. So, are you willing to listen?
By now, you already know what In Text ads are. Simply put, they are double underline links on your blog that upon a mouse hover open a bubble with an ad inside. When the mouse is moved away, the bubble disappears. Only upon a click, the reader is redirected to the advertiser’s landing page and you get paid. You should also know – by a quick Google search – that they can add on top of your Google AdSense earnings anywhere between 50% to 150%, depending on several factors. In Text ads are not merely an AdSense Alternative, they are an AdSense Supplement. If your blog is monetized well, you know this can be a lot of money. Then, what’s stopping you? From my experience, it can be one of the following reasons: (1) community objections; (2) poor past experience; or (3) emotional attachment to content. Let’s review them one by one.
“My returning readers and community are very sensitive to ads on my blog and I’m afraid they will object to in-text ads.” This is the most common concern among big bloggers and it can easily be mitigated. First, keeping the integration transparent and sharing with your readers the importance of the new ads for supporting your blog as a business should be enough. Second, from my past experience you will soon learn that only a tiny minority of readers would actually be bothered by the new links on the text; the double underline links don’t interfere with reading more than regular hyperlinks. Third, and most important, you can remove the ads for your sensitive community by either letting them opt-out through the ad network (this would place a cookie on their computer), or by setting the ads to appear only for search engine traffic or for users who are not logged-in. In Text ads are placed on numerous blogs and your readers are probably used to them, and for the few who are not, you can still offer the same content without the ads.
“I tried in-text ads two years ago and was disappointed by low revenues and a script that slowed down my blog.” Well, Google AdSense wasn’t perfect on day one as well. Every new technology has to mature and in-text advertising has done so during the past two years. If you choose correctly among the leading in-text ads networks, you would be amazed by the improvements. Higher revenues, no slowing down, flexible control over the ads. You can easily set your ads to a minimal number of links, customize their graphic appearance, and even get 70% revenue share to guarantee significant earnings. If you tried in-text before, I recommend that you try it again to see the difference yourself.
“I keep a strict dividing line between my content and paid-for ads.” This can be understood and it’s even important for the integrity of your content. But let’s face it, the contextual ads surrounding your content today are very tightly related to the content. Google AdSense is doing a remarkable job in making sure that the ads match the text. Why doesn’t this bother you? Because your readers know the difference between ads and content. This is also true about in-text ads, which are now served to over 500 million users every month, and online dwellers have grown to recognize them as ads. It could be that you’ve just worked so hard to produce your content, that you can’t bear the thought of external links on it. You’ve become emotionally attached to it. If this is the case, you can also set the ads to appear only on posts that are a few days old, and thus let the time difference heal your feelings.
I wrote before on how much you can earn with your blog. I tried answering objections to In Text ads. The past year has yielded amazing results with many thousands of bloggers integrating In Text ads. And yet, some big blogs haven’t joined yet. What’s stopping them? If you have additional ideas, please comment below. If you have a big blog yourself and you’re still not convinced, drop me a line through the About page – I’m looking for insightful discussions to learn more about this. If you take my invitation to talk about this, I’m willing to guarantee you a no-risk trial with thousands of dollars guaranteed in return. If you have a big blog, with 2 million page-views monthly, that number of $50,000 for your first year is a done deal. What do you say, can we talk about it?
