Web Site Monetization Methods ?

There are many different ways of making money from a web site. However the two principle ways are:

• Affiliate Programs
• PPC advertising i.e. Google Adwords

Affiliate Programs

Affiliate programs were up until recently (2004) the number 1 way web site owners started to make money with their websites. Although affiliate programs can be very lucrative they are not the easiest method to use for beginners.

Contextual Advertising i.e. Google Adsense

Contextual Advertising (Google Adsense) is by far the easiest method for website owners to begin to monetize their website. It is the easiest because all you need to do is to paste a small bit of code (Google provide it) into your web pages and Voila-it's done.

There is no code to update, no special offers to promote; you just keep writing web pages and include the Google code. You don't need to monitor multiple affiliate programs and cash lots of small checks. You just get a single check from Google.

Not only does Contextual Advertising generate revenue for the website owner it also provides valuable resources for the website visitor, as the adverts are target adverts that relate to the web page content ( so called contextual ads).

So if you haven't already started with Contextual Advertising then your letting money slip through your fingers and denying you are visitors access to related resources.
