We’ve seen lots of tutorials on how to earn money blogging from a blog without ads. But realistically, is it possible?

The two most popular ways to monetize a blog are:

Google Ads: Pretty much everyone is accepted. No wait times, and easy setup.
Selling services: There’s always a need for writers or virtual assistants that can make businesses’ lives easier.
Both of those methods have huge disadvantaged:

Google Ads are extremely cheap. You won’t likely earn a lot, even if you have lots of traffic.
Selling services means you work 24/7, hardly taking any vacation. It is hard to plan your life around a constant need to do something to get paid. It can make money but it is exhausting.
Are there any alternative blog monetization methods you’d like to explore?

Lisa: I like affiliate and sponsorships too. I believe that the value for value model will be implemented in the future, if we have freedom of expression.

Yes, I fully agree with Lisa. I fact, don't expect much via G Adsense, it's

infact mere peanuts.:-)

Lisa: I am still having Google Ads on my first blog on Blogger's Blogspot, but it is not much money to earn from it. I see the wave of the future with value for value and direct donations and support from your "co-creators" (commenters, readers, etc.).

Best Premises,

Martin

Interesting. I prefer affiliate and sponsored right now but things change rapidly.
