Selling Advertisement On Your Blog

Once you have your blog running and you are in a position to sell advertising space on your blog is the best way to monetize your blog. To sell Ads in an automated way is the best way, rather than receiving emails and then negotiating.

Deciding your Advertisement slots

Before starting selling of ad slots, you need to decide the slots and the price for the slots. Once you decide the slots and decide the pricing, you should add a advertisement sale page where you can explain the details, terms of service clearly so that there is no confusion after the sale. You can add links to the sale page so that the interested advertiser can create the ad and make the payment. You can create different banners type like text ads or image ads with different sizes.

Automating the sale of Ads

Having an automated system to sell ads and manage ads is very important. There are many ways to server ads like Google Ad Manager or you can use self hosted adserver using OpenX. But Google Ad Manager does not have a system to automate the process, but there is a tool called oiopublisher which does the work for you. This is an excellent wordpress plugin which will do all the work for you including the payment procedure as well as reporting to your customers. I have been using this plugin for the past 1 year and it has done a good job for me. Other advantage of having an automated system is that you can manage ads efficiently and the advertiser will be comfortable and will be impressed with the system when he gets the reports emailed automatically.

With this plugin, you can serve image ads, sell text links, paid reviews and even secure downloads. It does the work of payment through Paypal and is very stable and worth its cost.
