How I monetize (make money) my blog!

Over the past ten years, I discovered the power of being able to make money from content I produced. It was very important to me that the companies I became affiliated with, paid on time, had a variety of options. Such as pay per click, impression based payment, and affiliate referral programs.

Affiliate referral programs are my favorite for a couple reasons. The pay out is normally higher and most companies allow you to refer others and earn a commission based on what referrals make.
