Monetize Your Blog: May 2011

Running a blog is a lot of work. This post serves as a partial reminder on why I spend so much time here.

Welcome to month 5 of Monetize Your Blog. If you’d like to see what I posted for previous months, view all the Monetize Your Blog posts.

I am attempting to keep track of the places from which I have earned money solely on Freebie Spot. With this information, you should be able to determine which programs work best and decide if you would like to work with these companies on your blog. Please keep in mind that I only post offers which are relevant to my blog or to my life personally. I will not post something just for the sake of making a buck. Ever.

My little disclosure: I have tried not to leave anything out and have only excluded companies which may ban my account(s) for posting information (if you are one of these companies, simply email me and I will remove your link promptly). This is the lay-it-all-out honest truth which I have posted in the hopes of helping you make money on YOUR blog. Hopefully I can keep up with this and remember to post a new report each month.
