A few months ago, I added a new feature to my blog-- Blogads. I wasn't sure what I would think of it, but since I had a nice amount of traffic (average 400-700 visits per day) and had been asked by a few small companies if I would allow them to advertise on my blog, I thought I would give it a try. The results have been more than satisfactory.
For those of you who love to blog and would like to "justify" your time and effort by actually bringing in some extra money through your blog, I highly recommend you consider signing up. It is a nice sort of residual income with almost zero work after the set-up.
With Blogads, you are completely in control. You have control over what ads run on your site. You can choose to either accept or reject every ad that is purchased on your site. You also set your own prices. And, you choose how many ads you want to run on your site at any given time.
If you are a small business looking for inexpensive advertising, you should definitely look into buying some Blogad advertising space. Not only are the prices extremely reasonable (many of the smaller blogs only charge $10 a week for an ad and as little as $40 for a three-month block of ads.), but you also can buy in very small quantities to test things out and see what works well for you. You can also check out their mini-networks and purchase a block of ads for a week or month on blogs with a similar audience and focus.
