Another money-making tack: affiliate links

April 14th, 2008

As you know, we’ve been plugging away with sponsored posts on various blogs over the last year or so.

The money can be quite good sometimes (we picked up $250 on a single post a month ago for example) but most of the time it’s around the $10 to $30 mark. Not that we’re complaining but once you’ve been paid for the article, that’s the last income that you get for it.

So, what we’re having a go at now is a fresh attack on the affiliate links through Personally Chosen which we’ve not really looked at for a few years.

In practical terms, we’re planning it as a series of product reviews much as we do for the sponsored posts but with the difference that there’s no upfront payout but, hopefully, an ongoing income from them. If we can get it right, there’s certainly big money in it as some affiliate signups pay over $50.
