Url Shortener is not recommended for blogs having a good fame and authority, as it baddens users’ experience with too many ads.

But at the initial level, it’s a very good option to earn small expenses.

20: Create membership page

Everything can’t be revealed for free!

Thus, if you have content in your niche which you can’t publish like a normal blog post, then you can create a premium membership page for your blog.

In which you can charge the user for accessing premium content which is not available anywhere else.

And if you have that damn good content, which people really need, then you could definitely earn a great amount through it.

You can set monthly, annually, quarterly or even weekly plans for the premium membership. Trust worthiness is one of the main factor here.

21: Selling Email List

As I said email marketing is one of the most used marketing technique nowadays, brands does the same for promoting their products.

But, the most important thing is having a good email list, therefore Brands keep on searching active email to promote themselves through email marketing.

And hence they used to purchase email list from others at a good amount.

22: PopUp Ads

Popup Ads is also a type of method in which third party advertisements are shown on your blog.

You can log on many websites like popads, adsterra or can search for the best pop ads, and can serve them on your blog.

Again, this method is only recommended to use at an initial level to make money from blogging, as it aslo baddens the user experience.

23: Domain Flipping

You can try your hand in Domain Flipping, It’s a business of buying and selling of Old/Expired Domain names.

You can buy some old and authority domains which are listed for sale and then sell them for even higher prices.

Online Marketplaces like Flippa have websites listed to be sold, Buying the best website, working on it and then reselling it at high prices even multiple times of buying price can be a very profitable business.

But it needs Investment as domain purchase is required first and there is no such guarantee that it will be sold at more price than we bought.

Having proper knowledge of the market, and domains could result in an insane amount of earning.

24: Ask Donations

Having loyal and genuine readers always results in more income.

If you have the same, then you can ask for donations as well to your readers who really read and love your content.

Gateways like Paypal allows you to add a donate button anywhere on your blog you want, and that too with no coding requirements.

Websites who don’t have any ad-network approved or doing anything which isn’t white hat, those sites use this method the most to generate revenue.

25: Paid Surveys

Brands keep organising online surveys regarding their products and services.

If you get sponsored posts, simultaneously there are great chances of getting an offer for a survey as well by the brand.

If you have a strong social network, then the chances become great of getting paid surveys.

You can get paid surveys for your Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter too if you have a genuine and larger number of followers.

26: Paid Giveaways

For Brands, promotion is their key to success, and for promoting they does various kinds of giveaway or trials for their products and services.

They approach websites, youtubers and various influencers for giving away their products.

You can also get those offers and can charge them for giving away their products or promoting trials.

27: Sell Courses

As I said, people enjoy learning new things and they pay for it.

If you have anything special or skills which you think you could teach others then
you can make and sell courses for your readers and sell them at a good price.

Again, the power should be in the content and the way of your teaching.

Ripon Sahaji – Tech Ripon (Youtuber and a Blogger) have made money in lakhs
through just selling his courses.

Trust worthiness is again the most important factor.

28: Promote Offline Startups

Just like big brands, some offline business also promotes themselves digitally through websites and social media.

They approach their local websites and social media accounts who are having a good number of followers and visitors.

And by charging them you can promote their offline business on your blog by giving them a shoutout or showing their product in your video/blog post.

By this you could earn a good amount of money and also can promote offline startups.

29: Create Resource Page

Just like me and other bloggers do, you can create a Page where you can add all resources with your affiliate links in it.

For example – Ankita Singla (Owner of Masterblogging.com) has created a resource page where he has added blogging related products and services like Hosting, Themes, Plugins, Softwares etc.

You can check his resource page here.

Similarly you could also create a Page like him and add resources relevant to your niche with their affiliate links.

This could generate a good amount of affiliate commission as it works for me as well.

30: Sell Blog

Many Bloggers just work on increasing their Blog Authority – As they take Selling Blogs as their business rather than working on it.

A high authority brand domain usually sells out on literally high prices in Auctions.

A Brand-Like domain name having high authority always acts as a high paying asset for the owner.

You can place your Blog to auctions on websites like Empireflippers to get the highest possible rates.
