I was surpirsed to discover that the word "ezine" wasn't mentioned when discussing how to make money from your website.
I used to run a ezine, buildt it from the groud up to around 800 members (worldwide) single opt in. I got money not from promoting affiliate programs (although many people do) but from selling ad space. I'd publish it once a month with 3 ad slots top, middle and bottom.
At the start I filled these with ads for other ezines. Ad swaps they'd run my ad and I'd run theirs. I'd always get a few new subscribers from this. The ezine never got the the stage of 100% paid ads as there was always one or two ad swaps in there. I was however making $3 a month for the top ad plcement and a few times $5 when I sold both the top and bottom spots.
Could have been done better though, that said it did bring me around $30 for its year being published.
The best part of it was every month I'd get about 30-40% of the subscribers visiting my old website. So it did work to bring in repeat traffic.
Have any of you got a newsletter for your website?
