How to Make Money Advertising on My Web Site

1. Locate the space on your web pages where you will offer to place banners for advertisers. Banners are commonly sold in a number of standard sizes including 300x250, 250x250, 468x60, 728x90, 160x600 and 125x125.
2. Join an ad banner advertising service like AdBrite.com, BuySellAds.com or AdEngage.com. These companies serve banner ads for advertisers that can be placed on your website. Typically, publishers are paid by the number of ad impressions served.

3. Find the offers you want to advertise and place their banner ad code on your web pages. The ad service will maintain a record of each ad impression served and pay you on a regular basis.
Google AdSense
4. Join Google's AdSense program at https://www.google.com/adsense/. Google allows website owners to place AdSense pay-per-click ads on their websites and shares in the revenue generated by each click on the ads.
5. Determine the sizes of ad blocks you want to place on your web pages. AdSense provides a wide range of different ad block sizes for you to choose from.
6. Customize the colors and borders of the ad text to fit your website color scheme. Integrating your ads within your website will usually result in higher click-through-rates and generate more revenue.
7. Copy and paste the code provided by AdSense into your web pages. AdSense will determine the ads served by matching ads with the content of your pages.
Affiliate Marketing
8. Join an affiliate network like ClickBank.com, NeverBlue.com or ClickBooth.com. These companies offer a wide range of products and services for sale on an affiliate basis. For every sale generated by traffic from your website you will be paid a portion of the sale or a fee for generating a lead.
9. Identify the affiliate programs you wish to promote. Select programs that appeal to the demographics of your website visitors in order to maximize your revenue.
10. Place ads on your website. Most affiliate programs provide a selection of banner and text ads available for use by affiliates. Choose the ads that fit the ad space available on your website and that appeal to you.
11. Split-test the ads on your website. Rotate two ads in the same ad space and measure the response of each of the two ads. After you have received 30 clicks or more on each ad, you will have enough data to decide which ad converts better. Remove the other ad and run the winning ad full time.

How to Build an Advertising Website

Use unique content strategies and design to drive traffic and gain advertisers.
1. Determine the industry category for the website. Define the specific category or categories that will have appeal for prospective advertisers. For example, a site about furnishing a first apartment could target furniture manufacturers, home-décor and home-improvement retail stores for advertising. Make a list of every type of company and advertising prospect to target.
2. Determine the advertising category. Sites developed for consumers are business-to-consumer (B2C) sites. Those targeting businesses are business-to-business (B2B) sites. Focus on serving one or the other or having two separate sites so that the content and advertising is appropriate for specific target audiences.

3. Design the website based on the industry, advertising and audience category. A site for consumers should include relevant content and information that connects with the products being advertised. A B2B site should include timely news and updates to help industry professionals stay current on trends and topics. Consider adding an RSS news feed to stay abreast of articles in trade publications and to receive press releases from trade associations and major companies. Hire freelance writers who understand search engine optimization (SEO) to create content that is rich in keywords to increase chances of getting listed on major search engines.
4. Incorporate affiliate advertising, which allows you to advertise another company's products or services and receive commissions in return. It is better to launch a site with some type of advertising, even if it isn't initially paid for. Affiliate advertising allows that opportunity and can generate revenue each time a site visitor clicks an ad (pay-per-click) or redirects to a site to purchase an item or service.
5. Explore drop shipping. The site can also generate revenue through drop-shipping relationships. This allows you to advertise products and services without having to actually warehouse items or fill orders. The site visitor places the order on your site, and you send the order to the respective companies for fulfillment.
6. Set advertising rates. Determine how much you will charge for various online ad formats (banner ads, skyscrapers, rich media videos, etc.). Develop a media kit or rate card that prospective advertisers can download as a PDF from your site under a special tab for advertisers. Explore sites in your category to find out the going rates. Understand that until you generate sufficient website traffic, you will have to offer low rates.
7. Promote the site to build website traffic. Use e-mail marketing to drive visitors to the website. Purchase e-mail marketing lists to promote the site to consumers and businesses when it is ready to launch and 'go live.'
