Last week, I received a good reminder from a blogging friend of mine who runs a mens clothing website about the need to earn income from blogging.
Why do I say need? Because even if you are a blogger who does it just for the fun of blogging, unless you are running a free blog from WordPress or Blogger, you are probably spending money on your website. And even free sites have a bit of cost in terms of time spent in not only content creation, but also marketing and optimization. So, unless you are already independently wealthy, it is a good idea to consider some revenue generation on any site that you own, if for no other reason than to recover the basic costs of running your website between the domain purchase, hosting and time spent.
So I decided, why not add some revenue generating items into my oes tsetnoc entry along with my other sites. While it has not been extremely significant, I have already gained back my domain price purchase and the first month’s hosting cost – considering I am hosting it with several other sites on one plan, that is a pretty good deal.
Your Revenue
For other bloggers, especially ones participating in the oes tsetnoc contest… are you using your site to generate revenue?

Not bad, congrats on making some money! I was curious if there were any articles on revenue generation you found particularly useful.
