The best way to monetize website #3: Sponsored Posts
Sponsored content is one of the most popular forms of advertising because of one simple reason: visitors are more likely to see the product/services as more of a review rather than direct ads.

This type of ad is highly efficient in a few ways:
- Sponsored posts do not disrupt the user experience and are easy to consume.
- You, as a publisher, will host sponsored content along with their organic content.
- The advertiser generally provides you with his service/product to review for free. Thus besides the additional revenue, you also get some really useful niche products and services.
How much money will I get?
Sponsored content brings you income directly from the third parties – advertisers. The amount you get for a sponsored content varies enormously based on your website’s particular niche, its size, your site popularity, and, last but not the least, the volume of your social media followers group.
How to find companies that will pay for sponsored posts?
When you think about sponsored content, you may first think of big brands with big budgets. Start with smaller national companies and brands – they may be quicker to respond to your pitches.
But first, get well prepared:
- Create a media kit telling publishers important facts about your blog audience (e.g.: the amounts of traffic, the relevance of your audience, etc.)
- Identify businesses in your niche that are located close to you.
- Build up a portfolio and some experience with local businesses.
Once you build a sizable audience and a minimum portfolio for your website, companies in your field, as well as marketing and PR agencies may just come and knock into your virtual doors with offers.
Form a good relationship with your partners, do consistently good work, and then, just as with affiliate marketing, you’ll get more work and income in the future.
