Depending on your blog's niche, one might want to consider advertiser's product rather than cash in exchange for ads on the blog.

I do have one advertiser that has tried in his organization to get us product but cannot so he pays us cash.

However, he is the exception. Most of our other past and current site advertisers will provide either totally free or significantly reduced price for their products to us in exchange for advertising space.

Why? Well, with product mark-up typically between 50 and 100%, it costs a manufacturer less net cost to provide free or discounted product rather than paying cash.

Thoughts?
