Default 6 Ways to Make Your Advertising Page Explode

6 Ways to Make Your Advertising Page Explode | Franklin Bishop | Blogging Millionaire | Blog Tips | Make Money Online

If you know me very well then you know that I'm not huge on selling advertising space. I would rather put up affiliate links and make much more money that way. However, a lot of people are making a lot of money off selling ad space. I have actually sold ad space on my other blogs successfully by doing what I mention below.

Dedicate a page on your blog to advertising. Even though most serious bloggers already have an advertising page, there are many bloggers that don't. I know right now I am in that group that doesn't, bu that is not the way I will be going about making money on this blog. For the bloggers who are trying to make money by selling advertising space then you need to include the following on your advertising page:

1. Explain What Your Blog Is About
Most people that come to your blog will want to click the least possible times. Just hoping that they will go to your about page is not enough. Just simply explain what your blog is about in a paragraph so they can't complain after they have already advertised.

2. Tell Them Why They Should Advertise
An easy way to get people to advertise is by persuading them to. Write a quick paragraph explaining why someone should advertise on your blog. The below ways will also help persuade people to advertise also.

3. Size of your ads
Make sure you know what size of ads you are currently accepting. Whether it is just banner ads or sidebar ads, make sure you let them know the exact size of whatever kind of ads you are accepting.

4. Include Page Views and Unique Visitors
People that are thinking about advertising on your blog will want to know how many pageviews and unique visitors come to your blog every month. This gives them a basic idea of the amount of people that will see their advertisement and possibly come to their own blog. They do not want to have to take the time to go and look themselves to see how many pageviews and unique visitors you are getting. Make it as simple as possible by telling them yourself. Make sure not to lie otherwise you may be caught and your blog will pay for it. Word-of-mouth advertising will become very negative and it is one of the worst things for bloggers.

5. Include Pricing and Paying Options
Include the price for whatever advertising options you have. Make sure to let them know what their paying options are. There are WordPress plug-ins that can set up an easy cart for you to sell anything on your blog. It is one of the easiest ways to sell advertising on your blog.

6. Show Where Ads Will Be Placed
Last but not least, make sure to show where ads will be placed. Some people just assume that they will be placed at a certain place on your blog. Do not let them assume anything. Take a screenshot of your blog and circle where their advertisement will be placed. Then place it on your advertising page so they will know for sure where the ad will show up. Then if they complain later that their ad was not where they thought it was going be then you can have them refer back to this section on your advertising page.

Decent writeup. Basically you should give the advertiser all the information they want on the advertise page, so when they contact you it's to give you money, instead of waste time with more questions
