Earning Money Online

Today, celebrating my 40^th birthday, it’s time to pass on a lesson I learned when I was about 19. I had just learned how to run a bike up in Sweden – more precisely in a small village called Blentarp. Somw very close friends at the time had decided it was time I learned how to run a bike. I had never needed it before because I always walked to and from school, and had never needed any bike.

When it comes to earning money online, it’s important to say you should never put all eggs in the same basket. Systems come and go all the time. If you rely on one single line of online income, you are bound to get burned once it disappears. It happens all the time. People rely on banners or ads from one single publisher, and when that publisher goes down, YOU are at the losing end.

Banner blindness was introduced as a term by the people who wanted to make you believe Google Adsense was the only way ahead.

Whether you choose Amazon ads or other relevant banners, the key is relevance. Once you bring ads for things that are interesting for your readers, you are matching needs with opportunity.

This is Marketing 101.
