If you have your own website, then this is a great opportunity to make money on it. Even if the topic of the site has nothing to do with commerce, it can still be profitable. If only because it exists and can be useful to someone.
There are several ways to make money on your brainchild:
1. Placing advertisements on your website. Such actions are paid by the advertiser, and the advertisement itself can be anything: in the form of a banner, pop-up window, small ads with a picture, contextual advertising, etc. You can choose any option and place it on your website.
If you have a well-promoted and visited site, then you can make good money on banners, but small resources cannot boast of such success, and here it is best to choose contextual advertising (its content depends on the subject of your brainchild). If the site is dedicated to cars, then the advertisement will be filled with relevant information, which will be very attractive to visitors. Whatever advertising you choose for placement, first of all, you need to promote your site, because your earnings will depend on traffic.
2. Selling links and articles. By posting a paid link, you will receive a fixed profit. The website traffic will not affect it in any way. Therefore, if the site is relatively new and has not yet gained much popularity on the Internet, then this is the best way to start earning. The link is placed for a specific agreed period and is not permanent.
Instead of buying a link, you can purchase an article space on a third-party site. This has a special benefit - in addition to making money, the site is also filled with ready-made content.
3. Creation of a website for further resale. Each site has its own price. And the longer it exists, the higher its cost. The price is influenced by the quality of your creation, and its promotion, and the formed audience. The site must first of all be necessary for Internet users. You can create several interesting projects on different topics and make money on them. If they achieve a certain popularity, then it will be possible to think about selling them. Moreover, it is easy to find a buyer for a product in demand.
Do not assume that it will be so easy to make money on your own website. It takes time and a lot of enthusiasm to work. In any case, there are options for earning money, so you need to use them in order to reap your benefits.
