Three Revenue Streams for your Blog

I'll categorize various revenue streams into three major categories :

1. Per impression revenue

Here Best option I believe is Google Adsense.

2. Per Click revenue

Here Best option giving a better than double eCPM than Adsense is Widget Bucks.

3. Per Successful click revenue

This could be either Google referrals, or Amazon affiliate, or any other affiliate like CJ which is appropriate for the niche topic of your blog.


Any Blog which is lacking in any one of the above streams is earning suboptimal.
