Advertising and Affiliate Programs

Bloggers looking to make a little money to help cover the costs of running a blog (i.e., domain name, hosting, theme, etc.) have a number of options to generate some income. I’ve broken them down into advertising and affiliate programs, Christian and secular.

Advertising

Christian

• Beacon Ad Network

Secular

• BuySellAds
• Google Adsense: pay per click

Affiliate Programs

All of these affiliate programs pay a commission on sales trackable to your affiliate code except for Westminster Books, which pays per click.
