Not every blog is approved for Google Adsense or even if they are approved, they hardly make $100 per month from it. The same case also goes with affiliate marketing. You need to be patient with affiliate marketing. So, if you are not having luck with ads or affiliate marketing, how do you make money blogging? In this blog post, I will show you exactly how you can make money from blogging without ads or affiliate marketing.

5 Ways to Make Money from Your Blog without Ads and Affiliate Marketing
Write sponsored reviews
Everyone depends upon good reviews in this era of digital purchases. If you love trying new products and write about it, then you can earn money by writing sponsored reviews. Choose your pricing for sponsored posts wisely. The amount of money usually depends on how much traffic you get every month, the quantity of your social media and engagement. Never think that if you have a small number of followers, you can’t go for sponsored reviews. Companies/brands look for engagement and talk about their product. As long as you can make people talk about the product you promote, you are good to go!
But just remember that you should never go for a free product in lieu of your review. It may sound harsh, but the bloggers who write articles about brands for free, cheap, or just for the product, do a disservice to themselves and other bloggers. If bloggers can’t make money because others will work for free/cheap, it is a disrespect to everyone out there. Blogging is a full-fledged industry right now and if you are not getting paid for what you do, it’s time to sit and analyze your role as a blogger.
Write articles for other blogs/magazines
Writing articles for other magazines or blogs is a lucrative way to make money blogging. You can earn anything from $5-$200 from single blog post writing. I wrote a detailed post on how to make money by writing online articles last year. You can check the guide here.
Write an eBook
If you have expertise on a subject and want to share with a mass audience, write an ebook. Ebooks are one of the most dependable ways to make money blogging. You can host the book on your blog or Amazon Kindle. You do need to invest lots of time creating an ebook. If you have great articles on a particular topic on your blog, you can elaborate the articles and repurpose them as an ebook.
Sell an online course
I am a big fan of online courses. They are great to make money blogging. Creating a course is little time consuming but once you finish it, you can sell it as long as you want. You do not need to be an expert to be course creator. If your course solves a problem and helps the targeted audience, it is good to go. Any topic in this world need help and that’s why any resource which is helpful to someone is saleable.
Sell your expertise
Majority of my income comes from my coaching sessions. I teach people to improve their writing and blogging. I also offer one-to-one coaching to new authors who want to sell an ebook. Like me, you can also sell your expertise. Check out my services here.
