Concerning the latter, you certainly don’t need a blog to pull it off. Anyone can sell an ebook, for example. But it is just so typical for bloggers to do these things, because they tend to be more successful when you have an audience, that I decided to include them in this section. Still, if you don’t have a blog, you just need to think of another way to reach your target audience (like a forum, or a simple landing page). 1.2.1 Contextual Links and Sponsored Posts If you have a blog there are many ways you can monetize the writing portion of it, such as reviews, sponsored posts, and more. This is actually how I started earning serious money online. Often, companies will pay you to link to them on your blog because they want the increased exposure as well as the “link juice” that they get from an inbound link to their website. Be careful with this one because in some instances it can violate Google’s TOS, which, in the most extreme circumstances, can result in your website being removed from the search engines.
