There are some advantage to prefer direct advertising to known affiliate programs or text link. For first, can happens that affiliate programs like AdSense, kontera or Chtika could go down in history in the next future, leaving you and other publisher without cash. The second reason is that programs as Text-Link-Ads, or ReviewMe are little secure after the Google PR penalty. Third, a part of the income (50%) will go to them.

So, below I put a collection of 7 tips with pratically everything you need to know about how to find Advertisers for your blog.

1) Keep a List of the old advertisers. When you start with a new advertiser, I suggest you to keep record of your previous advertisers. It’s more simply to get advertise again from them because they had already advertised on your site.

2) Include a low number of banners. The ads no work well if you include many banners stored in same page. So, becomes very hard to convince a reader to become an advertiser

3) Make a great offert. When you create a new advertising it’s always a good idea to make a discounted rate and however below than the normal price. I’m sure that readers will not be able to resist.

4) Good quality of content. The value of a website and its ability to attract blog readers (that are your potential advertisers) depend on its overall quality of content. Bloggers make a lot of mistakes when they are overwhelmed from the amount of time it takes to generate content. One of the important things I’ve learned is make a spell check of blog posts.

5) Bring traffic.There are many ways to increase valuable visitors to your site by using some SEO strategies, Social networking, or links exchange. Remember, If you don’t have traffic to your site, it’s similar to opening a store in the middle of the desert! No one will find you. Get at least 300 unique visitors.

6) Find your competitor blogs. Click on their ads and get to know their website. Send an mail to Advertisers that are in similar category as your blog. They are your potential advertisers too. You can have a chance that they would want to advertise on your blog as well.

7) Blog stats. It important to provide a brief summary of your blog’s stats. Creates a page about the new advertisement that you are introducing and which includes your unique visitors, alexa traffic, page rank etc. and your irresistible bid.
