How to monetize a website
After buying a site, sooner or later the question of monetizing the site arises. For the most profitable work, we recommend showing Search Engines that your site was created for people, and not for making money. Then monetization will be more profitable.
The monetization process must begin with the selection of a system with the help of which this process will be carried out.
How to choose a monetization system
We have already written above about which method is best in which situations. this is what you should be focusing on. If you have a young site with zero traffic, then you don’t need to shove the site in Google Adsense in every possible way. You can really make good money there, but it’s too early for you.
Besides, it is worth considering the moderation process there. Moderation is very strict there and we recommend (especially in the case of auto-filled sites) before adding, temporarily disable auto-filling, add a couple of articles… Then your chances will greatly increase. After approval, you can continue to work as usual.
As soon as you decide on the system and add your site there, you will receive special codes that you need to place on the site. Premium sites often have built-in systems for more convenient placement of ads on the site. In the case of exchanges of links and articles, there is often manual placement. The system will receive requests with a task and you perform them manually.
Other recommendations
Try not to advertise the entire site. Place only necessary and thematic ads. It is not necessary for a culinary portal to advertise perforators. Similarly, try to post links and articles on the site. Keep it thematic.
We also recommend reinvesting part of the funds. It means that with each link you buy, you lose link weight and it is desirable to compensate for it. We recommend that after the purchase you have 3-5 links and buy 1-2 links to the site yourself. It will only be a plus.
