Monetize Traffic: How To Make $1 From Every Pageview
Did you know it is possible to make money from website traffic…. every single website traffic your website receives can be monetized and you’re about to discover how.
Some really popular websites generate an excess of 100million page views monthly in website traffic. Others drive around 500k+, while some others rake in 50k to 100k per month.
And these websites are not the ‘Google.com’, ‘YouTube.com’, ‘Facebook.com’, or Wikipedia.org’s of this world.
An average monthly visit for any of these websites above is counted in tens of billion page views every month.
Yours may be way higher or lesser than the average figures. Or just at the same level.
But…
Think about how much $1 from every single visitor a website with, say, 10k unique visits will amount in a week, month or year!
Then think about if that is achievable (?).
Do well to read the difference between page views and visits/visitors.
This post covers how to convert website visits to money, so let’s dive in.
How To Make Money From Every Visitor
1. Make Money through EMAIL MARKETING
Any visitor you can get their lead can make you not just $1 but more.
This is straight to the point the best way to monetize any traffic to your website.
You may be wondering how possible or easy it is to make money with leads.
If that was a question, the answer will be, very possible and much easier than many other methods.
The flow looks like this,
Deliver few valuable emails, then one sales pitch and a call to action.
As simple as it may sound, it works. Because most of the time, the receiver is a ‘potential customer’.
That means the user has interest even before signing up to join your email list.
The email simply triggers an already existing want and any potential customer that doesn’t buy a product or service they really need, obviously lacks purchasing power (not interest).
2. Make Money through BANG-UP CONTENT
To monetize your visits, every visit either 1 or 100 or even 50k+, you’ll want to transform those visits from ordinary visitors to engaged readers.
With each sentence leading to the next, and the next… to the next paragraph.
It pays more than a dollar bill to have an engaged audience base.
An engaged audience earns you returning visitors which in turn allows for steady website traffic which boosts your display ads earnings and allows for increased chances to sell more.
Simply put, once you have that, the rest of the strategies below can work optimally.
With bang-up content in place, you can find a product to promote (more on it below) and draw traffic or leads to that.
Ads revenue pay increases, personal products can sell more, etcetera.
3. Make Money through AFFILIATE PROMOTIONS
With a commission-based monetization method for your website visits, you quickly raise the odds from just $1 to $50+.
Obviously, you can’t possibly sell to every visitor on your site, but with a $1 per visit target, when 1 out of 100 visitors in a week places an order, then you’re almost hitting the target.
In a month’s time, you should be netting $1+ per visitor.
Well, you don’t even have to limit your potential to only hitting a target when it’s possible to do more.
The whole point here is to make the most you can from every quality visit, without affecting user experience or your reputation.
4. Make Money through DISPLAY/VIDEO ADS
Unlike methods that require product sales to make you money, display Ads are guaranteed to always make you money.
For highly engaging sites, 1 visitor can give you 5 to 10 page views per day.
At such a rate, you will make probably more than $1 from one user within the next three months.
Essentially, depending on website niche, more visitors always translates to more money (but more is depending on the niche, demographics of visitors, and location).
It’s amazing how easily you can boost your revenue by increasing your traffic.
Also, the better ads perform on your website, the more money you can easily earn.
5. Make Money through SPONSORED POSTS
This is one of the advantages of owning a website that gets many visitors.
Upcoming businesses and bloggers do not mind paying for a sponsored placement on a website that could drive lots of traffic to their site.
At the same time, you make money for owning such a website.
And it’s much easier to get a post to sponsor. Simply head over to FIVERR and make a gig for the service you want to offer.
You can decide to create the post for sponsorship or the clients do.
As long as you have the traffic to prove their investment is worth it, you have a business; and that’s all to it.
6. Make Money through OWN PRODUCT/SERVICE
Being an affiliate or owning your own product is almost the same thing, if not that…
… You own 100% of the money made, or
…. Split the share to have marketers on board, and instantly give your product leverage to sell more.
Any strategy you work with does not change the fact that you own your product, and can decide what happens in terms of pricing.
In line with the target to make $1 from every website visit, again, not everyone will buy (at least not at the same time).
This goal is achievable when at least 5 out of 1,000 visitors in a given month buy from you.
Clearly, 5 sales from a thousand visitors, is fair enough deal, but still a fraction towards a goal that may need 100 sales out of every 1k website visitors to be constantly achieved.
To help this, your sales copies need to be right on point and convincing.
But first and foremost, you are better off, targeting the right set of audiences.
By the way, if your site is stagnant or not making any money at all, here…
Possibly, The Only 9 Reasons Your Site Is Not Making Money
So many six-figure blogging success testimonies out there, but you and I can’t even afford hosting bills.
In your heart of hearts, you know that things are not going well with your blog, and it could only be a few, or all of these 9 reasons that your blog is not making money.
Here is the deal!
Blogging and making money from your blog is all about trial and error.
That is why you need to know the only 9 primary reasons that your blog is not making money (Every other thing is secondary).
Good news is, together with the reasons for “blog not making money” are the solutions on “how to make money blogging”.
With no further ado, lets do it right away 🙂
1. Work For Someone Else First
The major reason your blog is not making money and has remained stagnant is because of you!
So, work for someone else first.
Yes!
Instead of having all the passion today and loosing it all the next day; find a freelance site to engage yourself. Thank me later.
Not only will you master copywriting as a skill, but will unconsciously build-up some well-to-do attitudes and discipline that every successful man on earth has.
You will sure start meeting deadlines, setting and getting goals. Work even when you do not feel like doing it, also will get used to the art and science of writing better copies.
Every freakin time you invest will pay off.
2. Nothing Can Take The Place Of Persistency- Not Even Talent
Being persistent means to stay or continue to do something, even when it seems difficult.
This simply tells that hard times will come. And it is very obvious.
Afterall, why will everyone not be into it if it was that easy. I mean, so many people started a blog the day you did, not everyone is reading this post.
They all have fallen by the way side. That clearly tells the story.
Talking about staying and continuing to follow your passion, you’ve got to drop your multitasking skills and pick up focus.
Focus is an asset you will surely need, for persistency to work for you.
Impatient bloggers weed themselves out. Generous, patient, persistent bloggers succeed – BloggingTips
So pick up your blog and get it running. This time, faster than ever.
3. The Money Is In The Copy You Write (Not the Links You Share)
Have any of those gurus told you this? Probably not.
And that is why you got to listen to me, even though I’m not yet in the three-commas-club ($000,000,000).
When I read any blog post, I look for something.
I try to grade the post. Is it just another blog post, or a researched content, or what I call “a sales copy in disguise” (?).
Those sales copies are the real copies. Visitors are likely to buy from your links only when your content stirs it up.
So whenever you write a blog post, you should ask yourself, “Why do they want to read this”?.
It is not enough to litter your affiliate links or Ads all over. But make sure you have established these with your post in your potential readers:
- A charming headline (too compelling to overlook)
- Attention and Want (in your intro)
- Desire and willingness to have, and
- An actionable action.
4. More Traffic is = Possibilities
You probably are not used to this one. We tend to believe that the money is in the traffic.
While that may partially hold some water, I have also experienced a case where there are over a thousand of views/visitors with no sales.
Sure is that the larger the number of traffic to your blog, the better.
The general rule is that only the blogs with quality traffic can make money from blogging.
5. You Do Not Have An Email List
Even when you’ve got the traffic, you are just half way gone. Getting visitors is just half baking.
To make a passive income blogging (that is, having a constant revenue rather than a stagnant blog).
Full baking is when you have your visitors intact in an email list.
So, if you are not working on building out your email list already, you got some work to do.
Build it now, while your blog scales.
6. Performance of Your Site
The performance of your blog is another hindrance to making money from your blog. Because it affects your ranking for organic traffic.
On the visitor(s) end, it really sucks. So your blog is stagnant for not keeping up.
There is no particular yardstick to measure the performance of a blog site. Worthy of note though, are:
- Blog Speed
- Uptime (Target 100% uptime wehosts).
- Bandwidth and storage
7. The Appearance and Feel of Your Blog
Humans are visual beings. Our heart always desires what our eyes admires.
Oboy! Do you remember high school, we all had a crush on beautiful girls.
Which means, once I am attracted to something, I am 80% likely to check that out.
That is also true about blog designs.
Do not judge a book by its cover, but we are all guilty of it.
So many bloggers care a little about how great our blogs may look. It is time you started fixing things.
That alone is a major road block to monetizing your site.
8. You Are Jack of All Trades
Being an affiliate marketer does not mean you should start promoting anything that pays.
Afterall, that is why you have a niche- to have a focus and direction.
Do this.
Find a product you have tested or trust enough to share to others for years. That product or service that your audience will enjoy for a lifetime.
Put all your energy into promoting it.
9. The Way You Go About Blogging
Blogs are what we make them. To some people, it is just another means of making quick bucks.
While to other folks, it is a business.
The later are far way on their way to success.
If you see and do your blogging as a business;
- firstly, you will sound less spammy,
- secondly, you will build trust and
- lastly, you will make (lots of) money.
My final thoughts on this and one-liner advice will be; do not be like everyone else. Be Your Self At Its Best!
