Services can be classified as anything from selling your work as a freelancer (through these blogging jobs sites) all the way to coaching people through the same career path you’ve built for yourself.
Put simply though, this is where you’re trading hours for dollars—so it’s not the most sustainable way to build a large business from your blog in the long run.
However, it can also be very lucrative, especially if you build up a raving fan base and people are banging down your door to work with you. That can justify charging a premium.
Affiliate programs
Another very easy to get started with making money on your blog, is through affiliate programs. There are affiliate programs for literally every blog niche out there that you can think of—from Wordpress plugins to obscure camping equipment that’s sold on Amazon.
The basic principle of affiliate marketing, is that you simply place a link in your blog posts referencing a product and when people purchase through your link, you earn a commission (at no extra cost to them).
Most affiliate programs have a low barrier to entry, and you often don’t need a ton of traffic in order to get started either.
But generally speaking, the more traffic you have to your blog posts, the afghanistan phone number material affiliate sales you’ll be likely to generate. Here are a few examples of articles I’ve used to earn substantial affiliate commissions from:

Physical and digital products
Products, both physical and digital, are also smart options to make money with through your new blog.
Digital products are a lot easier to get started with as you can make them yourself (such as an online blogging course or writing an eBook) and market it to the readers on your blog.
Physical products take a little more time and money to create brand new.
However, you can start with dropshipping, which is where you launch an online store (from a new page on your blog) and you don’t have to keep any actual inventory yourself.
You can also work with a wholesaler to develop your own brand using white label products where you just put your branding on their product.
