The first is to get more traffic.
To truly monetize your website and create an impressive revenue stream, you first need to make sure your website is bringing in traffic.

The more traffic you have, the easier it will be to monetize your site.
Here are a few things you can do to get more traffic:
- Use SEO best practices
- Make sure your site is fast
- Post to social networks
- Paid advertising

Monetization Strategies
Now, the reason we are all here is monetization.
Below I will list some of the easiest and most effective ways to quickly monetize your website.
You can implement any of the methods on your own website, or even try several of them together. Find out what works for you and makes sense in the context of your site.
Advertising
Display advertising is one of the most traditional ways to monetize a website. It is the process of advertising a product or service through visual means on publishers' websites, blogs or social media platforms.
Option A - join an advertising network
Many people immediately think of Google Adsense. There's a reason why it's the largest ad network in the world, giving you access to ads that have been reviewed and approved by Google. This means there are no issues with the quality or relevance of the ads.
However, getting approved by Google Adsense can be quite difficult, especially for small websites.
Google states: “For your site to be successful with AdSense, it must have unique content that is relevant to your visitors and provides a great user experience. Before you sign up for AdSense, we recommend that you check your pages to make sure they are in good condition."
Option B - work directly with advertisers
While you can use an ad network to easily manage display ads, you can also sell banner ad space on your site directly to advertisers.
The advantage of this method is that you bypass the intermediary (advertising network) who takes part of the money, you negotiate the price and terms yourself.
The cons are that you will have to do a lot of extra work. From finding and approaching potential advertisers, to negotiating prices, negotiating agreements and terms, and handling administrative work such as invoicing.
You can use an ad management plugin that will help you easily insert ads anywhere on your website. This helps optimize advertising placement and make the most efficient use of advertising space.
Affiliate marketing
One of the most popular ways to monetize your WordPress blog is through affiliate marketing. This is especially true for bloggers or any website with a lot of content.
Many brands offer affiliate programs where you can sign up to promote a product or service using existing marketing materials or links with a unique URL. If someone signs up for this product or service using your unique URL, you will receive a commission.
For example, let's say you created a post about the 10 best hand sanitizers and then linked to the product through an affiliate link. Whenever a reader clicks on your link and purchases that product, you receive a commission from the company.
It's a simple concept that makes sense. When you have an audience that trusts your opinion, they are more likely to buy the products you recommend. So why not make money along the way?
