Blogs can generate an extra stream of income. Once your blog has grown to a point of recognition, you may find you have people trying to contact you regarding sponsorship offers.

You might prefer to keep those same blog posts to yourself to promote your own products or services. What if you could sell just two sponsored blog posts every week for $30 per post. That could represent $240 a month extra income in your pocket. Imagine selling that space on every post you write and writing five posts a week. That could mean a boost in income of $150 a week, or an extra $600 each month. The possibilities for sponsorship are endless!
