I started running Google AdSense yesterday as a method to monetize the site. The goal of this blog is to deliver a consistent amount of original content balanced with quality content from other sites. I truly love to blog and have a lot to share. If you see ads that pertain to products that interests you, do not hesitate to check them out. Your support is greatly appreciated. I would love to have this site running till I can’t even type any more.

Advertising with AdSense and other affiliate programs are proven methods of generating revenue for blogs and web sites. The ability to customize the ad banners to match with the color scheme of your site makes them almost fun to generate.

*I will only work with advertisers and allow ads to be served from companies who I already purchase from and support. Qualities I look for from an online retailer include a user friendly interface, wide selection of products, lowest prices, and fast shipping (free shipping is even better). With Google, their reputation preceded them. This is my first time working with Google AdSense but I am a long time user and supporter of other Google products (Google Search, Gmail, and Google Chat). Other affiliate programs I am excited to work with:

Amazon Associates/Amazon.com (find almost any product easily at the lowest prices)

Karmaloop/Karmaloop.com (the kings of online fashion retail with the best promos and selection)

- Various Commission Junction and Link Share affiliates yet to be determined.
