Advertising/Marketing: Community Involvement (Make Money Through Co-Branding)
There’s no reason to compete with other sites (to be the first to post a new story) when the entire culture/online and blog community can benefit by working with each other through co-branding.
Greg Selkoe (pictured above) and Karmaloop became successful not from grinding (alone) but by being smart about it. Read and learn how you can do the same and make it happen with the artwork provided (for download) below.
This banner for my old site ran on Karmaloop shortly after I reached out to Greg Selkoe, the owner of Karmaloop.com. Now the leading online retailer for street fashion, with over 200 brands and some of the most inventive marketing strategizes I’ve seen.
You know what I learned from Greg long before this interview?
CO-BRANDING.
*This approach may interfere with the marketing strategizes or online campaigns of certain brands but that’s another topic, therefore, I’ll leave it at that.

I Live For The Money Advertising / Affiliate Program
Shop only with the top online retailers who offer the best selection, prices, and customer support. I am excited to work with and build long term relationships with each company. I will be sharing my experience to encourage visitors to launch their own sites to and do the same (cashing in those money checks is fun).
Google AdSense, Amazon Affiliates, Karmaloop Rep Program (KRP), Dita Legends and more.
Products/Advertising: Monetize The Site (Google AdSense Approved)
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.
