For example, while most bloggers try to generate profit from ad sales, very few take this idea a step further by considering the following techniques:

1. Create Your Own Banner Subscription Program
On my social networks I have two featured rotations (example one) (example two); one is at the top for general business exposure and there is another one spotlight authors. I require advertisers to sign up to a monthly or quarterly subscription in order to include their graphic banners in these rotations.

2. Create Your Own Ad Network
I have several different websites that cater to women of color, so advertisers sometimes want the ability to have their banners featured across all my websites. For that reason I created the Black Girl Click Network, which is simply a rotation of banners that I have featured in the sidebar on most of my websites including SistaSense.

If you would like to create a subscription offer for advertisers you can consider:

• Featuring their banners in the homepage rotator of your blog (if you have one). If you do not have a home page rotator, review this post for recommendations on sliders you can add to your site. You can also review my web design services. I can either upgrade your wordpress theme or integrate a rotator/ image slider into what you already have.
• You can also review the Banner Rotator Script that I created if you would like to display a rotation of graphic banners on your sites header, sidebar, or footage.
