Since some weeks ago, I have listened a lot of good comments about BlogRush by the amount of traffic that could be generated by this.
Basically, BlogRush is a widget you can install in your blog by using Javascript code as usual (previously you must sign up for a free account and your blog will be reviewed). Once your blog is approved, this widget will display some titles on your blog with links to other blogs related to your topic. But, at the same time, you will earn a credit per pageview generated on your blog (a page loaded). And each credit will allow to your latest post title to be shown 1 time on other blogs with the widget.
In addition, you can refer people to Blogrush and the traffic generated by your referred blogs will allow more credits to your site, and more impressions of your latest post. So, as more credits you have, the possibility to get more traffic to your site is bigger, because people can click on your latest post title coming directly to your post.
If you are interested, please visit the BlogRush site (I recommend you see the video first).

Brian Clark from Copyblogger just launched a free report about “How to (Really) make money with online content” and I have to say that it is really interesting because he have a point of view you can use to reassess your thoughts about making money from blogging.
The report is short (24 pages) but really substantial. And there, Brian talks about being an early-adopter in the new Internet trends in order to maximize the opportunities to generate wealth in our lives with an online business.
He is very critical of those business models that depend entirely on third parties (like Google Adsense) because these business types could disappear overnight someday due to “the tyranny of Google” or something similar. On the other hand, he stress the potential of revenues coming from business models based on content you can sell many times.
You can download the report here (as a PDF or, if you prefer, as a MP3 audio file).

Google has just launched a new option for the Adsense users with the purpose of generating revenues: Adsense for mobiles. Initially it will be available for the publishers in the following countries: US, England, France, Italy, Germany, Spain, Ireland, Russia, Netherlands, Australia, India, China, and Japan (available in the coming weeks).
Logically to take profit of this opportunity you should have a version of your website that is “mobile-compliant” or build it If you haven’t already by means of the use of appropriate languages for mobile like XHTML, WML, or CHTML.
The installation and the operation is similar to Adsense for traditional websites. The advertising is contextual and the system places ads according to the content so the advertising can be as useful as possible for the target audience.
If you live in one of the listed countries you will find the option of Google Adsense for mobile in the Overview section of your Adsense account.

Chitika has launched iBought: a new Facebook application that allows Facebook users to alert their friends about the new products they have recently purchased. In this way, their friends have access to the best deals of the purchased products and rate the purchases (thumbs up or thumbs down!).
And now, the interesting part. You can make money by promoting this new Facebook application in your website by means of a banner and a referral code.

Some years ago when I was working for a dot-com company, we bought an expensive software called Open Adstream (powered by Real Media, I think) and that was a good software with a lot of parameters, functions and utilities. But we were a small company and this software monopolized an important part of our advertising revenues.
Amazingly, nowadays we have a similar and absolutely free software: OpenAds. This is an open-sourced solution (PHP) with a optimized delivery engine for ads in your blog or website. You can control everything related to ads by creating or updating campaigns.
Even, you can deliver appropriate ads depending on a geographical location (Geotargeting) and make prioritisation of ads for your featured campaigns. Other characteristics include: Direct Selection to specify keywords against tags, providing better targeting across the entire site; revenue maximized by tracking visitor behavior from click-through to transaction and reports produced using real-time information; basic reports simplified, including graph creation.
If you are going to to monetize your website by selling some ad spaces to customers and you need to control some advertising parameters, this program is for you, and without spending anything.
