Brand-ready: To Do

1. Make sure your blog is PR ready and that the

information is easily found.

2. Think about what your readers are interested in -

where do they spend the most time on your site? Then

think about what you are most interested in and find

the overlap.

3. Create case studies of brands you've work with or

set up for yourself

Page 27: Monetisation: Earning an Income Online with Your Blog

Brand-ready: The Don’ts!

1. Don't make it hard for brands to get in touch with

you!

2. Don't inflate your blog stats because you want to

impress a brand.

3. Don't think that you can't work with brands if your

blog is small - instead think of what you can offer and

how a brand could benefit from working with you.

PRICING

“we charge $1500 for a sponsored post for Tier 7 (5000 UVs per month), then increase gradually, tier

by tier, to $8000 for Tier 1.”

“Why $150? If you are working as a consultant then the minimum hourly rate is usually about $100 an

hour. Most sponsored posts take longer than an hour and a half this to create and compile. For 5000-

10,000 unique visits to your blog a month, you could charge $1550. For a blogger with 30,000-50,000

unique visits a month, $3000.”
