TIME-STAMPED SHOW NOTES:

  • [00:27] Today’s Topic: Should You Sell Ads on Your Site?
  • [00:50] If you are selling ads on your site, people are leveraging your site and making more money than you are.
  • [01:30] Neil used to think ads were useless.
  • [01:42] However, his friend who runs Astrology Answers monetizes by selling astrology-related items and ads were great additional revenue.
  • [02:21] It’s important to test this out.
  • [02:35] Neil doesn’t monetize in India, so ads could be a way to generate extra income without hurting his revenue stream.
  • [03:45] Test out ads to see if it will help, but don’t use it as your main source of income.
  • [04:10] That’s it for today!
  • [04:15] Go here to see how many downloads the show is getting. Also rate and review to help us meet our goal of 1 Million downloads per month. Hopefully, we’ll see you at the live event in L.A.!
