How to Make Money with a Movie Website

View Comments February 15, 2010 / Posted in Movie Affiliate Programs, Movie Website Ownership

Making Money with a Movie Website, proper website monetization, is not as easy as it sounds. Many think sticking a couple of ads on their site does the trick. That is not the case. I made that mistake in the beginning. Competition is high. Internet money making is hard but the powers that be have streamlined the process…somewhat.

It all comes down to what you are advertising, is it appropriate for the audience of your website? If the answer is no, you should take down those ads immediately. They are wasting valuable space and your click/conversion rate will be very small if you get any at all. The type of ads you show should be focused on the type of website you have. Since we are talking about movie websites, duh, your ads should be movie-centric and movie related. Read More »

Many people have or will comment on a website or weblog at some point in their life. When they do, they will most likely be met with this: Name, Email, URL, regardless if they are using a commenting system like Intense Debate or Disqus. We have all seen Name, Email and URL when commenting on someone’s website before.

Most have never considered using them to advertise themselves.

This is unfortunate because it is an opportunity for free advertising. I read on a few prominent blogging websites about this, employ it myself, and have seen it work. Now I will let you in on this little trick of the trade (its not really a trick).
