In the expanding journey to make money blogging, I have decided I would experiment around a bit on my blog to see the different ways on how I can diversify my earnings and maximize my income. The make money blogging topic does not have a lot of high paying keywords like a lawyer, debt, or bankruptcy blog would. This means that clicks on my Google Adsense would earn me less money than if it were a debt blog and the click was to a “get out of debt” ad. meaning it is a lot harder for this blog to make money with Google Adsense than it would be for different blogs. To counter this problem, I am now experimenting with a new advertising agency called Adtoll.

Adtoll is a relatively new advertising network that started in June of last year. Adtoll has a very large hill to climb to compete with the big names in the industry that can afford to pay high rates. Adtoll is unique in a sense because by being a relatively small company they can make large business decisions in a fraction of the time. This allows them to stay unique and to develop creative monetization techniques for bloggers like myself.Adtoll allows publishers to make money by selling ad spaces in many different formats. They provide the standard formats, video advertisements, and are even developing “peel away” advertising. Adtoll provides publishers the ability to choose exactly what kind of advertisements they want displayed on their blogs. They allow you to choose age restrictions, topic restrictions, and even allow you to set your own pricing.

Adtoll offers a 75% payout rate which is extremely high for a new advertising agency. Google Adsense is said to only give out 40-60% of their share, meaning you may have a 15 to 35% increase in the amount of money your blog makes every month.

Adtoll gives every publisher a rate cardlet. A rate cardlet is basically your sales page. It displays all of your stats that advertisers want to see. This includes your Alexa rank, weekly clicks, average pricing, etc. You can see my rate cardlet here: Mixed Market Art’s Rate Cardlet.

The best feature that I want to emphasize is that Adtoll is not a contextual ad network, which means you are allowed to use it in combination with your Google ads if you would like. The only requirement is that your Adtoll ads cannot look like your Google ads, which should not be a problem.

I will be running Adtoll now on my blog, and to celebrate this I am offering huge specials on my advertising deals. I have cut prices to advertise on my blog by nearly 80%. You can now get the full banner at the top of this blog for only $20 per week. To see the other advertising specials, please visit my Advertiser page.
