Subscribers

Capture e-mail addresses and get people to subscribe to your Blog feed early. Two-three years from now (if you're good) you might have 50k email list and 50k RSS Subscribers. And that will become a big valuable asset. Trust me.

Monetization

It is time to gather the fruits of your labor. I'll suggest don't do it early. Wait some time until your blog get on the track. There are basically three main methods to get money out of your Blog:

• Placing ADS (CPC, CPM, CPA, CPV). Basically you need click, page view, action or video view in order to get paid.
• Promoting affiliate products.
• Selling you own products (ebooks, membership websites, services - design, coding, coaching, etc).
