I'm curious, out of the different ways possible or ways you actually do make money off your site(s), what do you use? I am talking specifically about dollar-generating sites. What methods of money-making do you use to either keep your site running or make something on the side -- do you get enough site revenue from advertising? Do you sell products? Let's talk about the different methods you use, I'm anxious to hear them!

My favorite is the Art.com affiliate program.

See www.ClickArt.com for an example.

The way that Art.com allows link building is excellent and their print selection is unbeatable.

I also have it on www.TeenSpan.com.

I just checked out Art.com, it looks pretty good. Do you know if they allow you to upload your own photographs or "posters" and sell them?.

sorry for the delay...

no, I don't know. They respond to email, so ask them. Better yet, join up thru ClickArt.com and then ask them. It's free.

Hey Duck!

Lewco here - I use them also, but I haven't had much luck with them as of yet. I use them for www.ChineseDragon.com, www.animal-pictures.com, www.funny-posters.com and a few others but haven't received many sales - even though the hits to art.com have increased from 600 per month to about 1500+ this month.

Any suggestions?

**domainduck** · 09-11-2002, 03:13 PM

Hey Lew, nice to hear from you. I'll tell 'you' what I know.

I don't make much... Less than $200 last month with 5200 per month uniques. Looking the same this month, but hey - I'm the salesman, err salesduck, so it's up to me. The holidays are coming. Get ready.

Duck poop - you asked fot it - Take it or leave it:

Change the home page regularly, submit to the engines every month, cross-link between your webs, where practical.

Art.com is so flexible that your Funny-Poster idea is a perfect Niche. But personally, I'd would eliminate any sign of anything other than posters from the main view.

Like ClickArt, rotate a { funny } theme every month. Like 10-12 new prints. And make your affilate links a little less significant and related to 'funny' or 'posters'. So many programs, so little time - there must be other related links that you can use instead of hmmm, Let's see, Do I want to buy a funny poster of get some insurance? goink!

Finally, what about that navigation bar that I use, so if someone wants a different print, the click is right there. Feel free to copy mine and just change the colors and the affilaite number... NO, wait. Leave the affilate number alone... yeah, leave it alone.

I hope this helped and didn't peeeee you off.

Take care, Lew.

P.S. the other two websites, didn't work.. Huh? :weird:

**Lew** · 09-11-2002, 06:39 PM

Duck,

I ALWAYS welcome advice. I would be nowhere without advice of my fellow websters

Those other two must not have worked because of the way I posted them here - this should work better without the "." (comma) between them.

www.animal-pictures.com
www.chinesedragon.com

I will try your suggestions (when I get a free moment)

Thanks again, glad you are making some $$
