Looking for ways to make money online? Business Owl has come up with 101 ways to do exactly that! Number Two on the list – be a virtual landlord.
What is a Virtual Landlord?
Virtual landlords charge brands and organisations to promote products on their website; just like renting billboard space in a physical environment.
How Does a Virtual Landlord Make Money?
Virtual landlords earn money online from:
- Banner advertisements
- Advertorials
- Sponsorships (“This article is brought to you by…”)
- Classifieds
- Ambush ads (pop-ups and auto-runs).
How Do I Become a Virtual Landlord?
If you have a well-designed, well-maintained website with quality search engine optimised web content which attracts high volumes of traffic, then you have the potential to become a virtual landlord! Create a rates card for promotion space on your web site (include info about your traffic and audience) and a ‘Contact me to promote your product and service’ link. If you want to be more pro-active about making money online, contact potential advertisers and let them know about what you’re offering.
