Hello everyone. I hope you guys are doing great.

Today I'm seeking your help because I feel stuck and can't find a way out. So, I have a blog in the home improvement niche with roughly 100 blog posts. I have 91 informative articles along with 9 commercial ones. Most, if not all, of the commercial articles, have recently been published. The blog has been running for almost a year and a half and gets between 200-250 unique visits daily, mostly from Google.

The issue is that I don't think it is generating enough money. The site is monetized via Ezoic Ads and the Amazon Affiliate program. I have around 7.5 dollars in EPMV on Ezoic, and Amazon income is basically non-existent ( a few dollars a month only). Based on your experience and knowledge, is there a way to boost the blog's revenue?

Thanks in advance, and I wish you all a great day :)
 
Publish more articles, generate more traffic, find good cpc keyword with low volume
 
Try mediavine or adthrive. They’re better for blogs lately, in my opinion. Where is your traffic coming from? Mostly US?

Install the Ezoic plugin & have it auto-generate your ad placeholders. Switch over to Revenue Focused.

Try long form content. Longer, image-rich articles, and/or affiliate reviews.

Yeah, most of my traffic is coming from the US.

Outside of what I already mentioned there, seriously consider switching to Mediavine or Adthrive. I know people that have at least doubled their session RPM after switching.

Off the top of my head, also try to enable mediation & ads.txt manager.

Thanks for the advice :)

I tried something a bit weird with Amazon a few months ago and it proved itself very effective. I link to relevant products, but in vague ways.

I really like cleaning my cheeks with this face cleaner. It also helps with restoring moisture to the skin.

Just make sure your sentence makes sense (if mine didn't it's just because i'm not familiar enough with such products). Link from either a wierd place in the sentence or from one of the high selling benefits ot USPs of the product. This way, you get more clicks and you get your cut out of everything your users buy in the next 24h. Seeing what they bought will also help you with ideas to write articles about other products your users buy.

Hmm, that's interesting, thanks.
 
share your blog on niche related subreddits, or other social media plataform
 
If you would do paid, would you do it for an e.g. affiliate review article, to try to get sales from the affiliate program?
I rather do it targeting an info article (like a pillar post - ultimate guide, case study, or something similar) that has internal links to an affiliate review article.

Update 2 or 3 well-researched pillar contents with high-quality images per month and 2 blog posts per week. Share your blog post on social media. Keep updating. Target $50+ price products.
 
Find low competition keywords, publish more blog posts and get more traffic.
 
Need to update the content and also share it in social media to get audience
 
I wrote about something that is trending nowadays in my niche, traffic went up 20-25% the last few days
 
Find the posts that bring the highest EPMV and then publish similar articles to these.
 
It is always a very simple formula: To increase the earnings for the blog, you can either:
  1. Increase the traffic (while maintaining the current blog RPM).
  2. Increase the blog RPM (and earn more with the same traffic).
You've had this blog for a year, and hence collected decent amount of data in Google Analytics and Google Search Console. Spend enough time studying the data.

Try to understand which kinds (categories) of articles bring which kind of traffic, and which kind of keywords you rank for easily, and which you doesn't rank for at all...

Once you understand these patterns, the next 50 articles you write can bring twice as high monthly income as the 100 articles you have online already, just because you now have the data and they help you understand the niche better... That means with half the effort you'll triple your income.

Move on from there. Publish the next batch of posts, collect data again, learn, improve your processes, repeat... There's no magic here really :), but it takes work to grow an income of any blog....

Then a day will come when you will have traffic levels to join one of the premium ad networks, and your income can double or triple overnight. But you first have to get there :)
