How are you doing with content monetization

Earnings have been 1/10th of what they were for performance bonus program. I’ve been entertaining the idea of doing a blog site with google ads but I’m worried it’ll stop recommending my page less due to posting links.

Yeah, posting too many links can hurt reach a bit. But if your blog adds value, it’s still worth trying. Just mix things up—reels, photos, and only some link posts. That way you keep engagement strong while building your blog traffic

it dropped recently a lot so is not something new you should learn how to optimize better and hope for best but is not much you can do as is a general issue
 
Posting links only reduces reach; a blog model with Google Ads is still viable, just combine linked posts with static content. For optimal results, keep the original post for normal algorithmic comment distribution, then place the link in the comment and pin it to the top. This method limits the visibility of the link and maintains distribution after the post receives initial engagement.
 
When posting, avoid including direct links so Facebook doesn't limit engagement. Instead, just post the content, then place the external link in the first comment of the post. However, posting links only slightly reduces reach, not drastically, so a blog model with Google Ads still works well. You just need to ensure you combine posts with links with pure content.
 
If you already create good content, turning it into blog posts can be smart. It's extra income that doesn't rely on one platform.
 
Generally, including external links might slightly impact reach, but it doesn't always reduce recommendations. The important thing is to maintain high-quality content and sustain natural engagement.
 
After Meta reduced rewards, income dropped across the board, so don’t rely on one platform. Blogging with Adsense remains a safe option if SEO is done properly and links stay natural. Diversifying revenue sources ensures more stable, long-term growth.
 
Placing links in your blog won't cause Google to lower your recommendations, as long as your content remains useful and doesn't violate any rules or be considered spam. In particular, if it provides value to your customers, it will still be recommended.
 
If you want to add more links, make sure they are relevant to the content your website provides; this will optimize your ranking.
