Monetize Blog

I made my first wordpress blog, it is a imformation blog on the upcoming release of GTA, and i am now in the top page of google for a keyword, how can i monetize this blog.
my Adsense and Adwords are banned, i am trying to get my Adsense re-instated, however if that doesnt work, what else can i do?

SocialFanStar,

There are many alternatives to Adsense. They are Adbrite, bidvertiser, clicksor, infolinks, GumGum and Adhitz. Another alternative it to create and sell ads yourself. This would require much more work along with a good understands of your target customer and technical/design knowledge but I have seen people be successful with it. The advantage here is that you could keep all the proceeds. If you are savvy with analytics tracking you would also be able to offer some data on how your client's ads are performing.

Here are some links to good information on monetizing your blog,

Don't forget about promoting affiliate programs on your site. They can end up earning a lot more than adsense in most cases.

Iam noob to this, but start making adfly links & add a adfly page lock so that you earn when someone visits your page...
