My journey need suggestions & some help. Thanks

Hi all community members, I have been trying to get into IM for past few months, already Started my journey.

can't post link to my journey thread.

I need some help and suggestions for monetizing my recipe blog.

It would be a great help if some of you can share any forum lists of some good forums in Recipe niche.

Also any other monetizing method apart from books you would recommend??

Thank You

you can find thousand of new recipes via google search!
The best way to monetize your blog is google adsense and amazon

Use Amazon plugins like EasyAzon or AutoAzon, instead of books you could offer the untencils that are needed for each recipe like pots and pans etc along with ingredients and of course books.

You can find from google search.
