Monetize Your Digital Content

DevHub is a brand new free online content publishing platform that has really impressed me. Like Squidoo and Hubpages, you build sites on DevHub using modules. But DevHub goes one step further. Instead of just building a single page, you can create complete websites within DevHub and even host your domain names with them.

DevHub has many modules available to build a great website. Some of the modules include text, pictures, RSS, widgets, money making modules (CPC and products), social bookmarking and video modules.

You can earn money with DevHub by adding the money making modules on your created content sites. It is a revenue sharing system where they will share the profits from your content pages with you. You can also earn more by referring new members to join.

Building a single page or complete websites is very easy to do on DevHub. Just drag and drop the modules you want onto your pages and customize their content, page template and colors. They also have a built-in Blog feature where you can create blog posts and insert them onto your sites.

Additionally, you can also add your own products or third-party affiliate products on your pages with ease and earn direct commissions yourself. There are no restrictions to promoting other affiliate products on your created sites.

In a matter of a few short hours, I was able to create these 2 websites on the DevHub platform -> Learn To Stop Smoking and Nicotine Patches.

I highly recommend DevHub to people looking to create multiple page websites to showcase their own products or monetize with their built-in revenue sharing program.

I am sure by now that everyone and their mother have heard about Google Adsense. Thousands of people are earning passive income with their content through Google Adsense.

If you have a website or blog, you can apply to join the program. Once you are approved as a publisher, you will be given a special code (customizable to fit your site colors and layout) which you need to place on your pages and blog. This code will display relevant Google advertisements on your sites and you get paid when a visitor to your site clicks on an ad.

The program is absolutely free to join and many top publishers earn several thousand dollars monthly with Adsense. Each time a visitor clicks on an Adsense ad on your website, you can earn anywhere from 1 cent to a few dollars depending on the value of each ad. The value of ads are not known and Google determines how much you earn per ad clicks on your website.
