There are many methods to make money from your website. This entry is only going to be able to provide a very small perspective into the topic, and I expect that we will review it in more detail in the near future. Because of this I will just cover two advertising channels.

Google AdSense is probably the most well known and common form of context-sensitive advertising on the internet. These fairly non-invasive ads are suited to most sites, and attempt to provide relevant, targeted advertising to your visitors. Their new referral program brings some ability for self-selection of ads into the picture.

AdBrite may not have a network as large as Google’s but it does have some very appealing tools and features. Inline text ads, video ads and much more are all supported. They provide a great service and with their novel advertising medium offers, they are certainly worth investigating. AdBrite also offers the valuable feature of allowing your visitors the ability to bid for advertising space on your website.

As I said, this is not meant to be a comprehensive account of different online advertising methods. These two work well, and are certainly worth a look. In the future we will provide a much more detailed overview on some other advertising channels that may be of interest.
