Chapter 6. Generating Revenue
In this chapter, we will cover the top plugins for turning your blog into a money-making machine, or at least to make enough money to buy yourself a beer or two. But keep in mind that it is possible to make a living from blogging; take techcrunch.com for example, which raked in over 2.7 million dollars in one year.
However, don't expect to become a millionaire overnight; instead you should expect to try out a few of these plugins to generating a little revenue and tweak your money-making strategies over time.

Promoting your art and design with Zazzle
