Monetizing Your Blog: Escalate Media Affiliate Network

by Lisa on March 30th, 2010

Today’s company that helps bloggers make a little bit of extra money is one of my favorites.  It’s very similar to Logical Media, although this company has fewer offers.  Fewer offers to wade through is a good thing, in my opinion, because fewer offers means fewer spam-like offers!

What I particularly enjoy about Escalate Media Affiliate Network is that they have a lot of different coupon-based offers.  For my site, which is all about using coupons to find the best bargains, this is a wonderful thing.  Remember when I said that one company had a higher pay-out for Coupons.com?  That company is Escalate.  Through Escalate, when someone click on the Coupons.com link on Fantabulously Frugal and prints out coupons I get paid 45 cents per printing session.  Logical Media only pays 40 cents per session.  It’s a small difference but if you sign up for multiple affiliate networks you’ll definitely want to watch to see where you can make the most money.

There are other non-coupon offers as well.  For instance, whenever someone signs up for the the Savings Toolbar from cash-back shopping site ShopatHome, you’ll earn $2.50!  Or you can promote well-known tax filing website Taxact.com {which is actually what I use} and receive $2.50 whenever anyone signs up for a new account.

It has been my experience that the deals on Escalate are legitimate and they’re relatively high-paying.

The application to fill out isn’t too long, although I don’t know what their requirements are for being accepted into the network.  Your blog might have to have a certain number of posts, or it might have to have been in existence for a certain amount of time.  Unfortunately they do not accept everyone.

Posting ads to your blog using Escalate Media is quite easy.  Again, as long as you know basic HTML {or just how to cut/paste and then where you want the HTML to go} you should be set.  Ads come in a variety of sizes, including basic text ads so you can post them on your sidebar or in actual posts.
