You have probably heard that the best monetized blogs contain many different types of revenue streams. This is true in both mainstream and adult, and the reason is simple - you don’t want to put your eggs all in one basket. In addition to two or three main sponsors per blog, I’ve been looking at the many revenue streams that can be added to an adult blog (I’ll get to the mainstream ones once I have explored that side of the Internet more).

• Dating - This is one of the most common revenue streams I see on blogs. This is a non compete upsell that complements most porn blogs well - try to go for programs that allow you to target onto niche pages in order to get the most out of your traffic interested in dating.
• Webcams - This is another type of non compete upsell that is commonly used on adult blogs.
• Celebrities - Even niches that have nothing to do with celebrities, people are absolutely retarded over searching for their favorite celebrities, especially celebrity sponsors that show off their favorite skin shots.
• Sex Toys - While general sex toys work best on targetted sex toy traffic, advertising masturbation sleeves and other male sex aids are an effective non compete upsell.
• DVDs - Some people are really stuck on having a physical product in their hands. You can appeal to these types by offering a link where they can find DVDs.
• VOD / PPV Theaters might not rake in huge commissions at once, but they’re a great long term solution for monetizing traffic that simply refuses to pay monthly membership fees.
• PPC - There are quite a few ppc services that allow you to further monetize your site by selling clicked traffic.
