Monetize Your Blog Using Postpresso
As a blogger I am always looking for new ways to monetize my blogs. Many bloggers spend hours upon hours a day creating post of great product ideas, super party decorations and foods, crafty creations for anyone, deals and steals, and more!! After all the work is done it would be nice to have some return for all the hard work, correct? I have found a super easy creative way to monetize using Postpresso.com.
What is Postpresso
Postpresso is an affiliate site that allows you to create posts around a wide assortment of products and earn CPC {cost per click}. The benefit of earning CPC when using an affiliate is you are paid when a reader clicks on the link. While most other affiliate sites only pay you when a sale is generated after they click your link. Plus, Postpresso is free to use! There are no fees to you the users.
Postpresso is partnered with PriceGrabber who currently has over 3,500 merchants’ products you can earn money using CPC. This makes for a wide range of products available to promote no matter your blogging niche.
What Sets Postpresso Apart From the Rest
What takes the longest when you are preparing a post?? The images, right?! I feel this is what sets Postpresso apart from all of our other affiliate programs we use as bloggers. Of course we can log-in grab a pre-made image from a few of our affiliates however, this is the SAME image every other blogger is using also! Plus, those images can look a bit like advertisement spam. As bloggers we want something to engage our readers!
Using Postpresso you can create a unique image for your post!!! Keep reading…….
How to Create an Attractive Postpresso Post
The Postpresso website is VERY user friendly. First you click ‘New Article’ at the top. Then you can type in the subject or use their easy search for products by category feature. Then, it takes you even further into Sub Categories. The example below shows the Sub Category of ‘Babies & Kids’.
Tip: Make sure to click the ‘Load More’ option when your search appears. It only shows the first few selections first. You can also hoover over the item to see the CPC payout of each item.
Remember you are getting paid per click! Compare shopping works great! This gets their interested peaked to check out what they could pay more for and how they can save. So, even if they are not going to buy that $1500 jacket, they will click to check it out! Then, voila you earn money!
While you are creating a post you can move images around and text to different positions. You can choose to have a collage at the top, photo set, photos set with links (no article), no collage or photo set, and even include a poll at the bottom of my article. The poll is a great way to get your readers interacting within your post.
Now on to the special part………
Creating a Photo Set
After you have created an article. You can click on the photo set button. This will automatically pull the images you used in your article for you to add by dragging then over. Then you can add text, borders, stickers and more! This is the perfect solution to the spammy same illustration everyone is using!!
You can create a great Pinable illustration for a monetized post!
When you are ready to post. Click the preview (the eye) button to grab the code. If you are using wordpress make sure to download the plug-in first. This will be located just above the code. You could also choose to send the post automatically to your site.
Easy Starter Selection
If you are new to Postpresso and perhaps want to see how one of their articles will perform on your site you can try out one of their many pre-made post for you. These work great for when you do not have a lot of time to write. Just log-in and grab a post! You can also see estimated earnings on each post.
You can find these by clicking ‘Articles’ at the very top. Then ‘Starter Articles’ on the second row.
Please, for you own SEO of your website make sure to change up at least the beginning paragraph of the post. We don’t want Google upset with you for posting content the same as other websites.
Also, Postpresso send out emails with suggestions and new articles they have created for you!

As part of the re-boot trend this year, I’ve been shopping various monetization means and I hadn’t really considered this one. Your post makes it sound easy to navigate and implement, so I’ll drill down a bit and this may be the method that works best for what I had in mind. Thanks!
