USD250 from Online Ads

I managed to sell some ad space at two of my sites for a whopping total of $250 per year. This is my first sales ever of online ad space. I did not find the advertiser but rather the advertiser found me.

After some haggling over the price ( I asked for $240 for the first site. This was bargained down to $150. I offered the 2nd site at $150 and this was bargained down to $100) So that is how the $250 sum came about.

The ad space was just a small one as it was mainly a text ad of less than 20 words.

Perhaps this is a start to me diversifying away from Adsense.

As a tip to bloggers out there, make sure you have a price list ready just in case advertisers start knocking on your door and you have no idea what is the "correct" price to ask for.

Hi there!

Congratz on your rent out! My first comment on your blog this is heh. I'm curious though. Which ad is it?

Oh btw, I hope you don't mind me linking your site to my blog? I've read it and I like your postings.

Hope you'd visit mine & if you like what you read, perhaps we could do a link swap?

Best of luck on your adsense endeavour. =)

Hope to hear from you.
