How to Monetize Your WordPress Blog with Steempress
I was going through my feed yesterday and came across a post written by @chronocrypto about Steempress. I read, digested it and downloaded the plug-in
One of the most frequently asked questions by bloggers is “How do I Monetize my blog?”, And most times the average bloggers only has the option of internet advertising ( Google AdSense, Ad networks). Some bloggers are able to earn a lot from internet advertising if they have enough follower base because these adverts only generate revenue when people see or click on them. Some other growing bloggers do not earn from their blog because they do not have enough follower to view their ads.
THE STEEMPRESS SOLUTION
Steempress is a WordPress plug-in that enables WordPress Blog owners to post content directly to the steem blockchain from their blog. By implication,authors can get paid in steem and steem backed dollars for posting content on their blog.
The benefits of using the Steempress WordPress plug-in are:
Authors can get paid for writing content
Rewards are received per post (that is, you don’t have to wait till the end of the month or to reach a certain threshold amount as is the case of most Advertising networks. Whatever you earn on a post can be withdrawn after 7 days.)
Authors get to have dual visibility ( posts can be seen both on their blog and on the steem blockchain)
Authors are rewarded for their post (@steempress-io account has been given 1 million SP for this purpose)
Steempress does not hinder the display of other ads on blog
