Contextual advertising is a way of advertising which is used
to target ads to specific keywords. Going deeper, Actually

many others use this method of Advertising.

You can also Sell your Blog’s space to
Advertisers Directly, for doing this you should
display a banner having “Advertise Here” text
in it so that Advertiser should contact you and
pay you to display his ad on your blog.
The Price of Advertising depends upon the
Advertisement size, traffic and niche of your
blog or website. Some people really earn too
much using direct advertising like
Problogger.

There are many other networks who allow to show
their advertisements in Text Links, You just have to
signup to those networks and Paste the snippet code to
your blog’s HTML area.
These Link Ads work in the way that they are
controlled by a system which recognizes the keywords
in the text and places a link in that keyword,
Whenever user hovers his cursor on that keyword that
advertisement pops out and when ever user clicks it
Publisher or Blogger gets Money.
