I have recently learned about monetizing online. I have a website where stay-at-home dads can connect with each other, learn about local support groups and just meet and have fun. This website started out very small, but in the past year, my membership has tripled. The cost is becoming too much for me to bear alone. I learned about online monetization from one of the members and realized that would be very beneficial to me. My first step was to add a donation button to my site. About thirty percent of my membership has donated at this point. If another twenty percent begin donating, I will be able to keep my site ad free.
