Depending on what your blog specializes in, you may be able to generate a whole new revenue stream through merchandise.
Photographers can sell their prints directly to their readers. Writers and poets could offer custom made pieces of unique work. And anyone who has some cute little logo or any other kind of recurring motif, can develop this into a recognizable brand that can be emblazoned on just about anything you can think of.
Merchandise isn’t the only field that your blog could diversify into. For your loyal readers, and the people who pay attention to these kinds of things, you are now a valuable commodity. Whether you develop this through online workshops, consulting, guest-blogging, a book, or even TV and radio appearances, there are numerous viable and profitable ways for you to step out from behind the screen and give your blog a face people can connect with.
