In the last few months I started testing a service called Luminate which puts a banner on your normal site images and you earn CPC and eCPM from those banners. It has become a small side passive income and I think it has great potential for those who are looking for passive income and just wanting to monetize their blog traffic without selling something.

I am totally agreed with you on this point which you mentioned like that in your post “”Image Advertising Benefits for Bloggers and Small Business”" i am sure this option will play an important part for those who wants to result in their favor.
Too much information, thank you for this information and i am looking forward for the second part of this interview.
Hey this is something worth trying for, this is a win-win situation for both publishers and website owners. Both parties can earn more exposure and profit form this as well. I’ll surely anticipate the other parts of this post. Good news!
Man, Ray and Chas really know their stuff, don’t they. I am planning on doing more with image advertising after my site gets and overhaul.
