Comment on Ask HN: Best way to monetize how-to content?

Comments

Set up a website with blogs and embedded YouTube videos. Do import some of your blogs to Medium (but dont expect to get paid much from them). The real money lies in Google Adsense implemented on your site and YT videos.

In my experience (2 niche blogs), nowadays, the real money comes from Amazon affiliates and direct ads. I gave up from Adsense 2 years ago.

AdSense pays out $2-$3 CPM

Other ad networks pay out $20-$30 CPM

Add are, sadly, a good way to monetize

Who are the ad networks paying $20-$30 CPM for tech ?

i am curious too...

Is this for video ads or banner ads?
