It’s no secret. Once your blog starts becoming popular and reaching your desired audience. Advertisers come knockin on your web door wanting a piece of the action.

The plug-in is called CrankyAds. You can see how it works by looking at the right side of my website. Look for the banner squares that say advertise here.
