There are a lot of ways to earn money on your webpage or blog. How much you earn is dependable of these three factors:
First factor is your traffic
How many visitors do you have each month? If you have one hundred you probably earn less than a web site that has ten thousand visitors.
Second factor is how you earn money.

Webshop
You can start your own web shop and sell things. This is the hardest way to make money, but you will keep all the profit for yourself. One word of advice if you are going to start a web shop: sell stuff that you like or are interested in. It makes it all easier and you will be able to answer questions from customer better. If you don’t want to have all the wares in your garage,
Third factor is target group.
The target group is your visitors. If you have a web site about computer parts, you have a very specific target group. And to choice ads that apply to them is easy (computer related ads). But if you have a web site with funny movie clips from YouTube, then it’s harder to pick your target group. Now you have to test back and forth and see what works. Maybe it’s DVD-movies, books or fashion.
Conclusion:
Since all of the above is free, just try! If you don’t make any money, try something else. And you won’t be a millionaire the first month. You have to work to get more traffic to your site, and more traffic is often more money.
Good luck!
