Our ex-PM Dr M is trying to make money through bloging too

Click to enlarge image.
I am surfing the internet and coming to an interesting article, it was about our ex-PM blog that he has set up and attract a lot of traffic who those still regard him as "god". Apparently he is making good money from the blog with the advertisement scheme. If take a look at the screen captured above, he is charging proton for the top banner of Proton Exora for RM12,000 for 7 days of advertisement. Just in case you are curious, the charges are as follow:

  • Side Box - 170px x 200px - RM5,000/month
  • Top Banner - 728px x 90px - RM12,000/month
And on the fine print of the Terms and Conditions.
  • Discounts available for advertising periods of one month & above.
  • All advertising positions are on rotating basis with a maximum of 5 ads.
  • Rates quoted above are on a per banner/day basis, minimum of 7 days.
  • For banner designs, a fee of RM70 per design will be charged. Design fees will be waived for advertising campaigns of above RM2500.
  • Ads in Top Banner & Tower Box positions will appear in the Main Page & Inside Page .
If you read carefully on the fine print that saying rotating basis of 5 ads maximum. A basic calculation without the inside banner, our "beloved" Ex-PM will be potentially earn up to RM185,000/month (approx USD51,000/month), and this is not including the inside page banner. I am quite sure this is the most "Money Making" problogger in the shortest amount of time.
