3. Promoting Own Products and Services
Some bloggers promote their own products and services on their blogs. An author promoting a new novel on his blog would be an example of this. Another example for this would be a corporate blog promoting the company's products and services.

5. Paid Links
Paid links are also a form of advertising wherein bloggers are paid money to directly link to other websites and blogs.
Update: Note that paid links go against the Google Webmaster Guidelines. You are therefor advised not to accept money for creating links to other blogs or websites as this may lead to a Google penalty and all your search engine optimisation efforts may be undone.

6. Donations
Placing a "donate" link on their blog also seems to work well for some bloggers. If a blog provides content of great value then people might not be reluctant in donating a few dollars to the blog author.
