If you have been blogging and making very less money from it, you should try to get sponsors to your blog. It is not very easy to get an advertiser for your blog. Problogger Darren Rowse, once wrote on how to get advertisers for your blog. You should have good content, good traffic and also targeted readers. If you have all the things stated by Darren, then you should be having a couple of advertisers by now. If you still don’t have it, then the following might be the reasons why you are not getting them (My guess).

Professional Theme Design
When advertisers come to your site/blog, they see the theme you have. Your blog should have a professional design. You would have seen the increase in number of sponsors for John Chow, Daily Blog Tips and few other blogs when they changed their theme to more professional looking one. If you have a professional theme, your advertisers will be happier to sponsor your blog. How to get a professional design?
1. You should know how to design a theme
2. This is by far the best option. Choose a company and get a unique and professional looking design.
Once you have a good theme design, you are set to get new sponsors. Offer them the most visible space.

Good Logo
When you start a blog, you try to limit the spending. You might have a good theme but a poor logo. This will also affect your blog from getting sponsors. When you limit the spending, you don’t worry about the logo. You don’t want to spend money for a logo. But the need of a good logo can be understood only after experiencing it. If your blog has good content, good theme and a poor logo, then head over to the Logo design website and get a professional looking logo at lot cost. Now, your blog will look more professional leading to increase in the number of sponsors. Though this cannot be given 100% assurance, you will most probably get a couple of advertisers by having a professional theme and logo.

Fast Loading Time
If people visit your blog, it should load very fast. People don’t have the tendency to wait for something. So if you don’t want to lose your readers any more due to this reason and henceforth if you don’t want to lose your sponsors, then remove the clutter from your blog. Always see to that, your blog loads faster.

You might have been wondering for so many days on why you didn’t get sponsors even though you had good content. This is the answer. Try following all the free steps and you might get a sponsor or two. Even after doing all these, if you are not getting a sponsor, then you must have over priced the advertising rates. Use the Text Link Ads calculator to know how much you can ask for a text link in your blog. Visit big blogs and see at what rate they offer the banner ads and find the amount you need to ask your advertisers for banner ads. 99% you are on your way to get a couple of advertisers.
