Everybody out there at the moment is trying to make money from their blog in one way or another, and one great way I found recently was via matched.co.uk, who will pay you up to £75 per month just for putting their ads on your sites.

This is great, but the way they do it is by allocating you one ad per page, up to 5 pages per site which can be a problem for wordpress users:

1. Because the wordpress editor interferes with the ad code if it's pasted into a post
2. Because if you were to dump all the ads in to your sidebar so they appear on all pages they'd look a mess

To get around this, I have written a neat little ad rotator plugin / sidebar widget for matched ads which will display each ad correctly in the sidebar of each page you have an ad allocated to.

You can see this in action by visiting the following links:

If you too would like to make money from matched.co.uk easily with wordpress, then you can buy my ad rotator via paypal for just £10 by clicking this button:
