Once HauntJaunts.net goes live, I’m going to have writers to pay. Which means I need a way to make money from the site.
In addition to offering advertising opportunities, one of those ways was to become a Travelocity Affiliate Member. Anytime someone clicks through on our link and books travel arrangements through Travelocity, we get a cut.
Another way was Amazon’s Affiliate Program. I’ve long been a member of it, but other than to post links on my personal site, I really haven’t utilized it much. Until now…
HAUNTJAUNTS.NET EMPORIUM
I figured out the whole aStore thing and was able to create one for Haunt Jaunts! So far we have cameras, camcorders, clothing, ghost hunting equipment,luggage, books and magazines. Basically, if I thought a ghost hunting enthusiast would be interested in something, I added it to the store.
Which was kind of fun. It was like shopping without spending the money…
Anyway, if you want to check it out, click here. I also put a standing link to it on the sidebar of the blog. And of course you can access it from the website, HauntJaunts.net. (Which isn’t technically live yet, but certain elements are active, like trying to find writers and generate submissions, so…it’s up, but just not necessarily running at full steam yet.)
Courtney Mroch is a globe-trotting restless spirit who’s both possessed by wanderlust and the spirit of adventure, and obsessed with true crime, horror, the paranormal, and weird days. Perhaps it has something to do with her genes? She is related to occult royalty, after all. Marie Laveau, the famous Voodoo practitioner of New Orleans, is one of her ancestors. (Yes, really! As explained here.) That could also explain her infatuation with skeletons.
Speaking of mystical, to learn how Courtney channeled her battle with cancer to conjure up this site, check out HJ’s Origin Story.
Great idea! I like that you’re posting about this aspect of the new site too, it’s really interesting to me.
