17 Ways to Make Money on a Website | Part 6 - Obituaries

Similarly to advertisements, obituaries are also increasingly often published online.

There is a number of ways to monetise

TIP: You can sign partner agreements with funeral homes, which will become your contractors in a way.

In exchange, the bottom part of the obituary may include information on who is in charge of organising the farewell. Among others, Eluban.pl sells obituaries in this manner.

TIP: Another way is ordering them directly at the editorial office via some payment arrangement. This is a way used by one of our clients, Dziennikpowiatowy.pl.

Why am I against free obituaries?

Payment can be used to verify your readers and avoid stupid jokes, like “killing” the chemistry teacher one does not like.
