I have a VOC photoblog hosted on Tumblr. It is filled only with photographs with cameras. To date, +1430 photos have been added. Each photo post gets a lot of likes and reblogs, as the photoblog has +2080 followers inside the Tumblr system. Site traffic is 300 unique visitors per day from Canada, USA and a small part from Europe.

This photoblog is like a personal hobby, from which I would like to receive a cash profit and motivate myself to maintain and develop the photoblog. How to monetize? How to earn? How to find a sponsor? The idea immediately came to my mind to advertise referral links for cameras in online stores in Canada and the USA, and then get a profit from each sale.

What stores do you work with? What other methods exist?

Can you put your code in there?
If yes, then you can hang adsense or some teasers.
Well, I don't know what to recommend. Post photos with ads for a fee.
For example, take a picture of business cards, and a link, they say, you can order here.
Difficulties will be with the search for advertisers, it is not so easy.
Although you can also advertise affiliate programs through photos.
Like, 50 dollars for a poker deposit, and a link.
or something else. And in order not to be intrusive, write that this is an advertising photo to order. Like, you posted it not for the sake of advertising, but simply as your work for the portfolio.
I don't know what else to offer.

Try to offer your banner sites to photo equipment stores. Or give the same users their advertisements, what cool photographers they are.

Register on GumGum, get a couple of lines of html code there, which can be inserted before the closing body tag in the Tumblr template, after which ads will automatically appear on top of the images.
The withdrawal of earnings is possible through PayPal, but you need to accumulate at least $ 50, which I have not yet succeeded in, so this aspect has not yet been tested ...

How about working on order?
