Ok so I've been making minecraft adventure maps or a while and I saw that on adfly you can make money for posting things on it. I have tryed but I can't figure out how to do it, how do I make money off of making maps? Also where can I post these maps, planet minecraft doesent support adfly. Are there any others sites like adfly that I can make money on, and how? I use mediafire to make the download links can I make money off of that?
Please tell me it will really help alot.
You can't.
Mapmaking is a hobby and unless you are mind-blowingly awesome at it, you won't be able to make money off it.
I think with adfly you need about 10k downloads to withdraw profits. 99% of all maps won't ever reach that.
If you make maps for money instead of for fun, you shouldn't waste your time and stop now.
I made like $3 from all of my maps, not that great, but the month I've posted 4-5 maps in I got $2 off it. So if you are planning to make a lot, or you have an amazing map, it might be worth it. I post my maps on these forums since they support adfly and other moneytizers. Remember this 1k downloads is about $2.

There are a few other sites to post your maps to. Get an adfly account, then copy the links for the maps using the adfly shrink url option, then post the link to some sites, make sure you have a good description and plenty of great screenshots. There are 2 sites that I post my maps to other than here and planet minecraft. The other sites are minecraftmaps.com and minecraftmaps.org. Make sure your map is functioning (no bugs), high quality, and unique. The better your map, description, and screenshots the more downloads you get. I hope this helped.

ok thanks I will try this and hopefully he a lot of downloads
Make friends and get them to bump your forum topic repeatedly... that helps. And if you are making more than one map every 2 months, you aren't putting enough work into your maps.
I spent almost 300 hours making a map and made 80$ off of it... so that is like 27 cents an hour. If u want money, you would be better off getting a job of some sort.
