A few ideas that I've seen out in the wild:
- Engage with your most consistent readers and find out what makes them such big fans. Use that to create premium/paid content.
- turn into a paid newsletter (or paywall for the blog). Keep some content free but write additional content for paid subscribers.
- add a premium content tier that could include: slack community, monthly "mastermind" or guest events, job board access, etc
- turn each article into a podcast episode, youtube video, twitter thread, etc. to earn more advertising revenue and/or grow audience

Thx for sharing the ideas. I'm new to blogging, I don't think the premium subscription will work in my case. Maybe turning the articles to YouTube videos would be good in my case.
