WisdomTree U.S. Dividend Growth Fund (NasdaqGS: DGRW)

Annual Fee: 0.28%

Comment: DGRW is a much different dividend animal than the aforementioned SDY, but the former merits a place in a portfolio of this nature as well. DGRW allocates 22% of its weight to the tech sector, one of the largest tech allocations among dividend ETFs, a trait that ensures feature dividend growth.

Likewise, the ETF is home to a combined 36% weight to staples and industrial stocks, sectors seasoned income investors have flocked to for decades.

DGRW has another advantage: It pays its dividend monthly, which can boost returns with a portfolio that has a lengthy time horizon. [ETFs for Monthly Dividend Hunters]
