How much are you making from your blog?

After seeing how much TechCrunch.com makes a month, I am curious what everyone else is making off their blogs?

I'm interested in hearing about all blogs even if you make very little.

About $80 dollars a month, so it pays for hosting and a few domain registrations. $20 through adsense, $40 through CPA and $20 through paid plugs. And TechCrunch is a bad example...think bigger. StevePavlina.com, Problogger.net. It is definitely a very saturated market but I went from zero to $80 in about a month and a half and now only post every few days. There are better ways to make money on the web.

My 2 Cents

Surprised u make 80 dollars a month. Not a bad income just for blogging I guess? Post a link to your blog, think I saw it before but its not in your sig.

yeah $80/month i'd take that in a heart beat. I am curious as to which way to go when wanting to make money on a blog. I have been trying to gte more and more traffic to my blog but doens't seem to work. I am not sure if I have done something wrong or if my blog is one of no interest to most? I have some other blog ideas but wanted to see if I was successful at getting traffic which I don't seem to be. Any help and or critques would be appreciated. Please take a look and even if it isn't that good let me know, I don't want to waste my time on something that will never develop.

And I agree with YouDidWhat in that there are other ways to make money online.

Thanks in advance everyone....

4-Knots - I'd love to, but I think its against YE's rules to post link with "adult" content. One of my recent articles reference a few porn sites, the CTR rate they had, and their adsense(or rather a similiar program that offers advertising to adult content) integration. If you really want it, I'll PM it to you.

Beyourownboss - ***Traffic is the key***. In the beginning, put your blog in your sig, its a start. And content is it, unless you have some other way to draw visitors to your blog.
SUBMIT, SUBMIT, SUBMIT is key.
SUBMIT your blog to other blogs of similar topics for link exchange.
SUBMIT your blog to directories.
SUBMIT your articles to article directories

Hope this helped.
