If a site have unique visitors in a day then its an advantage.You can place an ad for other marketers in a low price for a start.I see lots of site doing this after establishing their page rank.

You offer a premium version of your blog; where some of the content is only available to paying customers. A wordpress plug-in called Contenture does this for you.

You can also try WP-Member

Sign up for an affiliate network such as:
Rocket Profit
Hydra Network
MaxBounty
Clickbank

And post the graphic banners on your blog. The truth is you probably won't have enough traffic on your site, at least in the beginning, to waste your time with AdSense. Your best bet is to find an affiliate offer and place those ads on your site. The commission you get from one sale or e-mail (if its a CPA) submit will be much more lucrative than say a click on adsense. Believe it or not clickthrough rates on Adsense ads are not as high as you would think.

Blogging In Action provides a great step-by-step on how to generate traffic to your blog in 3-6 months. You have to put some sweat equity into it, its not overnight, but the techiques work. Especially the tips on Guests blogging and Blog Carnivals.

You can sell links, create an amazon.com aStore on your site, join eBay's affiliate program, create your own eBook and sell it on your site like this guy at Art of Nonconformity, and you can always build a blog to a certain number of steady traffic and then sell it.
