I just want to make back my costs and have fun doing it. A site covered in ads like that will never be on my reading list. I most just take in the general web knowledge here. I wouldn't mind making more money, but I could never get my self to do it that way I don't think. Thats why I will never be anything close to a problogger.

Then I go on to read all about what the guy is doing for more money and how he has no time to read all emails he receives. That should keep visitors sticky, huh? I dunno---just not my cup of tea I guess. I’m in agreement that the ads are in- your- face and invasive from a new visitor’s standpoint.

You should be serving ads (if you had any) for AutoCAD, design software, digital photography, etc. based on your topics. But all Adsense preview is showing is the miniscule cents per click ads for blog related stuff. You'd probably triple your income or better if you completely expunged the word "blog" from your blog. Don't use the word blog; don't put the word blog in menus; refer to your site as a "site" or even "page" not a blog; if you link to something with blog in the name leave the word blog out; if you absolutely have to talk about blogging, talk about b!0gging. I have several non-tech, non-financial sites that average more than pennies a day. None to retire off of, but breaking into the multiple dollar per day per blog mark with my political sites is increasingly common and with only moderate traffic.

There are not freely available product reviews to link into. As a result, one has to write articles on how to use financial products in various situations. If you are starting out with blogging, just choose a consumer electronics brand or product category and start copy pasting. Keep it focused and don't sprawl into something else before you are seeing results. Financial terms are harder topic, because one has to actually know something about the industry.

One blogger who has that isn't in tech is Manolo from <a href="http://www.shoeblogs.com" rel="nofollow">Shoe Blogs</a> - which means fashion must do ok. I know someone making good money from gardening supplies sites.... anything product related is worth exploring - as are financial terms etc. The problem is that most publishers are hesitant to go public with reporting how much their industries make because they don’t want the competition.

I got a few blog, mostly art and design blogs and you don't want to know how much i make a day - not in dollars but in cents. Was thinking of removing the ads. It would be great if Darren would point out a few non-tech, how to make money site that is actually making money out of it. Lets say an anti-smoking site or charity site. i thought google’s policy is that one are not allow to reveal their income? anyway, i agree with jamsi, i hate blogs that have too many ads, its a pain in the leg. and i couldn’t agree more with kamemada, most of the blogs that makes money are those that says how to make money.

Some of those pages have almost the entire page filled with ads until you scroll down. I don't think I could ever read a site like that. Kind of hard not to click an ad... I don't know. I guess that is the way to make money, and a big reason why my sites don't. Con Grats on the income, but wow. Some of those pages have almost the entire page filled with ads until you scroll down.
