Although I don’t comment much here, I have been following your site for quite some time here. I run the site with Bobby Rio, and he asked the above question about our monetization.

I just redid the template and came up with an advertising program. We do alright on affiliates, as Bobby stated, but I feel like we are missing something. If you look at our advertise page, we have last month’s stats posted.

Maybe we are not pushing all possible affiliates, maybe we need some type of preferred members area, idk?

And I don’t who to ask anymore either.. Please help us.

Great to follow through these post links. Sure you’ve already dealt with this, but what about the area of improving the impact of photo’s and illustrations on blogs re layout and colours, and generally sprucing things up visually where necessary as a further hook?

I love you. I often come to your blog but then, distracted by something shiny or some such don’t get to read everything.

Fantastic selections. Each and every one is relevant to me.

Thanks!

Thanks for a great month of information and inspiration, Darren.

You’re the first blog I read from my rss feed…(Hey, kinda rhymes, doesn’t it?)

I really loved reading the “7 blog posts” and essential mac applications for bloggers posts.
This month gave many attractive posts apart from these in my view.

Great posts as usual.. unlike some of the popular money making blogs.. you continue to give quality relevant articles.

I do have a question:

I’ve recently been trying to monetize my blog more (at around 2k a month now) the problem i’m having is that i’ve seemed to max out on affiliate sales.. and want to get into private ads…

i just have no clue how to go about it.. Do you have any posts on here that might be able to help me?

Thanks

This is the first month I’ve followed this blog and man…GOOD STUFF.

Since stumbling upon (pun intended) I’ve become addicted to blogging and reading blogs. I just can’t get/give enough. I’ve created two different blogs myself this month along with some major improvements on my other websites (twitter, mybloglog, blogcatalog, some SEO).

Can’t wait to see where this goes.

Thanks a lot for your advice as well as those that comment on all the articles.

Thanks for summing up the last month, I think it was one of the most jam packed months of great content. Skellie always makes a great guest poster too.
