That is true. Click through rate on ads is very low (about 1%). By the way, they have adsense for feeds now which I started using about a month ago.

The issue with adsense on a blog is the same as with forum, readers are ads-blind

worse, I’m a rss reader, and the post is fully send with the rss. That prevents me from coming here for each post.

Thanks for stopping by Erica, yep Peggy is like a second mother to me :) You have a good idea there with the videos…I have a number of them actually recorded from talks I did that I released free on here. I think videos have higher perceived value. Thanks!

Hi Brian,

I, too, am surprised your income is that low. Since you already have a successful book, why not pair it with some videos and do a $97 package? You could promote it and make some money that way. $97 adds up a lot more quickly than $20.

By the way, I found your blog through Peggy. She and I were in the same Pilates class here in San Jose. She said she’s known you since you were very young,a nd figured we’d have a lot in common. Looking at your blog, I’d have to agree!

Good luck. I have ~800 blog subscribers and haven’t attempted to really monetize yet. I’m currently making between $40-80/month with my blog (erica.biz).

Thanks for the tips Chris, I subscribed to your blog. I’ve got adsense for feeds set up, but never heard of OIO Publisher. It looks like a marketplace for people to buy/sell ad space on blogs? Has it helped you generate sales or just to manage it? I’ve made only a handful of private ad sales so far but it’s been fairly easy to manage just with paypal subscriptions. Keep in touch!
