I don't think most folks are making a lot off advertising .. Esp blogspot which is a free site to blog on but .....nothing is free! so the advertising pays for site to exist. Those that do monitize the site are doing it to afford the lifestyle and they aren't making much :-) esp since I don't click on the ad . But hey it can allow them to possibly write off their travel expense as research :-)
Personally I'm so used to reading several blogs that I pay no attention to the ads Just like watching a OTA. Tv station there are ads to pay the bills ( I go get a beer) :-)
X2... If they're making a few bucks, more power to them.
I'm with you guys. Thanks for your replies. A lot of people get down on people promoting their blogs on here. We have advertisements, but so does every other page on the web, including your email. I just ignore the ads. Nobody is making big bucks. I was once accused of "guerilla advertising"because I asked for suggestions. I took the time to write the content because I want to share it with people as opposed to have it sit in a corner unnoticed getting dusty. I worked full time most of my life and would do all my creative work late at night. I used to dream of having a schedule where I could write more. Now I have the time. It's not something I expect to make a lot of money off of, but if I can why not? Everyone has to promote themselves to make a living one way or another anyway. We have had hundreds view our page since I posted, as opposed to hardly any 6 months before. It's nice to see that people are reading. Thanks again for the positive feedback!
