Not all blogs have the same prospect of earning from AdSense. There are many factors to consider, including, traffic, topic, optimization, ad relevance and blog layout.
There are other ways though to earn from your blog. The next best thing is by selling links on your blog. This is actually more geared towards blogs that have considerably high Google Page Rank (PR). The higher your blog’s PR, the bigger the chances that you’ve get link advertisers (and higher paying ones as well).
Take for example Kate’s blog. He’s been trying to monetize his blog thru AdSense for sometime now but I guess the traffic he gets aren’t enough to pump in the desired revenues. So selling links seems to be a better alternative considering he’s got a PR 6 blog.
Along came Text Link Ads. They’re basically a text links marketplace. They’ll do the selling of links for your blog and get 50% of how much they sell for the month.
Each link costs somewhere between $50 to $100 per month. With a maximum of 10 link slots, you could potentially earn between $250 to $500 per month (10 x {$50 - $100} x 50%). And Kates has all his 10 slots filled up!

It all boils down to finding the right revenue stream for your blog. Adsense is not the end all, be all of making money online.
Pre, the figure speaks for itself.
Thats why spend more time for SEO and PR…
Yuga,
I wrote this to Kates as well…
the problem with your selling links this is that you are openly advertising that you are selling links - and that’s what will bring your site onto a link selling blacklist at google & co.
This will basically mean that your site won’t pass PR anymore and therefore advertisers (those who care & know) will turn away…
BTW I haven’t seen 10 filled spots at kates…

Hi!
That is true. The same issues have been heavily discussed in Steve Rubel’s blog before when he openly “experimented” with selling links on his blog.
where is steve rubels blog?
