I am looking to commercialise a blog I run, topic is - cultivating creativity for authors/photographers. In 6 months it has grown to ~300 followers. About 5 years ago I developed a non-commercial blog on Electronic Warfare and grew readership from a starting base of 10 to 3000 in 6 months. I will be using that same growth technique and am looking to revive my older blog as well.
Can someone point me towards a starters guide on adsense and blog commercialisation? Just trying to cut through all the shit and the BTC community is great ta doing that..

I don't have any experience with ad sense but I can give you some data on another advertiser. Afaik this advertiser pays low, about 0.02 BTC per 3000 visitors. (~18$). Is AdSense paying better? Did you do anything else than social networking to promote your blog? ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

I made around $18000 last year from adsense. It's pretty straight forward although they are very strict with your content, you can find 100's of articles online for starters, one think you'll learn along the way is that the less the better, a blog with 2 well placed ads can make 10x as much as a blog with 20 ads scattered everywhere.
The first google ad that loads on your site is the highest paying advertisement, then so on. So it really becomes a game of trial and error when starting out, if you have any specific questions feel free to pm me.

It really is trial and error, made about $300 from Adsense and that took me about 2 months. A few articles posted and I just left it. I would focus on attracting legitimate traffic with well placed ads and see how that goes.

First a rant: I have made over $30K off of adsense in the past 4 years but I think that it completely sucks. Most of my money came from a viral video that I created and got picked up by a lot of sites and YouTube itself. It seemed that once I became such a success with my anti New World Order / anti NSA video that they slowly shut me down one blog at a time. The best one was when they robbed me of income because I embedded a video with millions of views and got the ban hammer because they said I embedded a video that was in violation of copyright. Fine, but YouTube continued to allow the the violating video to remain on their servers. IMO if they want you gone, you are gone. I say all of this because your warfare blog may get shizzled like mine did. Controversy or going against the status quo can bring you hurt. Now why not say fuck adsense and go with a service that pays out in bitcoin? Try https://coinurl.com

Is it like that or it is about the size ?

Do they accept blogs on a private domain? Avoid CoinURL. Use a-ads.com. Far better payout and dont withhold your payout for crappy reasons.

What was your niche ? Care to share ? Blog is down now and sadly I didn't make a backup but I would post anything related to computers, I didn't really have a specific niche but if it involved computers and was a trending topic I would usually try and get an article up asap.
