I have a political blog that I write because I think the government sucks and enjoy getting my thoughts out. It has made $0. I’ve barely tried to monetize it and have no intention of doing so. People come to read that shit. Not click and buy. So yea you are correct with the politics. Though the blog gets traffic and is useful for getting other sites indexed and sharing PR.
I don’t know If I said it already but …Hey good stuff…keep up the good work! I read a lot of blogs on a daily basis and for the most part, people lack substance but, I just wanted to make a quick comment to say I’m glad I found your blog. Thanks,)
I‘m sure many of you are like me and one of the first things you do in the morning is head here and check out the new post. Along with seeing the new posts, I’m also always checking out the blog roll rss feed and watching them grow, or shrink sometimes. In one of my past …but all in all excellent site. Keep it up!

Splork – without saying too much, what might that traffic be interested in?

I discovered an entertainment/gossip/celebrity niche that is male and female friendly and easy to write short posts about, with photos.

Sounds like a great niche. I ‘ve seen you mention politics before and my experience is that that traffic is nearly worthless.

I would try to get those people over to eBay with my EPN cookie in them.

I thought I read some time before that Griz made some cash with his celebrity blog using some trendy keywords. Ask him what he used to monetize it…

I am acutally just experimenting with wordpress.com myself – they seem to get PR easily – do you just use if for the odd backlink?
