With PR0, those advertisers still think that my blogs are suited for the waste bin. Bah! Nevermind, can always make side income elsewhere. <strong>Adino</strong>: Yeah, time to look elsewhere.

Personal blogs. These sort of blogs are not very popular. I think maybe we need to be more specific in our areas to blog - if we want to take the route of earning an income from blogs. Otherwise, lets just blog for fun's-sake. All this PPP stuff really irks readers. <strong>Adino</strong>: That's a good view point, and I think you've told me that before. I agree also about PPP posts... every time I go on a sponsored posts spree I see very low reader activity. Let you in on a secret: I have another blog project in development ;) That blog should be the income generating one in the future, because it's one of those 'niche' topic blogs Adino, you and i are in the same type of blog.

I wonder why you are apologizing in the first sentence, this post is not that boring... Oh yes, I'm a blogger. <strong>Adino</strong>: It would be boring for non-bloggers, because they might not understand all the fuss about Google PR I’ll also continue reading your blog, but sponsored posts are not very interesting to me, so I tend to skip them most of the time.

If you have a higher PR you qualify for better offers... for example a PR4 blog can get paid USD80 to write one sponsored post. Recently Google took action against those who were selling text links and writing sponsored posts, eliminating all their PR to zero. This is why I have decided to stop writing sponsored posts (for now). As for ads, it depends on your web traffic. The more visitors you have, the more ad income your blog can generate. actually do you guys make a lot from sponsored posts and ads? i have never thought about them before – being a new blogger and all – but if its really lucrative maybe i will do them too…won’t know where to start though!

My blog has a RR of 166 but I'm still seeing PR0 and PR1 type of opps :( I think if you are writing for 3P then RR is important..
