Here's the deal, I'll give you 4 tips that should turn things around for you
- Focus on getting backlinks for your blog. No matter if you have 80 posts or 8,000 posts, if you don't have relevant backlinks to your blog (by categories if possible) you will not have much success. Once you have enough backlinks you end up in a trusted zone with google and it will update you more often and with higher rankings. Do a board search for blog directories, ping, and trackbacks. Also, simple link trades help.
- Increase your catagories, niches and etc. Long tail keywords is what will keep the money flowing. With 80 categories I can virtually assure you you aren't hitting enough of them to make it worth your while.
- Speed up your post making by doing two things:
- Write posts in a conversational style. Write them as you would say them. don't overthink it. Don't try to sell hard, write them as you are talking to the person. For instance, if you have a fetish set from a fetish site you are promoting the first thing you may think is, "I bet this woman is sweating like a pig under all that latex. She's hot though, I'd love to pin some clips on those nipples! Click here to see her scream with pleasure after the electricity is turned on!" It's more important for them to be relevant and personal than it is for them to be long.
- If you are hosting the content make sure you arrange it beforehand. That way the workflow goes much faster. Organization is key with blogs
- If blog writing just isn't your strong point, don't be afraid to pull morphing feeds. There's plenty of sponsors that have them and as Jace said they do work well. I do them on some blogs myself. My main blogs are hand written for two reasons, I can talk about a bunch of stuff that porn feeds never do and keep it entertaining which also pulls more SE clicks and gets links from other places because guys & girls talk about it and pass some of the links around the web. Also, I like to write if you haven't noticed. ;)
If you do everything I just said you will see it turn around. I'm sure Jace can add a few things.
If you don't do anything else, make sure you work on your backlinks on the main blog. That should at least make you a few sales a month for the next 5 years.
