Work on being a salesman more than a webmaster for affiliate sales and you'll do good. Blogs are great, too, and making adult sites just to sell the traffic to CPC ad brokers is kind of like giving up....
I would humbly disagree, ad networks can provide some benefit to your ad spots that isn't anything like giving up. We have thousands of advertisers, so unless you build your own geo-targeted ad server then there's no way that you are maximizing your traffic. I've yet to find an sponsor that can single handily monetize a spot as well as having multiple advertisers buying different geo-segments of your traffic.

That's not to say that you can't also mix in some sponsors that do well, but its not giving up.
