            i think with 1.5k visits a day on a blog, you gotta have a niche specific blog to make a sale every day.
            This guess is based on my own genral porn blog.

                Well say it makes a sale a week, as long as he ends up making more $ than what he paid for it.

                                  It?s easier for some people to make money from blogs than others and a lot of the adult blogs I have seen are absolute crap with making money or even any form of marketing at all is a second thought. A blog isn?t a TGP and if you are going to try to make money just by putting a load of thumbs/pics up you are wasting your time.

                                  The more niche specific that you make a blog the better they work. A well-run blog pick up bookmarkers very fast and are really one of the best sales tools on the web. Sometimes it?s a good idea to think outside the box.

                                      anything is possible, blog traffic seems to be decent but there are just a lot of factors. i'm getting a lot of clickthroughs but not alot of sales off one that i have that's barely a month old. but it's also not a strictly porn blog, so it's also got some elements that i enjoy writing about and other perks.

                                          The conversion rates for a niche specific blog are very high. In most cases, I can pick up a sale a day from one of my 5k+ blogs.

                                            Update your blog everyday and you'll get a lot of SE traffic soon... If you've done everything right.

                                              my http://www.nylonsblog.com makes alot more sales than my tgp's with the same amount of traffic! But thats no big surprise! But it takes time to build up traffic. I have some steady, but I got more and more from the search enginges every day!

                                                  Updating a blog everyday, is not the same as updating a tgp everyday. 3-5 times per week is enough. Or less you will burn your ass, and throw it all away!

                                                              my latest blog for some reason isn't getting listed in yahoo properly, only the main page is, whereas my other one got listed just fine every page of it

                                                              but yahoo is updating the main page description every day on my listing, i can't figure out why they're not adding all the pages
