The author probably gets affiliate kickbacks as well. On the other hand though, what else is he going to blog about? What baffles me however is how there is supposedly so much money in blogging about making money through blogging. During the summer I attempted to blog some more, and put in a bunch of content that resulted in large traffic spikes of 20-30k visitors for a couple days. Amazingly, I received something on the order of 50 cents which seems like a complete opposite of people claiming to make a few dollars on a random blog with 100 visitors a day. So now I've decided that everyone is either grossly exaggerating or I am a complete failure at monetizing.
