		<description>I agree with the previous comment... Amazon is a waste of time. Or at least has been for me! I haven&#039;t made much with LinkShare either, but it&#039;s been better than Amazon.
Paid blogging, actually selling links, had made me about $3500 in about 18 months time. Not a fortune, but not bad either. Since the two blogs I accept paid posting for  have lost page rank (a little punishment from Google for selling links) I&#039;m only making about $50 a month now! Advertisers put a lot of stock in page rank. Consequently, I don&#039;t sell links on my homeschooling or cake blogs... just not wanting to get Google slapped again.
Anyhoo... that&#039;s my story.</description>

		<description>Did I just get pwned? :)

Just kidding...Amazon Affiliates is worthless unless you can people to actually buy anything. Project Wonderful has great control options, but the payout is minuscule. Google AdSense is well, Google AdSense.

I&#039;ll talk about the company I&#039;m back with at a later time. It&#039;s different than ad-based and CPM-based revenue.</description>
