Blogging for profit

[Keyword: onlinejournalism]. Poynter reports on Australian Darren Rowse who is making a tidy sum through advertising revenue on his 17 (count em) blogs. Here's a quote:

"His blogs include Digital Camera Review, Camera Phone Review, and Laptop Review.

"Much of his income comes from Google's AdSense -- contextual ads placed on his blogs, in which Rowse shares some of the money. Things appear to be going well for Rowse, because he reports that in May, Google sent him a check for $14,436.45 -- his best month ever. The bulk of that money came from three of his blogs."

This is the third time I've covered this issue (Rowse's ProBlogger site was quoted in May; Simon Waldman's analysis on making money from blogs in February), so from now on I'll be collating links on this article.
