Even though blogging can be done for free, for most there are a few minimal expenses. If you have your own domain and hosting that’s going to cost a few dollars, and then there’s the cost of your internet access and computer.

There are a few ways to bring in a few dollars from your blog. Blogads is a great service (and one I wish someone would take advantage of here). But let me just say a quick word about . They are easy to use, easy to set up, and they do the work of both pricing and selling the ads. They payout through paypal on the first of every month.

They’re not going to make you rich, or allow you to blog full-time, but they may just help you break even. And sometimes breaking even is a good thing.

(Full Disclosure: They even give you bonus for people who sign up for through a link on your site.)
