@Asia’h Epperson: I don’t know if you read my whole post, but I had different layout before thats why my adsense income was growing , where now I don’t have as much advertising going on just because I like to blog more then purely making money of ads. I am thankful for all the income i generated but yet my main focuse is to provide other bloggers help. Read my next post you might find something interesting..

To be frank, if your reader is mainly fellow blogger, most probably they won’t click ads also.

And I was quite surprise you do so well for adsense in a year. My guess is those adsense figure is not from this blog.

Yeah you are more than right like everyone else who states that celeb blog makes more money by ads than tech blogs.

1st of all techies have sites bookmarked for reference. And they scan through Google search results before clicking on a website link .. how can they be expected to click on a google ad

people who search for celeb blogs are not so geeky so they consider ads as a part of content and they dont “even know that some websites are just lame. ”

PS: I hate celeb blogs which are hosted on blogspot ..

I have a friend who runs a technology blog and he has gone for AdSense, I’ll ask hit how it is doing but I agree the niche has to be right.

Nice post. It is a great thing to consider when choosing a niche. Its surprising that places like DP make anything at all from it then.
