i tried applying for adsense but got rejected for inapproperiate content. i learnt from www.google.com/support/forum/p/AdSense/thread?tid=45c5470380a64ec6&hl=en, that it might be because of the youtube/microsoft mix video embed i blog about. and the nature of tumblr reblogs producing duplicate content i am hoping to monitize my blog in any way (legal & professional of course). i find that adsense looks professional. but if its not possible yet, what other options do i have? adbrite ads looks unprofessional. i am using amazon affiliate also.
I found tumblr hard to monetize because most of the traffic my tumblr generated was internal. The problem with contextual advertisement on tumblr is only a select few will actually click through to see your site. I find that a majority of the users there only view content from the dashboard since it's a never ending stream of updates, it's far more stimulating than a static page. My suggestion would be to pimp out products from an affiliate program to capitalize on the traffic your contextual ads would be missing anyway.
