    Hello! I started my //blogs.qoody.net blog just a little over a week ago. Right now it has about 50 unique visitors every day. I wonder if there is a way to earn some pocket money with it now? AdSense does not work. Maybe somebody can suggest what can be done with the blog that young? Even 50 bucks a month will be great for the start.

    $50/month off 50 unquies per day on a blog will be very tough. I get over 100 uniques per day and struggle to $5/month off advertising, let alone $50. Anyways, you can try PPC programs, affiliate programs, text link sales, RSS feed advertising, paid posting / posts, etc

    Good luck.

    For the first few months, focus on content. As your domain ages, you will get better rankings.

    Infonote is right, its the content that is most important when you are just starting out, and it needs to be regular, a few posts a week, and the content needs to be worth something to the reader; otherswise they won't be back.

    However, the OP asked for ways to monetize the blog, not advice on developing it.

    Yes, as the others said. Focus on adding quality content that people are in interest of, 4-5 articles a week maybe if possible. Then one the stats have increased more, sell text links etc.

    True but the two go hand in hand. With no traffic because of no quality content it doesn't matter how goody monetizes his blog, he still won't get any money.

    That said check out TextLinkAds.com and AuctionAds.com. Both are very easy to setup, have great support, and once you add their code (like adense) they take care of everything else.
