    Hey guys, it's been a while since i quit all this stuff. Now i want to start my new blog. Due to some experiences in my life i try to get my mind as busy as i can can, so i decieded to start a blog (this time, mainly for the sake of writing).
    I would like to monetize it if it's possible, but without money being my main goal.
    Basically i'll take it as a game, you know, write, SEO, and all that but from the standpoint of entertainment more than making money. Like seeing how can i make it grow, some sort of Tamagotchi (do you know those?) of marketing.
    So since i've been out a lot i'm a little bit rusty so i could use some tips of you, actual bloggers.
    Since i know what i'll write about, i need suggestions on other stuff like:

    - Some good free plattform (i'm more familiarized with blogger, but in it's old version, but probabily i can learn about the new one or since i'm starting from scratch, wordpress it's better or some other that i didn't hear about).

    -Some good advertising company i can use (banned from adsense and not happy with bidvertiser, i don't know how bidvertirser it's working these days).
    Basically, i'm not looking to get paid by impressions, but per click since probabily i won't get 10000 uniques per month, at least not this year.
    Also, if it's some company that pays over $0.20 per click it's better (again, i'm out of trend. Probabily, these days that kind of aumount per click it's a fortune).
    Also, it has to be a company that accepts international members.

    And mainly, for the guys that are a lot around DP lately, links about anything that can be useful to me (threads, your own blogs with tips and all that).

    I hope to get some replies, thanks in advance!!

    Go with a self install of WordPress.

    To monetize, try Adbrite or Chitika (although I'm not sure if they are international).
