Affiliate Marketing Secrets

Hello, yahoo contributors. I have a question that will question my shallowness. I am interested in how much work does it take to monetize a blog.
To rule it out, I’m talking 500 $ a month. This is.. let’s say, my top goal. My question really comes down to numbers. How much money do pay-per-click ads generate? How much money do banners generate? I know this all comes to traffic, but how much traffic should I have to be able to cash out 500 bucks a month? I know a successful blog comes down to a niche, to passion, to quality content. But the only thing I care about right now is dough. Being smart, as I consider myself to be, I know I could to this. I have no problem in writing low class material that would bring stupid audience and no principles when it comes down to this.
Please don’t judge me, I’m not really like this (you can ask my girlfriend, she knows I’m awesome), but this is the truth when it comes to this particular case. I would appreciate it if you could help me (again, what I’m looking for are numbers).
Thank you.

I would like to know how can i create website for people to build without the need of putting content and creating according to their niche. I’m more interested in website creating possibly design the website rather than do the content.
I wonder, Who ever created website for people i’m a newbie interested in learning how to create Web sites

I would like to build a niche website that I think will really take off. It would involve sellers and customers both joining and being able to process payments through the site, and sell digital content. Any pointers/links that could help would be fantastic! Thank you!

Evan Williams should be given an honour or knighthood for creating Blogger and starting a revolution. As smartphones and tablets become more ubiquitous, content curators are finding it easier to develop a niche blog and attract an audience. More important, people who are an authority on a particular niche can easily set up a blog for free. However, a blog would only become popular if the readers actually enjoy the posts. Are you one of them? Do you follow any/many blogs and why?

please help me by rating my website according to following points
looks
content
niche
any other parameter that you may consider important

I get between 30 and 60 pageviews a day on my blog. It’s a pretty modest affair that I write about once every 2 weeks more as a hobby than anything. Is this any good? I know there are blogs that get thousands every day but I’m not writing that often, ad I prefer to keep my content niche and as original as possible.
