As long as this tag is in place then you can sell them all you want. I didn't charge for the free blog reviews I did for about 6 months. I did these as a way to promote this blog in its early stages. I stopped doing them a while ago for a few reasons. Hi Peter,

But one question though, would selling blog reviews land you in trouble with Mr G? May I find out how do you source for these websites to write the reviews.

I think a blog based income of $100-200 a month is quite doable for most people. If you want to make more than that, then you'll need to talk to <a href="http://bloggerunleashed.com/niche-blogging/start-a-blog-about-ants/" rel="nofollow">Dr. Vic</a>. Thanks Caveman,

The second most profitable was running a site in conjunction with an eBay store but that well ran dry eventually. Hi Saedel,

It was very informative and it was easy to read. Well-explained. By the way, I may have missed it but what kind of monetization works for you best? I'm going to tweak my blog a little bit so it will be better before you review it :P I know I'm the last in the list, I have more time. Thanks Frank for posting the series.
