So how do you intend to monetize your blog?

(You know what I'd recommend by now; don't count on passive sources like Adsense, market a product or service)
I'm doing massive amounts of research on how people are making money online today. Everything from blogging successes like Steve Pavlina, John Chow, ProBlogger etc. to other ways of making money online like Affiliate Marketing, selling eBooks, NitroMarketing, etc.

In the end, everything boils down to the individual with 80-90% of the success rate determined by the psychology of the person and 10-20% the mechanics of what they actually "do". Most blogs on "Make Money Online" only focus on the mechanics - I plan on focusing on both.

I also wanted to say that in my "day job" I've lead a team of developers that has already developed several websites that generate multi-million dollar revenues, so it's not like I'm new to this, but my focus here is more on making money online for the individual person, not about building a corporation with employees offering an online product/service.

I'm much more interested how a single person, working from home can make $500/month part time or $5,000/month full time by providing value in their unique area of expertise/passion. That's my target market.
