If you are online, chances are you read a blog - possibly even write one. The blog has evolved incredibly since it's early start as a means to share company information among colleagues. Today, blogs provide users with a platform to express themselves, to connect, and to learn.
Blogs certainly have staying power, though services like micro-blogs have leap onto the scene, blogs continue to dominate the online discussion. Sites like Technorati, Google, Blog Lines, WordPress, and Typepad attest to the power and utility of the blog.
Albeit, the blog is sort of like a newspaper article. It's there for users to enjoy, but rarely will anyone want to pay for the content. So how profitable can a blog be?
Professional bloggers are paid in a couple of ways. One way that they are rewarded for their efforts is through per-post payment. Numbers obviously variety depending on the ability and pull the blogger might have as to how much a company will be willing to pay the blogger per post. Some bloggers make money by writing product reviews. This is a trickier job because the writer needs to build trust with the audience and still put a positive spin on the product or service being reviewed. Another way in which bloggers can make money is through affiliate marketing. Bloggers allow companies to place advertisements on their blogs, generally in the side column, but occasionally at the top or bottom then when items promoted are bought or clicked on the blogger receives a payment. Affiliate marketing is a great way for bloggers to establish some credibility and generate (supplemental?) income.

AdSense, Chitika, WidgetBox, Amazon, and netSpray each provide bloggers with real ways to make money from their blogs. Each site more or less gives bloggers the opportunity to place product widgets on their blog. Occasionally, the programs allow for the placement of ads in the blog writing itself. Additionally, bloggers secure the chance to build or customize the advertisements to connect the information categorically to the information provided by the blog. Most bloggers agree, the best advertisement is the advertisement that relates to the content provided through the blog.
