Lots of bloggers make money from ads on their blogs - such as Google Adsense.  Google makes money each time these ads are clicked on, and the blogger gets a small cut of this.

Some sites make A LOT from adsense:

There's also money to be made through affiliate links, such as Amazon.  You put a link to something on Amazon, say for example a book or DVD, and Amazon pays you a small amount each time the click-through results in a purchase.

I don't make any money from my blog, which is advert-free and will remain so. It's my public diary and a place where I can put my views down in one location, instead of having to search through loads of forums to find something I wrote ages ago. That's why I write one. Other people have different motives though.

A few months ago... some US poker firm offered me $$$ to put an ad on my WonkyJim blog as they'd seen it getting some traffic, we negotiated and  agreed a decent price then 2 days later the US bill got signed and they withdrew!  Bugger!
