Things such as pay-through click programs could help those less fortunate and other people such as students work their way through college or high-school, or even life. Even if they do benefit the referrer as well, I believe it's still worth it. It's not going to cause any harm in doing so, and I see no reason for someone to get upset about it. It could even lead to bigger and greater things. I think it’s perfectly okay to share your earnings with the rest of the world.

Of the ones that do make an income, I don't really care about how much they make. All I worry about is that the blog owner doesn't put so many ads on his/her page that is distracts from the blog itself.

Like you said above, it's done constantly and with an urgency to get newbies to sign up, then that's just crass. And I'm sure you'll be honest and forthright with it, not like the one blog I read who said "I made $500 this month just by blogging!" and then buried in the paragraph somewhere was a mumbled "after I spent $200 on advertising..." Probably your readers are mostly just curious. :) I think it all depends on the tone and the reason.

I've been reading this blog for a while and I feel like youre a great guy and you aren't trying to rip me off or shame me. so if you shared, I wouldn't mind. i'd even appreciate some tips on trying to accomplish what you have. we're not competitors for the same readers, so i'd take anything from you that i could get. to be honest, i already ripped a few of your themes apart and worked some of the finer points into the themes on my site. so I guess I prolly owe you, then. go ahead and share and then teach us how to do the same. thanks, Curt i’ve been busting my buttocks with 3 sites and blogfarm. if you eliminate the private paid work, I think my sports blog makes like $75 a month. if you shared the money stats, no one would hate you.
