Thanks a lot Stephan. Thanks for leaving a comment. As Epiblogger grows we will likely be placing ads of some sort on the site, but the question of what kind of ads is a very real question for Lee and I. I feel that same fear of endorsing something that I know nothing about. On my personal blog, http://www.rockstarpoet.ca, I endorse a great tshirt company called Uneetee. I do that because I own like 8 of their shirts and they are awesome. But I also have Google Ads and they tend to worry me a little bit… but more often than not I just think they are hilarious plus I have made like $10 in the last 6 months so any day now I can expect a cheque… right?

Great post. It does seem that there is a fine line we walk blogging. Up to now my blog has been relatively ad free while I figure out a good way to monetize it. I have been an affiliate marketer for a while and make a lot of sales where I am not involved that much. I basically match what people are looking for with a product. But when I started blogging more often I realized that my name is on any endorsements I may make. It has made me a little bit afraid of promoting anything that I haven’t tested completely.
