I do receive some very modest checks from the advertising on my blog, which isn't at all on topic for a thread about DOs.

I've been blogging since 2002. I actually never received even a dime of ad revenue in the first five or six years at least. But I have managed to pick up a few hundred bucks here and there over time from writing it.
