How many sponsors do you use? Blog Question
 

How many sponsors do you use with each niched blog? IE Teen you use X amount of sponsors Milf you Y amount of sponsors.

I have been using 3 or 4 not counting dating/can site banners.

another noob question I know but thats me.

It depends, but normally i focus on 2 or 3, evaluate their performance after a couple months and then switch it up if I need to. I don't know how many times I've gotten epassporte deposits from sponsors that I forgot I used and still have up in various blogs. People do go through and check out older posts in blogs, especially if you're using the related posts plugin.

alot to really see what se's are picking up, then after seeing trends - tweak to focus

I focus on about 10, check them out, then use new ones if necessary

I'm have over 300 sponsors in the list and use ALL available sponsored RSS feeds on my blogs.

make custom stuff and make sure you hit the terms people look for with at least 5 to 15 sponsors. rss is not a holy grail. it's a medium and depends on how you deploy it and how fresh things are. resyndicating your own custom stuff can be a very effective channel as well. I'm amazed that many guys and girls are not even touching the thinking-outside-of-the-box possibilities in that field.
