I have a 4 month old blog .I am getting about 400 visitors per day.I applied for Clicksor but the earnings are pretty low-about 0.1$ per day.Is it normal?What is the maximum that can be earned from a technology blog with about 400 visitors daily?Also,90% of visitors come through search engines.

Short answer: there’s no fixed “maximum” — revenue from 400 visitors/day depends on three measurable things: how many pageviews those visitors generate, the ad click-through rate (CTR), and the average cost‑per‑click (CPC) or RPM your ads deliver. Use a simple estimate: earnings/day = visitors/day × pages/visit × CTR × avg CPC (or total daily pageviews × RPM ÷ 1000). That makes it easy to plug in your real numbers and see realistic outcomes.

A quick worked example: if 400 visitors produce 480 pageviews/day (1.2 pages/visit), a 0.6% CTR and $0.25 CPC gives about $0.72/day from clicks. If your ad stack produces an RPM of $4, 480 pageviews ≈ $1.92/day. Small changes in CTR, CPC, or pages/visit multiply results, so focus on improving those levers rather than expecting a single “magic” network to change everything.

Practical next steps (based on points raised here): as warned, remove any ad units that cause redirects/popups immediately — they kill trust and return visits. Verify site safety in an incognito window and check Search Console for security messages. Follow ’s advice: niche down and write problem‑solving, long‑tail posts that attract higher‑intent searchers (higher CPC and better conversions). Heed ’s caution about paid content: keep it relevant and high quality.

Checklist to move forward: 1) eliminate intrusive/malicious ads, 2) measure pageviews, CTR, RPM, bounce rate, 3) increase pages/visit via internal linking and focused guides, 4) test better ad formats/networks (and consider affiliate or product offers for higher per‑visitor value), 5) capture emails to build repeat traffic. Fix the trust issues first; revenue scales once visitors stick around and your content targets buyer intent.

Google gives me, for some sites with a similar amount of traffic about £1 / $1.60 a day.

Ah - when I click on your menu items, I get thrown over to betting sites full page ads, I get anti malware advisors popping up saying don't go here. I get new windows opening...

Conclusion, I and most other people in the world will NOT return to your site, and you will probably earn nothing. Are you posting the url here as a spammer perhaps???

you have an informative Blog, but beeing one of 4405, and this just in the blogtopsites technology subsection - all serving the same kind of content, does it not make easy to get 'popular'. All this, it's called 'technoworrlld', a name noone ever will remember how to write, or worse, you 'help' them to go to your competitors (correctly written) URL!!

your'e up against the odd's, as my father would have said.

One should not try to address the Masses, one can never compete. Specialize, not in MASS-, but in Niche- Markets. There, you have, automatically, less Competition as well as better Google & Co. Indexing.

Do you have a special Hobby or Knowledge? Does a Market exist for this? Could you possibly make a profit with or from your Hobby?

Don't spend time, trying something, without building on a fundamental (knowledge) bases. Whatever it is, however it looks, nothing will save you from knowing what your'e doing. At least, if you plan to make real money.

Good Luck!

The question is, did you create the blog just to make money or are you trying to meet the needs of your visitors? If you are trying to do both, you have to do this with caution.

If you're looking to monetize your site in various ways, writing articles for money could be an option. There are different marketplaces which do offer this option (like Teliad), I know most of the serious ones are very tuff on quality when it comes to accepting sites on their marketplace.

Be careful when selling an article, if it is not topic relevant or has nothing to do with your site I wouldn't even consider writing it.

    Thank you everyone for your feedback.Actually,I am new to blogging.
    @drjohn No,I am not a spammer.I actually didn't know that clicksor ads give malware warning.I have removed them.Please check once if everything is all right.Thanks once again for all your help.
