Like BadWolf I guess I will also say Yep.
Last year was biggest $$$ year ever.
I will disclaim though that my blogs *ARE* - with careful research and keyword-rich handwritten posts - SE sites. I still however play the role of 'knowledgable webmaster host' who is there to entertain and inform the surfer.
With that said very little is actually given away and the surfer is always encouraged to go to where "the good stuff" is - ie. the high-quality, niche paysite where I GET PAID WHEN THEY SIGNUP.
Most traffic is from Google and other search engines.
I recently hired a friend to make posts for me, and will probably introduce her into the adult webmastering biz (for herself) through blogging... although I don't know what the future holds for it. I imagine it will always be pretty good as traffic is entirely based on SE traffic with link pop coming from my own network plus a smattering of link trades w/other blogs, LL's and blog directories.
If anyone would like some advice or like to make some link trades shoot me a PM or reply here or you can e-mail me also. (It could be some time before I reply 'cuz I am travelling... ...
)
