What if I sold ads here?

I see what Jason Calacanis was asking of Jimmy Wales (to sell ads on Wikipedia and donate the money to charity). Well, my traffic here is a lot smaller, but the folks involved in advertising tell me they could get quite a few thousand dollars per month by selling ads on my blog.

What do you think? Should I sell ads here? If it was your blog, would you hesitate? Why?

    As long as the advertisements are clearly marked, I don’t see any issues with having advertising on the blog.

    Instead of affiliate programs, or cost per click placements (Google), I think your blog would be better off with selling time based sponsorships. TechCrunch has sponsorship ad units on the right side of their homepage.

    I’d stay away from accepting any advertisers that you may blog about in the future or have in the past. I think that simple rule could solve a lot of issues around perceived conflict of interests.

    Thank you for your kind reply and this full informative post. I checked the VIP and found that my sites are still to reach this size of daily visitors.
    I downloaded the software before couple of months to host somewhere as you said but I don’t know how to work it to have my blogs there.
