Actually I did read the TOS when I joined PPP. Then the TOS changed...

They didn't make the correction.
Actually I had site wide disclosure but it wasn't labeled the way PPP liked it (said "about healthspanblog.com" instead of "disclosure") and still had a post rejected (it eventually vanished). I made the change but PPP screwed up - nothing new there.

I based that on the lowest paid posts which are $5 each but many pay more than that, so that person could have made even more money than that with with a bit of work. (or have done fewer posts and still made good money) It's not that hard.
The blog in question is a PR 4 blog. Now if I were willing to blog about whatever random crap I found on PPP I could have made more money. But this is a health blog. I only blog about health stuff on there. It seems like the only blogs that make money on PPP are the ones that have no niche.

$2,700 in 6 months? That still sucks. Especially when you factor in the time it would take me to do 3 blog posts / day.
