> It takes about 100,000 unique visitors a month to generate an income of $75,000 a year.

My programming blog has had about 110K+ visits over the past month (85K+ absolute unique visitors). It didn't make me $6K, not by a long shot. In fact, it made less than 1/10 of that.

Of course, if my blog was a shady site about Acai Berries, then perhaps the figures would be different. On average though, I have a hard time believing the numbers reported by the article.
