KKM, what is your blog about? Knowing this can help give an idea as to what might give you the best results.

I notice you are in Singapore. What countries are presently providing you with your traffic?

What goals do you have in mind for your blog?

KKM, I located your blog from your signature and took a look at it. I see you are using AdSense.

I also noticed that your site states are available for the public. You are only getting about 5 visitors to your blog a day. The first thing you need to do is to increase your traffic. You need traffic in order to convert any advertising. In addition, there are some who have certain traffic requirements before they will accept you into their program.

Take a look at this thread which will help you find many ways to increase your blog traffic 21 Ways to Increase Blog Traffic

So I can said I am really really an amateur on this. But I am really keen to know what works best so I ponder over this forum, which is great for me.

I am not sure how to increase traffic to my blog 2. What I am doing is try try try.

I took a very quick look. It seems as if you have a title tag of Around The World. When a person visits your blog, that is what is shown in the blue strip at the very top of the browser. Search engines also use it.

There are many blogs that make very good money with AdSense. There are others that don't do as well. That is one of those things that you will need to see just how it works for you. I would give AdSense a chance to see how it performs for you.

Keep in mind, that it is going to take traffic in order to achieve reasonable results no matter what you use. At the moment, getting more traffic to your site is an important issue.

KKM, since you have been getting 5 visitors or less per day it is very important that you work on getting more traffic.

Simple things such as adding more content and making your blog more interesting are among the many things you can do to help increase your traffic.

As far as seeing results, you might want to set a goal for yourself. You might want to aim for 25 visitors per day. When you reach for that go for 50 a day, and then 100 a day. You might want to start off with a higher goal in mind and shoot for that.

The same thing goes for your earnings. Establish a goal and try to reach it. When you reach it, then try for a higher goal.

When it comes to a timeframe the important thing to remember is to be patient. Things can and often do take time. When people aren't patient they sometimes do things they shouldn't in order to try to make things move faster and often end up doing more harm than good.
