Total made only around $280, only $180 which has been paid to me so far.
Is this typical? Seems like the site hit a wall lately too, just been kinda discouraged past 2 months about this site

      Yea this does seem pretty low. Where is the traffic coming from? Is it targeted?

    All I use is Adsense and Linkshare to monetize. I've tried adbrite among others to no avail. I only used Adsense for like the last 4 months tho.
    I think the problem is that my site does not have a specific niche and I don't get targeted traffic

    I have had a look at your site, its well put together.

    Have you considered using a quality cpa network? Also I see links to purchase related products does that mean that you are not receiving a commission for any of these products that are sold? Even with adsense or Adchoices I would expect you to make at least between $377 to $3773 from all that traffic based on a 1 to 10 cent per visitor rule of thumb.

    How about feeding in Amazon affiliate links? For example, you've got a review for the Kindle Fire, but no affiliate link of any kind... surely it's screaming out for it??

    There is a lot that you can do to improve traffic on your site. Just one tip is here: If you allow Disqus or comment luv for commenting and make them do-follow, even for a short while, you'll see your traffic increase drastically.
