You earn not really from blogging but instead from placing ads on your blog. Advertisers will then pay you based on either the amount of clicks generated from your ads or the number of impressions.
Ad campaigns are organized marketing strategies to help advertisers promote and sell their product. As a Nuffnanger, you and your blog will act as host for these campaigns.
No you don't need to have all the 3 types of ads on your blog to earn money but it will increase the chances of earning more money because when ads are more prominent and abundant, advertisers are more likely to advertise on your blog.
There are a few factors that directly correspond with your earnings. Glitterati membership as well as site traffic are however the main ones. So stay loyal to Nuffnang, keep blogging and you shall be rewarded!
This simple algorithm applies to all Glitterati Nuffnangers upon cash out to figure out when your cheque will arrive. Last day of "cash out" month + 30 days processing period + 14th days approximate mailing time. Example: I cashed out on the 19th of July 2012. (31st July + 30 days + 14 days = Cheque will arrive on the 15th of September 2012) For Non-Glitterati members, processing takes longer therefore the processing period lasts 60 instead of 30 days.
As mentioned earlier, bloggers earn by serving Nuffnang ads on their blog so ad campaigns can run on them. Therefore your earnings directly correspond to the number of visits and clicks you get each day on your blog. The higher your engagement, the more you will earn.
Unfortunately there isn't a magic formula that can work for everyone. Blogging is about self-expression and earning money from that is secondary but of course important and motivating. All we can say is blog about the things you're passionate about as it will reflect on your blog.
The main reason your earnings are still zero is due to blog or site traffic. If your traffic is extremely low, then it is normal to have zero earnings. To combat this, start driving traffic to your blog!

You may place your ads anywhere on your blog. However for optimal visibility and performance, we recommend that you place them in the suggested areas on our Add Ads page.
Free versions of Wordpress.com do not allow the use of Javascripts nor the editing of their template's HTML. However, hosting your blog by using Wordpress.org's files on your own domain will allow you to do so if you are able to set the file permission settings through your FTP.
At the moment, Xanga Themes does not support the use of javascript as it prevents the "< script >" tag to be inserted when placing a HTML code into their widgets. Only the old "Look & Feel" page allows the user to insert javascript. You may find the Xanga support forum thread about this here
Nuffnang Ads do not look like Google Ads, are not contextual and is not formatted in any way to look like Google Ads or search boxes so you should not have a problem with putting on Nuffnang Ads on the same page as Google Adsense. Do refer to the Google Adsense Program Policies for further details.
