As part of the future plan they would let you to sell some percentage of your banner exchange traffic (up to 50% probably). However, no one is blocking you from selling your banner exchange (e.g. you can register your website, but upload a banner and target URL of someone who is paying you). This way you are promoting their website, product, whatever, on multiple other websites using your traffic as a banner exchange. As I said, AdMatchup.com is promoting free banner exchange services for common good, and will have more features for members to advertise for multiple people, sell their traffic, or more. Hope you join! Cheers, @Loy AdMatchup.com is promoting free banner exchange at the time.

Sure there are lots of good blogs out there, that nobody is reading (and that will always be the case). But building up niche content will take you a hell of a long way. I think one of the problems though is that some bloggers spend a lot of time expunging their views on the world and believing it is quality content - that is not necessarily the case. Sure - one or two may be interested in what you have to say - but if you want quality content that appeals to a big chunk of the market then you have to write credible content that reaches that market. Bloggers sometimes get a little wrapped up in their own worlds and opinions and then wonder why only a handful of readers find their story interesting... Dunno - just something to bear in mind For all the tips and tricks, I still think quality comments trumps everything else.
