I often see this question raised by newbies on a number of forums so I thought I would carry out a quick review of my stats and revenue from my portfolio of about 50 websites. The findings were more dramatic than I thought.
Since January 2009 (when I properly started to use TIDs to track where sales came from) my sales have come from:
Review Sites with a number of products on offer: 81%
Product Name Review Landing Pages (i.e. forexboomerangreview.com) : 4%
Blog Review of a product: 2%
PPC Campaign either direct to Sales Page or via lander: 13%
The truth of it is, that of the 50+ sites I own, the majority of sales come from about 5 review sites, ranging from forex robots, paid surveys, wow leveling guides.
I hope this gives some insight into what works for me.

Great info! Since I’m just getting into publishing and looking at monetization strategies, this kindof falls in line with what I had been thinking in the first place.
