I'm wondering if the title of your blog "Money Under 30" is also a mistake? I know you are trying to find your niche within the blog world of personal finance, but I am turning 31 in two weeks and still plan on reading your articles (which are great for people of all ages). I too have a problem with my weblog title, Yuppie Life Guide(http://yuppielifeguide.blogspot.com), since it isn't for yuppies, but people interested in food, travel, wealth and health. Keep up the good work! Great post. I’m wondering if the title of your blog “Money Under 30″ is also a mistake?

However, I don't see anything wrong with monetizing from the very beginning. I believe smart people can recognize good content even if it is mixed with ads. Still, if you are sure that you wrote a great piece of linkbaiting, then it would probably be wise to consider taking the ads off that post for the first 48 hours or so. As of your blog, now the layout looks good, it seems functional, all you have to do is write interesting things and promote them ;) Good luck! I agree with your points.

I've encountered most of these myself, and on #3, that's highly over-looked. Commenting on other bloggers articles make a huge difference, and also helps get you known in the blogging community. Particularly if they're in the same niche as you. Great post! I’ve encountered most of these myself, and on #3, that’s highly over-looked.
