Let's say I wanted to make money off this-here blog.
Let's say that instead of taking a part-time job, I poured that time into this site. What kind of traffic would I need?
If I wanted it to equal the revenue from a part-time job, estimating the net income at $150 per week, I would need at least 500,000 visitors monthly.
If I wanted to equal the gross monthly salary earned at minimum wage ($14,872 annually, working off $7.15, although that's not the minimum wage in many states) I would need approximately 800,000 visitors per month.
If I wanted to hit the vaunted six-figure ceiling, I would need approximately 7,500,000 visitors per month.
This is EXTREMELY rare territory. As in notgonnahappen.
All of the above were calculated using the Blog Modelling [sic] Tool, which is available as an XLS here.
