On another note though, I would be happy to just be able to make enough each month from the ads to pay for my monthly hosting bill. So I think it's also important for those just starting out to not aim high at first, aim low and realistic.
I have been trying to figure that out myself. I have had adsense and adbrite on, now google I have gotten paid nicely on so far on a per click bases, but it doesn't matter if I am getting $0.05 per click, or $0.95 per click if I am only getting a hand full of clicks per month (in my opinion).
Although, I don't think I really have enough traffic yet to charge CPM either. I get roughly 2,000-2,500 page views per month right now. I am hoping to raise that, but it takes time.

My hosting may range from $10-$20 a month.
