Have you ever tried creating a multi-author blog? What's your experience like? In the past, I was running a couple of multi-author blogs, paid writers upfront, and recovered my expenses through Adsense revenue. Everything was fine until corona happened. My Adsense revenue dropped and I could not afford to pay the writers. Thus, I stopped accepting articles.
 
I can't say myself I have considered trying a multi-author blog. I think it would be ideal though as it means you would have new quality content on your blog regularly which always helps with traffic and ad revenue as well. I always write for my own blogs at the moment but I tend to hit writer's block a lot which is a shame, I guess with having a multi-author blog, hitting writer's block wouldn't always be a huge issue like it is when you are the only one writing for the blog.

You can run a multi author blog just like a forum, you can allow other bloggers to post on your site. You might even allow them to use their adsense codes on their pages so that they can be compensated.
 
I've a blog as a sub-section to a forum before and we tried to pay writers through real fiat-currency ($) but the adsense revenue just didn't match the expenditure that we had, so we to eventually switch to paying in forum currency which was less popular. I do love the dynamic that multi-author blogs bring though, and there's some brilliant freelance writers out there who can produce the work on an affordable basis -- if you have the revenue from ads to cover it
