Well it seems the pages load as fast as usual, but then for 10 seconds or so I see in the status bar that it's loading ads from the ad server.

Then again, I'm one of those people that doesn't...

lol. good luck! :)

I have been considering using it as well. I always thought these types of ads were more ... "sneaky" so to say ... therefore it might be more likely that people will click on...

Hi Dani,

I noticed you're using VibrantMedia contextual links on the forums. How are the results so far? How would you compare it to AdSense?

Well, I still think I'm partly right. There is also the whole issue of "linking to bad neighborhoods", just search Google for that phrase and you'll find a whole bunch of horror stories. Basically,...

I think I read somewhere that you actually loose a little bit of your PageRank for every "regular" link you make. So I would say, yes, use a rel=nofollow on all links that you don't personally...

Did anyone else notice how wildly the AdSense CPM could fluctuate from day to day? It seems it can rise or fall as much as 1000% from day to day, with all other things staying pretty much the same. ...

I agree, unless you're selling something, CPC serves a dubious purpose at best. I spend about 10% mostly as a "feel good" measure of driving targeted visitors who will hopefully bookmark the site...

Matt is saying this isn't really an update but a datacenter change .. whatever that means.

Unfortunatelly, it seems my site is still...

Cool! :) I heard they are pretty selective so I'm reading the GMAT book every day right now. I did get accepted into their undergraduate program when I applied (although I didn't end up going), so I...

Hello everyone,

I have been a webmaster since I was 13 (I'm 22 now). I did some freelance stuff in high school and college, and now I work full-time as a web-developer for an investment bank. I...

One thing I tried is commenting on relavant blogs (and including your URL, of course). Pretty soon your site gets noticed by someone who posts it on their blog. Then it spreads very fast as more...

It has been pretty dead for me (maybe 70% less traffic), especially since I run an education-related site.

about 2 or less (really)
