		<description>Nice figures! Beside the jump in earning due to the private ad deal you did, you must take into account the fact that traffic tends to increase during the months of November through February, declining in March until the end of Summer. Keep up the good work!</description>

		<description>All, thanks for the kind words and encouragement!

Dwayne, I don't think there are any predetermined stats you must have to get private advertisers.  While you will likely be able to charge more the better your stats, I wouldn't let anything stop you from trying to land private ad deals.

Ryan, this site is no longer monetized by AdSense at all.  On my finance site, I think the ad placement is pretty good and the conversions aren't bad either.  Feel free to share any thoughts though, I am always open to ideas.</description>

		<description>I am just wondering how is it possible that you have so low adsense revenues. What is your daily traffic man? With a site like this, you should reconsider adsense palcement. Revenues could doubled.</description>
