Hi Melody,
I would definitely be interested in having advertisers, but I honestly
don't know how to go about doing it. I tried for a while and didn't
really get much in the way of revenue out of it -- it would take several
hours per month to keep the ads up to date and then a check would come in
for $20 or so (which is great, but I'd rather spend those hours doing
programming work for a potential customer). But the real problem was
the constant amount of attention that it required for such a small return.
If it was a one-time setup that'd be fine, but always having to change
things when ads were turned off, etc. was a pain!
If anyone knows of possible advertisers or anything, I'm definitely
interested!
Chris (who's probably not making much sense at this hour)
P.S. I'm headed up to Chicago for New Year's Eve to hang out with my folks,
so I won't be answering email for a day or so.
