Monetizing…

Duncan Epping · Nov 14, 2008 ·

Some of you have already noticed that I’ve added some Google Adsense blocks to my site. I’ve never been a huge fan of advertising blocks but with the amount of traffic these days it would be nice to be able to pay my hosting bill with Adsense blocks. I just had to upgrade my hosting account for the second time within a year, which is a good thing cause people are reading my website and visiting on a regular base.

Anyway, I will also be looking into changing my wordpress theme, so if anyone got some good tips or is missing something at the moment let me know and I’ll add it to my “under consideration” list.

    Hi Duncan,

    I’m using a free theme from UBD. Those guys had recently designed a custom theme for John Chow, a famous canadian blogger. They’re doing great job. It does not mean that you must have the same theme…. -:)… but there is a lot of ressources and free themes arround….

    I runned into same issues with my hosting provider who suspended my account once, because at high traffic. I guess it was because of a DIGG, so my website was under heavy load and used 60% of processor at the hoster’s server. I put on some adsense to help me paying the bills also.

    Are you on dedicated server?

    Cheers
    Vladan
