People get far too hung up about ads on blogs. As long as you’re open and honest about what you get paid for and what you don’t (i.e. ads are well sign-posted) it doesn’t dilute what you’re writing.

Also, I realise I owe you an apology – I’d thought I had a link to you on my site, just realised I don’t. Can’t say it will improve your impressive stats much though 😉

Don’t worry about making money from the blog – as long as you’re upfront about it, no-one minds. I’ve taken ads on mine for a year now, and it hasn’t caused problems.

Chris…data is fun, isn’t it? I wish I could take a peak under the hood of all the blogs like ours out there!

Top Bird…your blog is great. I read it all the time. LOVE Shelf on Cheshire Street.

Sarah…thanks! Transparency…wonder where I get that from, huh? 🙂

I always read your new posts on my blackberry so today’s the first day I’ve seen the new banner and background which look great! Well done on the numbers – and your transparency too.

Thanks for the mention, Krista – I had no idea my contribution to your visitor numbers was so significant!

I have also been thinking about adding Google Map information to my posts, so let me know how that goes (and where to go to learn how to do it!).
