However much you are making, you would be making more if you targeted your sites better. The point you are missing is that if you did this you would not only reduce that three month dip YOU WOULD ALSO BE MAKING MORE MONEY EVERY WEEK OF THE OTHER NINE MONTHS OF THE YEAR. From what you say, you are throwing away about half what you could earn. You call that using your brain?

Nah what I am saying is *because* I target where I do, I make e.g. those figures, whereas if I change my strategy to see NO dip, I ultimately earn less overall (That's not to say I target only North USA, just that's where I concentrate more).

I'm not going to look into it myself and see if there is a better way, because if he is right, then I am wrong, and I'd rather loose a lot of money than find out I am wrong." I genuinely thought that most people here were than better than that. My use of terms like "shit webmaster" were meant to shake up those that needed shaking, but it just seams to have made some people bury their heads deeper in the sand.
I really don't know why I bother. I'm not trying to be popular, I was fully aware when I typed my first post in this thread that I would be lowering my popularity rating with it. But I had hoped that it would at least provoke people into thinking, and that some people would be making more money because of it. But, well, to slightly misquote someone else "The more I learn about people, the more I like dogs."
