[stuveltje]

Great post DJilla, good advice to follow!

stuveltje, thanks for the head's up on linkworth.com, I'd never heard of them before. I had checked out adbrite a long time ago before I knew what kind of business practices they supported. It's definitely something to consider.

A quick update of where I'm at. Traffic has increased since I began this thread as well as income, slightly. I am no longer tracking the income by site though as it was a pretty cumbersome project, and that time can be better spent on building IMO.

The new template update to each category page is complete and it appears as if it's getting more clicks through to the free-sites which was one of the goals.

As that project is finally finished, I've begun my second project which is rebuilding my other linklist's template to be the site I always wanted it to be, simple and straightforward, I just ran out of time on the first build. For anyone who is interested this is how that new template looks: http://www.depravedpornsites.com/por.../amateurs.html
(it scales much better then it used to and gets rid of a good deal of white space)

this thread has spurred me to get my butt moving on some things too, so thanks very much Preacher |blowkiss| The new design looks awesome, and the second one looks like it'll be just as good. All I have to say is I hope to follow in your footsteps someday and help eliminate tables everywhere, oh css master
