How long before money flows?

IE6 / sp2 saves them fine as jpegs from here.

However, you may wanna try deleting you cache, including offline content.

Another thing you can do is select, Tools, Internet Options, Settings, View Objects... then if there is anything that doesn't have a status of "Installed" delete it.

Then close the browser, open the browser and try saving the jpeg from your site with IE again.

Ok the jpg problem is now resolved.
There was a problem on the server side.
My hosting company has fixed it.
I thank all of you again for all of your help and suggestions.

Lemmy, assuming you are from we-r-sex, how do I re-submitt sites to your link list?
You originaly brought this problem to my attention by declineing my site submission.
Now when I re-submitt it returns a link already sbmitted response.

Shoot me an e-mail to lemmy at we-r-sex dot com with the site details and I'll see if I can get it in there. Glad you got the problem fixed. |cool|

I've had the same problem with only being able to save as bmp, some times I've had to reboot. Well you know how to fix it now. It can be quite frustrating.

I agree with the backgrounds, to busy, too much, and as said take away from the ads. Of course your ads should be the most important on your pages. Do you know how your ads pull? Thats the biggest mistake I see people make. You should be tracking your ads to make the most of them. Honestly your ads are not real exciting, exciting enough to be clicked on, just my two cents. To me, using or even finding the right ads, is one of the most important parts of making money. That and to get the most out of your traffic with the right ads.

Looks like you've got the getting listed and traffic, just need to make the best of the ads. Often it is trial and error.

Did I read that right, your conversion is 1:4000 at the sponsor? Or did you add any extra zero? Should be around 1:400, but could vary.

Ronnie, how do you track your ads and what makes an ad exciting?

I use phpadsnew to track mine. It's an incredible script and it's free.. Course the new one takes a little learning. I am still using an older version, shows me how my ads work, so works for now. One of these days I need to upgrade. The script has been mentionedon this board a few times.

As for better ads, usually it is trial and error. Not a real good answer. An ad might do well for me, while it does'nt for another webmaster. Just like a sponsor might do well one one person, but not for another.

The biggest thing I see people do wrong is not targeting close enough. If your doing a site for mature bbw's, show them mature bbw ads and of course sites that have mature bbw's on the tour. I know it sounds like common sense, but many people miss the boat. I saw one site the other day, that had a lesbian banner, but the site had nothing to do with lesbians. If your doing a footjob site, have ads and a sponsor that show footjobs or talk about them. You might get away with a foot fetish site, but with one that actually shows footjobs, you'll have a better chance of getting sales and clicks.

Of course some animation in the ad can help. Bigger ads do better some times. Keep them fresh, ads will go stale over time. Odd sized ads can make a difference. Great text or good smack with an ad can make a big difference. Talk to the surfer, get them excited, give them a reason to click. Watch tv, read magazines, read newspapers, how do they motivate people? You'd be surprized, you'd think an ad would pull great, but it might pull crap, you dont know sometimes. But if you track, your one step closer.

When I make a ad rotation, I add at least two if not more banners, when possible. Thats rotating in one spot. For one you have something to compare too. Also, if one is weak, you have another that might get some clicks instead of losing them all on one ad.

Some times you can track your ads, like for tgp galleries. But if you use banners you've already tracked elsewhere, you shoiuld have a better shot at more clicks and sales.
