Does DH get money if people click on the new ads? If so, let us know!

I'd click a few times a day! :D

    I like how the ads have come to the conclusion that we're really interested in Wmsburg. Maybe we want to live there!! :roll: :idea: :twisted:

    This is a tough one... :)

    Here's the deal: Google Ads are realistically the easiest and least intrusive way to pay the bills at Dailyheights.com.

    Right now, we get enough from Google ads to pay for the bandwidth, and buy about a round of drinks per month (or pay you guys for your camphone photos of con artists and gas siphoners). It would be great if that revenue increased to the point where I could put money toward larger events, or even (gasp) compensate myself for the hundreds of unpaid hours I have spent developing this site and chasing down Anonymous Guest.

    So while I would not advocate random clicking for the sake of clicking (Google has algorithms to detect that), please definitely click on any ads of interest... There is no harm in that!

    I read an article on "click fraud" in the WSJ not long ago! Who knew?!
