A quickie post today, but one that raises a pretty good question I think.

Mark Sierra from MeandMyDrum.com recently changed his theme design. It looks great, it really does, but it was one of his comments that really caught my attention…

BloggerContests commented, and I quote ” I think you will have more requests to display ads in your site from now on.”

Hmm, interesting. I know that’s something that I never really thought of before. I mean, I do know they look at traffic numbers, readership/subscriber numbers, etc and so forth.

But design? Really? I dunno. I’ve seen some pretty fugly blogs with some pretty serious numbers, haven’t you? (Unless of course they’re faked, which is a whole ‘nother article )

What do you think. Could design attract or repel an advertiser?

Never stop pushing forward!

I’m still super busy putting the final touches on a rather large blog project for every one, but had to stop to give you something simple yet tasty to devour in the meantime.

Kinda like a really good soup

It’s common knowledge in the web world that readers LOVE lists, especially simple ones that can help earn some cash ;)The 10 tips I share here may seem general and even “common sense” to some, but they are very useful and in-fact, sometimes largely overlooked. Ironically, the “obvious” usually is.
