Most of the bloggers I like best don't display any ads; they just post their stuff because they want to and I love them for it. Really successful ones like Fat Cyclist and bikesnobnyc have ads, but I don't know if they make any money worth mentioning from them.
Some of you may have noticed the return of ads to my blog. I don't feel any need to explain why they are there, but I think it is best if my readers know how they work. The type of ads I am displaying now have been chosen by me, thinking that they may hold some interest for my readers. That's why there are non-cycling ones like Footie Pyjamas or Fortune Cookie Soaps or Donkey Tees
(I think I need the WWF one).
(I think I need the WWF one).The ads I'm displaying have nothing to do with a "pay-per-click" kind of thing. Click once or twenty times, I won't know the difference. If you click one of my ads and end up buying something from the site, I will get a commission on the sale. I feel kind of cheap somehow, when most of my best blogging pals don't do it. My reality, however, is one in which something I spend this much time on should, ideally, make a little money.
Nobody really likes ads. I know this. Thanks for sticking with me in spite of them.
Yer Pal,
