The other day, while celebrating a $300 day in revenue on one of the sites, we went to dinner and gave the food server a $60 tip. We also donated to cancer research.

Wow - you are doing extremely well. And it's very inspiring to see that you are giving something back so generously with your kindness and charitable contributions.

Why the May numbers are missing the dollar sign?

The June numbers have it, but the May numbers do not.

Coincidently, just the amount for $9.91 has the dollar sign, which is a one digit number ...

Strange, isn't it ?

Nothing more than poor photoshopping on my behalf.
If you're at all familiar with adsense and their TOS, displaying the eCPM and CTR in the middle columns is illegal. So, I cropped it out, and then moved the totals over so the image wasn't super wide. I just did that real quick and didn't really notice it until you just pointed it out.
All of those figures are true and accurate.

If necessary, I will provide another screen cap.

I don't want to polemicize on this, but if you are at all familiar with adsense and their TOS (as I am ), you should know that even that screenshots are prohibited.
Only Gross Payments, i.e. the amount in your check, is allowed to be disclosed.
You can even get a picture of you holding the check and that's fine.

Now, I really don't care about following the rules that hard, but I just wanted to make it clear for the audience.


And congratulations for your success and such a nice car !!

Congrats Brian, that's amazing! I'm thinking about starting up a forum and I am now convinced that I want to use vB and vBSEO

Can't go wrong with either if you're going to make a forum, or anything for that matter, its best to do it right the first time.

Anyway, I posted a short update in the reviews forum:

It's been just over 9 months since i installed, and this month i'm on target to double my traffic yet again (april 1- may 1). stats graph posted in the other thread.

Joe, the M3 is not a luxury car. It's a sports car. It's widely considered one of the best sports cars ever made. Its straight-6 engine held "The best engine" award for many years. Everyone that knows just a little bit about cars is horrified that someone could call an M3 a "luxury car".

I'm sorry to say this, but it's a disgrace. If you was a woman, I'd let it pass, but...

It would be a "luxury" for me to have some a great "sports car".

That's a riot. A car is a car is a car is a car...
