I still hate the idea... lol. I ignore them anyway, and I'm a big
on-line shopper. That is... I ignore them when I do see them in my
occasional minutes of IE use... I have FF and Avant both set-up to look
for anything vaguely like ad sense or a banner and remove it. Do people
really make significant money off of these things? Perhaps I should add
something to one of our promo sites.

Adsense...

I am slowly removing all traditional affiliate/banner promotions
from my sites after I saw about 2 months of Adsense results...

Yes... I am so pleased with the results I am removing all other affiliate
things like CJ etc.

Can't hurt to try. You might like the results. I know I did.

Are we witnessing the birth of the online 'out-of-town-super/hyper-market'

Moving away from the traditional towards the new. E.g. shops closing down
in the town centre because all their customers are shopping at the new
out-of-town mall. Or in your case, moving away from the old banner ads to
the new, improved Adsense format.

You got it - it's now a well trod path. Trash the opposition with bright
lights and knock down prices. When there's no competition left you have
the market to yourself.

Neither!

None of them will make you rich.

Publishers have always received a piss-poor, insulting rate. Adsense may
be marginally more which is why you hear from the former banner-showers
about how fantastic it is because they are now only getting a poor rate as
opposed to the piss-poor they have been used to.

I am currently trialling Adense. Unless you have a hugely busy site, then
you won't make much income from them.

At which point you increase your prices (or lower your payments) and
really stitch the public....

Any similarity to large supermarkets in the UK and USA is purely
intentional.
