Look up there.
Up top.
See that neat little bar?.
The ad bar is by a site called Project Wonderful, a site that enables you to "bid" on ad space.
How much for those ads up there ?
The second reason it because I also have PW ads out there. Though affordable, they DO cost money. That ad bar allows me to generate the funds I need to place my ads around other blogs, sites and forums on the web. Having the bar on MY blog means I don't have to take the money I earn selling my work and invest it in advertising. That means I can keep my prices as low as possible.
