It costs about $15 a month to run this site. Not a huge deal, but getting that to zero would be nice. I’ve had Google AdSense running for a couple years now (about 4 months on FartDump), and across all four of my sites, I’m making a whopping five cents a day.
AdSense also slows the site down, so it just isn’t worth the hassle anymore. Today I ditched the ads and started sprinkling Amazon Affiliate links around the site instead. I like this approach because one conversion a month can match what I’d get from thousands of ad impressions; and I can actually make the links funny, which is way more fun for me. These fit the FartDump vibe way better than generic ads. That’s a win for me and for you.
