					<description>Thanks for the suggestions!

I will try to apply them, without upsetting my girlfriend. She doesn't like the ads at all, and it's she who writes the content... :)

I wish it were $50 a month, but for August it was only about $7 :(
There's not much difference between the channels: the link box is marginally better, and the wide ad between articles is the worst...</description>

					<description>That's a lot of traffic to monetize (from my view at least). It should doing at least the range of $50-100 adsense a month?

One suggestion is to put ads on the first fold. That means user can see the ads without scrolling down. It can be tough to balance appearing &quot;over ad&quot; and revenue.

Put the long adsense link unit directly below the tabs and blend in.
Put a 125x125 unit immediate above the Category instead of the long unit below.

I see that you are using channel, see which position is not performing and move them around.

Good luck!</description>
