Blogsnob

This entry was published at least two years ago (originally posted on March 11, 2002). Since that time the information may have become outdated or my beliefs may have changed (in general, assume a more open and liberal current viewpoint). A fuller disclaimer is available.

This is nice to know — I just signed up with BlogSnob to display little text ads (you should be able to see the ad on the right side, between “Books” and “blog rings/links”). I display links to other people’s blogs, and my link gets displayed on other people’s blogs. I just checked my stats, and since I signed up on the 7th — just four days ago — my ad has been displayed 208 times, and I’ve had 6 people visit my site from my BlogSnob ad on another site. This gives me a 2.88% click-through rate, which while it doesn’t sound very high, when ad banner click-through rates are commonly reported at somewhere around .25% or lower, it’s pretty good. I’ll be staying with these guys.

I was having some problems getting the code to validate, but just got a little help from ServMe (FriedKitten), and now everythings validating and displaying without a hitch. Woohoo!
