educating advertisers
When I returned from the walk this Sunday night, I had over 250 emails in my Yahoo account needing attention. I JUST got through the last of the emails, which required sending a few prospective advertisers pricing for links here. If you build it, they will come. That’s my new mantra. Despite PR dropping all over the internet, my content is still the same, and my worth is still the same. I’m not adjusting my prices for the PR drop. Lots of people who aren’t selling sponsored links dropped, and I’m in good company. Forbes.com was among the sites that dropped - do you think being linked there is worth less now? I don’t. When PR goes down across the board like this, I don’t think a price adjustment is needed. I think advertisers need to be given reasons as to why I’m worth the same price that I was worth 2 months ago.

Sounds like inflation in reverse.
I wish PayPerPost felt this way. Even with my traffic shooting up the PR6 opps are shielded. Sorta silly.
