Hi guys,

Thanks for the positive words. As I said in my original post, I know that some people experience higher payouts on certain domains than with ND for what appear to be inexplicable reasons. We do have the same feed provider as Sedo, but we have different ways of apportioning revenue. We pay your portion of exactly what we receive from our advertising provider, whereas Sedo pay a click priced generated by themselves, rather a direct amount which they receive from their ad provider. I saw a report last month in the UK that financial advertising is actually proving less viable online than in print and TV for financial advertisers, so it could be that the financial clicks, while better paying than most other sectors, is not the be all and end all that many people believe it to be.
That same report actually surprised me by saying that the sector which was by far ahead of all other sectors (actually double the revenues of the next sector down in the list) was Recruitment. I have to say, I've worked a lot with domainers, so many of whom have said "I've got a great portfolio of financial domains", but very few have said "I've got a great portfolio of recruitment domains". Finance, incidentally, was 4th in the list of advertising revenue for 2007 in the UK.

Sorry, just my little interjection there. I suppose I, and everyone reading this, should go and enjoy the bank holiday weekend.
