Internet advertising delivers better ROI compared to other media. That is why it is attracting more advertisers.

Amazing how there's all this sales/business activity and cash flow and yet more and more people are broke compared to 3+ years ago. Something's fishy.

The poor may be poorer (and there may be little left of the "middle class") ... but the rich are definitely getting richer, IMHO.

Good info and stats in this thread, thanks ... one can easily see why newspapers and traditional publishers are hurting! :yell:

Happy Holidays,
Jeff :santa:

Who's broke? I'm earning 5 times as much this year as I did 3 years ago. Maybe you need to evaluate what you're doing because if it's the same thing as 3 years ago you may be on the wrong boat.

Perhaps you could start a thread to teach the rest of us what we are doing wrong.
Everyone I know is losing their revenue share year after year. Yahoo/Bing have gone into self destruct mode and google are getting richer whilst their outbound payments are shrinking. Maybe I'm on a different planet or some parallel universe ? :lol:
