I actually used the same thing on my website as a coupon code for Cyber Monday, and it's a perfect way to catch the attention of the visitor on your site without an annoying pop-up.

I had one friend actually describe my site as being like the "box of chocolate" from Forest Gump ... each time you visit, you're never quite sure what you're going to get. I always have the hope/desire not to have to make any major changes to my theme for a long long time ... but then I get bored. If I'm perfectly honest, the main reason I change so much is that I actually enjoy tweaking my theme more than I enjoy writing posts. ;-) As for ads, I really like "scientific" way that you approached your decision ... examine which ones are performing best, and attempt to get more eyeball on them. Personally I'm moving more and more away from any advertising on my Todd's Tips blog ... my "purpose" there is not to make a few bucks a month selling other people's stuff. Ultimately, over time, I'd like that site to "sell" my brand/reputation ... which if I do it right should be worth a heck of a lot more than I would make from even the best performing flashy banner ads. .-= Todd Morris´s last blog ..<a href="http://tmtips.com/todds-weekly-reader-12-04-09/" rel="nofollow">Todd’s Weekly Reader 12-04-09</a> =-.
