A suggestion to help the site generate more revenue.... looks like the 'in' thing for web advertising these days.

and this site does generate more than 20 mil PV / month right?

Yeah, because mainstream Google has loads and loads of gaming ads just ready and waiting for a venue

Well it need not be about RPGs... it could be computer gaming ads. Flipped through the latest Dragon lately?

20,000,000? Goodness, nowhere near. Not even a tenth of that!

Let's see.... roughly 50,000 per day across the whole site and messageboards. 50,000 x 30 = 1,500,000.

RPG.net runs google ads sometimes. Sometimes they are relevent to RPGs - I know for a while, FRP Games advertised with google.

Other times, they aren't, but are quite amusing. Like ads for garden gnomes.

Anyway, for lower traffic sites they pay by the number of clicks. Probably wouldn't generated much, but the ads aren't too intrusive. Found money, I think.

Ok when I type role playing games in Google I get

Roleplaying Game Sale
D&D, AD&D, d20 - New and Classics
RPG Downloads, Books, Miniatures

Hatch A Dragon
In Shalkith, you are the dragon!
Create, train, and battle today.

on the right, with webrpg.com as the first link.

I think both are relevant. I also believe adwords scans ur page to throw up keywords as well, so if there's an article about Transylvanian Peanut butter it'll throw up relevant keywords.

Worth exploring? Leave it up to the big kahuna.
