2004 was the year Adsense was born, and the rest is history. :) Haha. SEO. Links=currency.

Ad networks allow profit-sharing and placement restrictions, but is network dependent. BAGONG KAALAMAN! Link ads are more PR dependent than traffic dependent. Advertisers love bloggers because of the content. Content advertorial.
