    Looks good so far, but try to blend the Adsense ad better to match your background color.

    Also on the navigation bars down the side, i'd fill the gap between the last link and the bottom of the table on the 'Traffic Categories' and also make the 'Important Links' like the Information, where the table is all filled out with one color rather than the grey and dark blueish color.

    I'd also suggest getting rid of the banner at the bottom of the page.

    the top banner doesn't show on my browser. You should check it again. IN my point of view, the number of ads you put on the site is quite ok.

    Quite frankly, it reminds me of a PHPNuke site. Too blocky. And the gradient menu headings are behind the times.

    The white text on dark gray background is hard on the eyes. Line spacing of text and menu items are too close making readability more arduous.

    Your spiel on the front page is not half bad. But there are no 'calls to action' to suck them in. By the time I read down to your Guarantee, I did not really know what you were guaranteeing in the first place.

    I would seriously, ersiously drop the adsense. People are not going to visit your site to browse - they are there because they want traffic. If you are offering a service they have to pay for, why try to get them to leave via a google ad for a few cents revenue??

    Overall the site looks fine. No real big problems I guess. :) On the offers and products, may consider making it "louder" to capture the visitor attention? Just a thought. :)

    I know this is going to sound stupid, but what's the benefit of generating traffic through one of these campaigns? I've always been put off the idea myself, but thhen again, reading the site, it looks very appealing- which is really what counts! Did some quick math as well and heck, if I get you to do a campaign for an adsense site, with 1 million views for $1400, and a 5% conversion rate, for 5cents per click, I'll be lookiing at a return of $2500 and profit of $1100. Saying all that, I've based my assumptions on everyone getting to see the site in the first place!

    With regards to the site, it's targeted purely at website owners/ developers and basically that means it doesn't need to look overly flash/ fancy. Forget the google ads as well. They won't get a high CTR as it's targeted at website marketers who are looking for a solution.

    Question is: With a good hits rate, does Google pick up on this? I know that traffic has quite a bit to play with ranking in search engines, but does this count as that kind of traffic?
