    'seotherapy' thats a best figment of your imagination. I dont think Shawn would allow google/MSN or any other to take over. This community is really rocking and really should be profitable!:D

    But the best thing here is, theres an revenue sharing feature... thanks shawn!

    I would say yes. I remember reading somewhere that Shawn earns $42,000 a year from this site. Not sure if its true.

    DP would be gone if it was losing money. Shawn wouldn't run it out of the goodness of its heart. He'd change it around to make it profitable.

    I expect he makes $15-30k per month. If he was to run a DP newsletter he'd make thousands from sponsors but I guess he must me making money elsewhere.

    I think Shawn should hire someone to maintain DP. There is surely a problem with the SQL server of DP...

    I imagine they clean up. Server costs may be high, but Adsense etc easily covers it.
