    $0.40 per 1000 PPC? It is cheap
    If you are talking about $0.40 CPM then it is not cheap but normal

    If I am not wrong, that is a pretty high income! I don't think you should increase it just like that & wait a while before trying anything.

    ya man.. that makes sense..
    i have 225 members within a week... and im having problems with my dns... 50%+ cant log into my site so i guess i would have much more members.. still getting tons of hits i need to stick some advertisement on there i will be able to cover costs without selling ads.
    :)

    dp-booster is right. Promote your site first. Seems like a good start however.

    You also have to take context into account. If you site is about dogs and I'm selling computers, $0.40 is expensive but maybe not if I'm selling dog-related items. Although personally I'd wait until you have more members which goes back to dp-booster's point.

    well its my first site looks very plain... no ads... www.starbux.co.uk
    im currently having dns problems so im transfering my site to another host hopefully it will help.
    so £10 a day for my first site is good ya? ive covered my costs after day 3 and on day 6 ive paid for my hosting for 6months+ so i dunno if i should sell this site.. start again... or carry on with it?
