    Thanks, guys.

    The page is too cluttered, I would cut down on the amount of ads that you have.

    That looks better. You still have quite a few ads, but they are not so overwhelming now.

    Just a heads up, I think you may have too many of the Google product referral ads, but I'm not 100% on that. Also, I would think you'd want Adsense on the side bar instead of the Google referrals (unless they've been successful for you).

    I had the adsense on the side bar before but I took it off. I just stuck it back up to see how it will do for me. I think i will keep the arrangement i have now for a month or so to see how it works out for me unless someone has a suggestion on how to do it better.

    i would remove the column next to the menu. some times less ads are better (especially better for CTR ;) ) 20 ads on a page with only 1 click per visitor means 5% CTR, 5 ads on a page with only 1 click per visitor means 20% CTR.

    A bit of advice: When you cut/paste whole articles from other people's site, you should at least have the decency to credit or source them with a link. It's pretty obvious which posts are yours (the poorly written ones) and which were lifted from somewhere else (the well-written, clinical ones). And let's not kid ourself and start denying it, okay?

    This is the second time you have accused me of plagiarism with absolutely no proof. I wrote every article on that site and I don't appreciate the insinuation that I didn't. If you can find proof otherwise then please present it. I am a professional writer with over 5 years of technical and medical-field writing experience. I have two papers published in the medical field and have been a freelance writer for large organizations for over 3 years.

    If some of the articles appear "poorly written" then those are probably the ones that I wrote in an effort to tone down the "stuffiness" of the content. Some of the articles I wrote in a different capacity before I started the blog. Some I wrote off-the cuff.

    You better get some proof that I didn't write those articles before you say it publicly.
