Three sites of mine... about Linux, Day Tripping and Scrapbooking

    http://desktoplinuxathome.com (I try to keep this one updated)

    http://southernontariodaytrips.com (I let people submit new trips, don't do much myself on this site)

    http://croppingnews.com (my wife keeps this one updated)

    I have PR4 on the first two sites and get a little over 1000 hits a month on both. The scrapbooking site is new, so not much traffic there yet. I am making very little money on adsense (like $0.17/day avg) and amazon orders.

    Any suggestions for me? I know the sites don't look THAT great, especially the day tripping one, but looking beyond that, what should I do with these sites?

    These are pretty vauge questions. If you ask with better detail it is easier to answer.

    About the daytripping site .. it needs a bit more about why the site is there and a lot less clutter. Consider asking yourself, "Why will someone take the time to post some good travel reviews when the website is less than appealing?". Just 1 opinion.

    As I always suggest, you may want to consider moving your ads to the left side of the page. This normally helps to increase CTR.

    Ok, thanks for the advice, I've moved the adsense to the left on desktoplinuxathome.com and I've completely re-arranged things on southernontariodaytrips.com.
