    ZachG is right. People from Digg and Reddit are using Firefox with AdBlock or other ad blocking software. You have to try harder to monetize this kind of traffic than just placing an ad box on your site/blog.

    Prolly be better to submit articles to one or a variety of solid PR article directories. Better luck with this.

    For this type of traffic you can't just display some banner or text ads and expect them to convert. You gotta sell a relevant product at the end of your article.
