What to do with this empty space?

    I already have a spot set up for TLA in the left menu where "Sponsors" is right now.

    See the blank banner ad at the top of the page? I was wondering what to do with that space. Should I run affiliate banners there? Should I use a banner management system and sell the space myself? Should I use adsense?

    IDEAS!!

    thanks.

    Your Alexa rank isn't great so you might have trouble getting someone to pay for a banner ad there until you get higher traffic figures.

    Personally, I'd remove it and concentrate on your main business, because you don't want people clicking on a banner instead of reading your copy. I'd move it to the bottom and put a related product or program banner in there because people don't tend to click on banners these days (at least as much as they used to).

    I'd also make the title beneath the banner space larger and in another colour, probably blue.

    Hope this helps.

    I got rid of the banner and will focus on getting the site completely finished and getting more traffic. Then I will worry about advertising revenue.
