    Hello all,

    Bit of background:
    I still feel I am relatively new to the whole world of online business etc. I'm 16 years old and my latest project is a revision website because exams will be starting here (in the UK) in a few months.

    I made one of these last year but now I'm onto new exams and want to make something bigger and better.
    My current URL is: www.revisemenow.com
    The GCSE section is from last year (looks a bit bad), but AS is what I'm doing now.

    ANYWAY:
    This site will be free to use, however for fun I thought of including a donations page :D

    The audience will be 16/17 year olds from the UK.

    I would like to know:
    1) What people would recommend as a good way of making money through the site, e.g. PPC, CPM etc and which ones are known to be good. Atm I'm currently using adsense but I want to know if there's better ways.

    2) What would be the best way of getting visitors to the site. My current plan is word of mouth (friends at school), posting bulletins on myspace (on my friends accounts - legitimate accounts) and of course natural SEO. However are there any other options of spreading the word?

    Thanks,

    Kizza
