From the minimal traffic the site gets...approx 15 hits per day, I actually make around $25 month in bans and $10 per month with adsense.After discovering Mark and then your blog, I really started to get focussed on my bans sites.I have read almost everyone of your How To posts and have used your Niche Store Checklist exhaustively.I put up my 2nd store on the 4th June (following your Checklist) and between the 2 stores I earnt $133 in June and this month to date is $91.I fully expect to grow this and I&#039;m no longer getting distracted by other things. I also purchased 30 min backlinks and have created 1 toolbar to date.I will be incorporating blogs and developing my bans stores into authority sites.Most of this can be contributed to the selfless help you continually offer and I take this opportunity to thank you for it and wish you a speedy trip back onto the path you choose.Regards

The current toolbar is only compatible with IE and FF.  That&#039;s due to the limitations of the software I use to create the toolbar.  Currently, I&#039;m thinking using a different method for creating the toolbar that might open more possibilites as far as browsers go.  I&#039;ll have to research that.  To be honest, though, that project is on the backburner because I&#039;ve let some things around the house fall to the wayside and I&#039;m working on those right now, then I&#039;ll get back to my BANS and blogging stuff.Rochelle</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The Flock browser is one I&#8217;m not familiar with.
