BROTHER CAN YOU SPARE A "CLICK"?

    I told a friend of mine I was making money online and she immediately assumed I was hosting a porn site because "they are the only sites that make money on the web". 

     It is true that internet porn is a big business, but it is by no means the only game in town.  Sites like Etsy, Amazon and Ebay are big business too and there are  huge numbers of independent blogs and websites for every topic under the sun.  Most are "free".

     People who produce "free" web content are just as dependent on advertising as are the network television stations or newspapers.  Think about it, all over the web people are producing content with the hope that someone will check out their sponsors.  For most it is a passion that they will pursue regardless of pay, but wouldn't it be nice for them to get some sort of pay for the hours of work they put into creating their blogs/webpages.

     Knowing what I do now, when I visit a blog or website I "click" on at least 1 ad to help the producer. It only takes a moment and I feel like it is only fair. If more of us would do that we might see a surge in quality content on the web.
