		<description>Right, this is why you have to think carefully about what you&#039;re doing. I don&#039;t have text link ads on this site, so it doesn&#039;t matter to me if the Alexa rank drops. If you&#039;re concerned about Alexa rank then you need to do things that convince people to visit the blog rather than just read it. There&#039;s a difference....</description>

		<description>A 3 figure monthly income, that should say. Three figure annual and I&#039;d take the ads off completely and blog for the sake of blogging :)

(BTW. This usually exceeds the adsense income on most sites of mine).</description>

		<description>I&#039;ve got blogs that make money (nothing massive, a 3 figure income) though text link ads. I&#039;d hate to think what would happen to that with a reduced Alexa score. Maybe they&#039;d drop off in value, maybe people would be less inclined to pay money for an ad on a lower traffic blog, whatever the page rank.

I don&#039;t know, but it scares me :)</description>

		<description>I don&#039;t think there&#039;s a cut-and-dry answer for every blog. Every blog is different, so for some AdSense will work well and for others it won&#039;t work so well. The key is to realize where you visitors are coming from and plan accordingly...</description>

		<description>Interesting post Eric, never saw it that way before even though the inverse relation makes perfect sense.

I&#039;m not a fan of using adsense to monetize blogs though. I believe in the long run, your RSS feed readers will bring in more money for you through promotions and all.
