Hello Darren.. I have been reading your blog content for the last 3 months. The following question is not pertinent to your blog post but I will be glad if you or any other people answer it for me. I am a relatively new blogger. I just wanted to ask you a simple question. When do you think a new blogger should put up adsense ads on his/her blog?

- When he/she creates the blog?

- After one week?!

- After having about 50 posts?!

- After the blog has gained a faithful readership?!

Thank you very much.

Hi Darren,

Thanks for posting a link to my site, and a big thanks for pointing to a very relevant series of posts of your own. I’m slowly working my way through your archives, and haven’t reached this far back yet.

All the best!
Gleb

I get a 404 on the Ed Kohler link. Google seems to have the same problem. Any ideas?
