This is just wild, unsubstantiated conjecture here, but my guess is that the people that are likely to click ads, and the people that leave comments, are the same group of readers. Things in the footer are likely to be seen by a reader leaving a comment, because the footer is just below the comment box. So, it very well could be effective.

I love the post on better utilisation of the footer. I have an affiliate link in the footer of my reality tv blog for people to purchase The Secret DVD, and the PO Box, but I haven't utilised it much on the other blog. I will definitely look into it.

Great reading list for the day! I have been fascinated with the footers area of sites for some time as they can become boring, and most are.

Hope you don’t mind a link for visual appeal of footer design:

Does this mean I have a footer fetish? :)
