Advertising
Now that I have my site back up and mostly functional, I decided to add a little bit of advertising to the pages. Google seemed like an easy place to start since I already have an account with them, so now you see a little google button on the pages with advertisements. It’s not too terribly intrusive, but it’s still a “trial” thing. I never really wanted to place ads on this site – in the old days the banners and the flashing gifs and sounds were always so distracting. I think the medium as evolved some since then and the ad button I’ve included is tolerable.

Why put it there at all? Well, since this site has grown, so has the traffic. I am happy that other teachers find these resources useful and I love the idea of sharing lessons. My students also access the site to find assignments or supplemental materials. All this traffic has resulted in a lot of money just to run the site. The ads are simply there to offset some of these costs. We’ll see how that goes…
