    Nahh Brian isn't right!
    If webmaster visit digg or even Plenty Of fish the chances of them clicking on an ad is slim. Unlike a horny man who is not familiar with "Adsense" going to either Digg or POF.
    I'll bet if Plenty of fish were for webmasters that 901.000 would be 1/2 or less than that

    visitor of plentyoffish click more ads than digg. you should know that digg users seldom or rarely click the ads because they dont care about other stuffs. but visitor of PoF will click anything to get more partners. :D

    That much, huh? I don't know...maybe, maybe not, but I consider myself a business man, as many of you consider yourselves to be. You don't believe ANYTHING right off the bat.

    PlentyOfFish has, roughly, 5 million hits.

    A half a percent, if that, clicks on ads.

    How much do they get paid for each click?

    Now do the math.

    Maybe, maybe not.

    After doing the math, and using common sense, I'd bet no.

    But it's a good one!

    That is an actual real check...do some research on it...also check out shoemoney, he makes tons too.
    But POF is such an ugly design that people clicking around prob accidently click the ads placed around....

    Plentyoffish is a perfect example of how to get plenty of people to keep coming back (to look for more 'fish') and possibly click on the ads to expand their search for the ultimate fish.

    I bet Yahoo Singles and Adult Friend Finder are paying a small fortune to advertise on PoF.

    That check is probably real from Google. What about Yahoo and AFF though? Huge payout, I'm sure!

    Maybe, because people there are in a different mood when they visit the site.

    They are in a clickable mood, they click on anything that comes their way.
