That's great your friend has gotten that kind of exposure. One thing though, 1,000,000 "hits" isn't 1,000,000 visitors. In fact if there are 20 different files on the home page, then divide the million by 20 to get total visitors, which would actually be 50,000.

I wouldn't worry too much about getting that amount of traffic at the beginning of your new endeavors unless you're spending a ton of $$ on advertising as you're in a compeitive space that will take time for your sites to rank high for money terms.

Yes direct advertising, affiliate links, banner ads etc. should make you some decent money once you have the traffic along with adsense, YPN etc.
