@drall, two quick questions.

Are you still seeing the same pattern in the site's traffic numbers?

And this:

we monetize the site via a combination of 70% direct ad sales, 20% adsense ads and a handful of direct discrete affiliate agreements 10%

Not implying anything here, but is there any possibility that, say, the 70% direct ad sales, can be construed as or mistaken for as paid links? I only ask because of a blast from the past moment when reading a summary of an SMX session.
