My guess is that prejudices against digg, stumbleupon, del.icio.us, and reddit traffic are similarly offbase.

I need to work on my adsense strategies – thanks for the reminder of how much I suck at it.

The key is traffic, and it's free. Here is why I say so...I personally know a couple "seo experts" that I actually term "mass content spammers" but their whole business model is based around pages, and loading content pages with natural flowing keywords, yet minimal knowledge value. 1 guy in particular has betwen 60,000-80,000 active pages and makes approx $35,000/mo on AdSense. Though each page was worth ~$0.50, he just adds more pages to earn more. Not sure where I am going, so I will close with...23,000 visits is a great thing especially when they are free. Gotta cut before I delete this comment. Be careful on the SEO comments:) BTW, conversion rate can be somewhat irrelevant in true organic results. The key is traffic, and it’s free.
