I’ve been doing some thinking, and I figure it’s time to branch out and test the waters of other advertising systems out there. Therefore, I’ve replaced the AdSense wide skyscraper on my sidebar with a Bidvertiser skyscraper. Bidvertiser is a bid-based system where advertisers bid to be listed on your website. Obviously a lot of advertisers have default bids for any and all websites, as I just checked my bids, and - after having only been a member for a little under an hour - I had a couple hundred ads to approve/disapprove. Originally, I had set it to auto-approve all ads. I’m changing that, due to ad targetting issues. I don’t think you guys need to see ads about house painting.

With a completely new design, and scope, MindFyre Politics will be a challenge for me. I already have traffic coming in to this website, but the new one is - essentially - starting from scratch.
As such, I’ve decided to take on a bit of an SEO challenge, and attempt link exchanging. I’m going about if through a new web forum set up by the editor of The Blog Herald (Duncan Riley). The forum is called Web Log Empire, and it is dedicated to blog link exchanges.
