My main 'traffic-collection' is done through AdsVert, a site/program which allows automatic link-trades among members. Everytime two of your sites displaying the six-ad AdsVert-code are opened, three of your AdsVert-ads are shown on other members' sites.

That's good; except that a few members take advatage of the automatic acceptance of the link-trades, and the credits we 'earn' by Vertising and promoting various other websites (which are automatically good trades, like purchasing space on a cheerleader's tank-top) are STOLEN AND WASTED by webmasters who take the manual AdsVert-code and place it beyond the reaches of common viewers' curiosity.

Whenever I see another BAD TRADE, I send the trader the following message:

To the webmaster here: JEEZ! THE ROBBERY YOU'RE MAKING!!

I am a member of AdsVert. I'm glad you're one too; but think of all the other members! When you put the AdsVert-code into a webpage, you are making a link-trade with up to 7 other members everytime anyone visits your page.

Perhaps you've made it part of a template, in which case I'd suggest you change it to make the AdsVerts appear as-near-as-possible to the top. Because, the way it ends up on pages like 'the submitted-address notice,' it's like adding your 15-second commercial in the middle of a late-night info-mercial rather than in the middle of a mid-afternoon football-game.

If you've found a large group of people who are willing to wait around half-an-hour AFTER THE MAIN EVENT to find out 'who's sponsoring the main-event' and you target them exclusively, your setup is fine; but if your visitors are like most people, they're there (for the main event) and then on their way out.

If you can't move the AdsVerts-trades up to the main-event, you would delete them (supposing you're NOT a thief.)
