Glad to see that the pageviews didn't dip after launch.
Question: how did you initially get advertisers? I'm assuming that the $500 ($462 last month) is from your sponsors adhering to something like this:
monthly fee = pageviews * $X.
Did they pay anything up front, or do you charge at the end of the month? Feel free to not answer if these questions are too prying. [I'm launching a small (side project) content site soon, so I am curious]
Last month I used InfluAds (think along the lines of "The Deck") which paid on a CPM model.
This month I've switched to a flat rate for a 30 day run. I'm selling ads directly (AppSumo and MediaTemple), and through BuySellAds (no one has bought through this, but I think it's because I'm charging more).
If I know the sponsor well, I have no problem charging at the end of the month. If you have any more questions feel free to shout!
