I protest against the “buggy” in connection with “Opera”!

I don’t think it’s buggy at all! And that few pages who do not work properly, most of them work though if you mask the identity. Opera follows the standard pretty much, something the others don’t!

I really very seldom have to use other browsers instead of Opera! Maybe twice a year or so

Hi andy, you’ve asked me some great questions.
I actually only now figured up that it’s against Google tos, so i should find a better
Solution, it’s a shame as they pay really well for me.

As for Google Adsense only displaying 3 ads, yes, this is a common problem.
I’m trying to find a way to display the 3 Google ads then maybe display other network ads automatically, so far no luck…

Checking alexa rating is very easy, if you want to check yourself all you have to do is go to http://www.alexa.com/ and use the “site info” field on the right side.
Also, if you wish to include it on your site you should place a “Widget”
Just go to http://www.alexa.com/site/site_stats/signup?&qterm=&p=Dest
Fill up the info and Copy/Paste the info.
Just keep in mind that alexa’s rating is not even NEAR correct, they are usually based on Tech users that have their Toolbar installed, so Webmaster and Tech sites are more likely to have higher rating no matter the traffic.
You can install the toolbar yourself and just visit your site several times a day,
This alone should drop you very quickly to the 500k area
ask some of your friends to do the same and you’ve got a 100k site

Yea, Firefox will eventually dominate. However, I am using Safari right now maybe because it’s apple related, I am an Apple fan. Nice post, and keep it up. I will be following you man, not because you were one of the few first people I met, but because your articles are interesting to read.

Here’s some thought:

I thought you couldn’t use GoogleAdsense and Kontera on the same page. It goes against Google policy, no?

It seems like google only let you post 3 ads on your website, any more and it blanks out. That is how it is for me.

Last thing, how are you checking out yourself on Alexa ratings? You must have really good ratings. Because I have too few traffic to even get any information on myself.
