This was a great article. I read it more in depth over on problogger.net. The “Avoid Ads” part confused me a bit. Hopefully someone over there can help answer my questions in the comments.
Hey Sean, thanks for the comment. I think what Darren was trying to say in a big picture kinda way, that to develop/create your own products & content that people can buy.
