I do remember. But I had to look up your alias to see your real name. You aren't the only one that has asked. I enjoy doing it and now can't imagine doing anything else.

The Lake Martin site is still the majority of the income on the Lakes Online network, but the traffic of the other lake sites (cumulative) is far greater (now to a factor of 11). It's a matter of getting the word out. However, the marketing problem now is that so many people have been saturated with telemarketers and soliciters for everything from Yellow Pages, Local.com, etc., It's difficult to get people to listen to you on these other lakes when they've never heard of you.

I hear about the prices that YellowPages.com charges and it's astronomical. Lake sites are a niche, and maybe only 20% of the total population even care. The ones that do care are passionate about their lake. For the prices I charge I would be in the red if I hired the programming and design work instead of doing most of it myself. I don't want to be a site of a few high paying advertisers. I want to help as many people as possible, and figuring out how to do that is the challenge.
