Although that sounds impressive, business is slow in the retail market which is why I always look to find something new, interesting, and creative. I try to diversify. The downside to that, as I've mentioned to you on another thread, I tend to spread myself thin at times and need to scale back to regain control.
Adwords is good. But if you're not careful, it can be unnecessarily expensive. You need to pay close attention to your campaigns. Yahoo!/Overture and MSN's Adcenter can be less expensive alternatives and still be very effective depending on your niche. Still the only big name that caters to the adult industry is Adbrite. I know there are others, but Adbrite has had the time to develop their brand.
