So undecided on whether to throw some ads on this site or not. Not making it a flashing pinball machine of a site like a ryanair or alike.
A small little disclaimer, I do work within the industry, so I like ads, I like seeing them on sites. Why? Probably professional curiosity, also they have become so ubiquitous with the internet it seems a little unnatural when these banners are missing.

Right! I hope the distinction between the two is fairly obvious, but those who have no idea what CPA, CPC and CPM are please click here, here and here.
