This is pretty spiff. Revenue just from that little 123Systems Ad or are you planning some greater service rollout?

It seems like you could ad maybe 3 Square Button ads in various places and still be unobtrusive about it..

Don't get me wrong I don't sell online advertising or anything but your site design would make it really easy to add more inventory and have them still not be distracting.

Thanks. The ads rotate, I have three affiliate links atm. I am currently working on providing an API for this to see how much interest there will be in it. On top of the API I plan on building a monitoring solution which could be monetized. To an extent so could the API (say you get 100 free test an hour and have to pay to get 1000 or some such).

In the mean time I may add more ads but I would hate to detract from the experience for the small userbase.
