So when I can almost get to your cut off number on one site launched 4 months ago with less that 1000 UV a day. I think that is a strong indicator that this business still has good opportunity for "the little guy" just starting out.

Absolutely. My point was I don't think someone doing this for 2 years full time and doing a total of 5 sales a day should consider themselves successful or close to a breakthrough. If you've done this for 2 years full time and are doing 5 sales a day total you really do need to move on because this industry isn't for you.
