Well, I managed to get admin's attention on the homepage ads idea..:

Adgrid was $4/month, then $8/month and now $12/month.
Why to pay more for same visits?

Would you mind sharing stats of daily clicks with AdGrid when the price was $4 per month and now?

Actually I can do that.. and I'm not too happy about it.. but if it's for the good of the site I sure can accept the changes, even pay a bit more just to support PTCSolution.
Checking up my previous grid traffic stats here are some details :
Logged at 4th of December to 4th of January, I received ~30.000 visitors within a month at the price of $4.
That translates to an average cost of : $0,000133 / click
Nowadays (28th of February to 28th of March) I received 19.487 visitors also within a month at the price of $8.
That translates to an average cost of : $0,000410 / click
However if the price goes up to $12 / month without traffic increase that would not make it a great option anymore.
I hope that the increase in the bonuses will motivate more people to use the Grid so there will be an increase in the traffic it delivers as well.
Well, my campaign ends at May 5th, so I'll probably have collected much more data to help me decide until then.
BTW, I've joined the AdServer program and it seems well organised. People should really check it out!
Keep up the great work, admin.. the "View Ads" page shows you're doing an amazing so far!
PS. I still look forward to getting a reply regarding the "Homepage Advertising Spots" suggestion that many people are interested in...

@SolidSnake
In December we were in our best form. Prices were just too good especially with such good prizes and many people winning main prizes. It had to be recalculated at some stage as it was generating poor loss. Would you mind dropping me a line on support with that main page ad spots as it's so much on this forum that I'm getting lost sometimes
So, I'd like to ask you guys first.. how do you think I should put it?
What would be the most interesting way to have some advertising spot on their homepage?
I'm talking about possible spot locations and price.
