The web is changing very fast. A year or two ago dating sites were experiencing unbelievable growth and the industry was looking great.

Maybe they'll get a short term cash fix out of it but they won't survive long term. Andrew's headline is a little misleading (good copywriting ;-) )but I think he's quite correct. Threads on forums like SPF with guys like Mook Jon and UKOffer telling how much money they are making is always going to tempt some young guys into the game looking for the quick buck and it's these small publishers who won't survive the market as it matures. If you build quality web based businesses or publish quality content sites that really add value t othe web and to your readership then you will have the best grounding to continue in business. This industry is no different to any other in that respect, good products+good marketing+good monetization means a far greater chance of survival than a short term "get rich quick at any cost" ethos.

But sooner or later all MFA (made for adsesne) sites will be out of business :-) If AdSense and YPN continue to grow at current pace i think the future for online publishers is bright, even for small ones.
