Finally, I began running AdSense the last week of February, and began getting hits from the Google MediaBot.

Google loves Google and with all three robots present going through my site now, even my newest pages are usually indexed and cached within 2-3 days. I'm hoping to finally crack into some decent SERP with Google and hence more traffic and visitors. (Right now, I kick butt in Yahoo! and MSN for my keywords, but have yet to scratch Google!)

Patience, professionalism and persistence will pay off - or so I keep telling myself.

Hope this helps, or maybe gives you some more ideas.

Good Luck ~ Happy Surfing!
