Hi Frannan,

It looks like your in the furniture business. That's great that you are branching out to the web for additional sales. You have gathered correctly that the purpose of a business website it to add real dollars to the bottom line. Unfortunately, how to do that is a code that only a few crack.

Here are some tips, you're not going to like. Get rid of adsense. It takes away from the purose of your site which is to sell funiture. If the purpose of your site was to educate people about furniture then adsense would be a better fit. As it stands, it's a distraction on your site and more importantly it's a distraction from you learning core web development skills.

You might consider hiring a webdesigner on commision. Pay the designer a percentage for everything that sells on the website. If (s)he is any good that won't be a problem for them. If they are new it won't be a problem. But the people who like to get paid for work that doesn't produce results will hate the idea. In any case it would free you up to focus on your core business.

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.
