Thanks for posting this. It's always great to read about bootstrapped startups/businesses that are profitable.

They say they earn $500K/month, but I'm curious how they are generating this revenue as I didn't see any advertisements. Most of the normal "ad spaces" are links/ads encouraging users to signup and post articles of their own. Any insight/thoughts on how they are generating income?

Just looked into one article (http://www.articlesbase.com/business-opportunities-articles/...) there are two text boxes with Google Ads, two vertical banners and one horizontal banner at the bottom.
