I made sites that list British post offices and post boxes:

http://edwardbetts.com/postoffices/ and http://edwardbetts.com/postboxes/

I think both these sites went live in 2008.

Here are the AdSense figures for this month so far (May 1st to May 27th):

  * $52.94 earnings
  * 21,708 Page views
  * 147 Clicks
  * 0.68% Page CTR
  * $0.36 CPC
  * $2.44 Page RPM

You do realize the Adsense tos bars you from disclosing this data, right? Not that I care (I think the TOS is b.s. on that point), I'm just saying...

Um, yeah, I would edit those URLs out before the edit window expires. Google will kill your account.

I guess the real money comes when you help marketing people find spend-happy people's mailboxes ;)

Or connect conmen with heiresses, vacuum cleaner salesmen with Persian cat owners, horny teenagers with lonely centerfold models... I can come up with these all day, now get busy!

Either this program (Market Samurai) is shitting the bed or he has 291,557 backlinks to his domain. That's a pretty serious number of backlinks for a personal site.
