I've been rejected by several advertising companies because of the .cc domain name. Apparently, .cc is "supposed" to be for the Cocos Islands (Australian) websites, even though it is used as a .com substitute often enough. All of the companies I have contacted usually want to target the US demographic, and just automatically reject .cc domains.
Oh well. Ads are overrated anyway.
EDIT: I'm keeping the footer ad for the time being, just to see how it pays out. It is with one of the lowest-paying advertisers on the net, and some of the ads are kind of sketchy, so we'll see.
