But alexa rankings and the number of members dont mean allot... the only thing that matters, is what you take home - your money. If you have 7000 members, but only get to keep (say) $5000 a month and someone else has 3000 but gets to keep (say) $30,000 a month.... the only numbers that mean anything are what you take home.

Even better than Shaps advice, sorry Shap I still love you though.
7000 members @ $2 a month brings in $14,000 a month. Upsells and cross sells with a bit of advertising will cover ALL your costs and might make a bit of a profit. $14,000 a month income.
7000 member @ $30 from affiliates might make you even less. Might make you more but not a lot more.
Traffic is the easiest thing in the world to get, easier than content
Making a profit is a bitch.
My figures are an example to illustrate the point.
