Let's say $150 a month?

At the risk for embarassing myself, this is a VERY rough guess, and it's more likely i'm wrong than right, but here goes anyways.

similarweb stats show RS gets about 13k visits a month, and about 6 pages per visit.

Each page delivers 3 ad impressions on average.

So that's roughly 234k ad impressions.

Adsense pays anywhere from $0.20 to $2.00 per thousand impressions so that works out to $50 to $450 a month.

So let's say $150. Just a wild guess though.
