Thanks for the suggestions. Like I said, I don't really post too much now to merit a Paid account yet.

I honestly very rarely check out people's actual LJ's unless I haven't friended them yet. If someone's on my flist, I usually just read the posts from there.

I'll have to do some searching for some Plus accounts. I guess my main concern is the type of ads they use and placement. I definitely know what you mean about contradictory ads on posts.
