Do you think if I advertised a clean cut t-shirt
company aimed towards college students
(armani, express, banana republic style clothing), etc... on humor
sites such as ebaumsworld.com and break.com, do you
think the traffic they send me would convert
at all into sales? Maybe even 1%?

i own a funny stuff site: http://funnystuff.rolista.com but i recommend you not to advertise your t-shirt business on these type of sites. you will get some clicks on your ads but not the sales.

target some other entertainment related sites. like you can target music sites, celebrity sties to get some orders.

on my site i see 70% ads are of t-shirts and i really don't get much clicks on links just because every humor site related visitor have seen these ads daily. if you advertise you add will be ignored by visitors because you are offering the same thing they have already seen before.
