Hello Friends,
I need to apologise for some really annoying ads running on the site over the last few days.
These were what is known in the trade as network ads and that means basically we don’t know for sure what we’ll get until the network runs it. Over the years I’ve had a strict no noise rule for ads, but this particular network served them to us anyway. So, when the complaints came in, I axed the network. Which of course means I also axed the (admittedly paltry) income stream as well.
Now our already difficult advertising situation has become just a little worse.
We’ve always run this site on the smell of an oily rag, but no matter how hard we pare expenses (and we’ve really pared ’em), the fact is that servers, food, petrol and other such things actually cost money. 🙂 I need some ideas about how to get some income happening.
So, I have a question for those of you who like this little site: how would you tackle the income issue?
I’d prefer to see an open dialogue via the comment system, but if you want to keep your remarks off the page, you can use the feedback form. Thanks in advance for your thoughts!
-Don
