Banner ads at the bottom of the forum pages?
« on: September 11, 2006, 10:34:25 PM »
Simply put, it's to help pay for the cost of the hosting/server space.

As we grow, the out of pocket costs for hosting increases. This will help defer some of the costs. We will not directly ask you to click through to the ads (hint hint), but if you see something that interests you, feel free to check it out. Just wanted to let you know why they are there.

Rest assured that the ad click revenues support ongoing maintenance and improvements to our forum. We're talking pennies here, but it adds up.

Thanks-

Scott and Chris

Just a little update from yesterday, there were about 15 clicks on the ads and that totaled $1.56!  There were close to 3,000 pages viewed! Doesn't anyone work anymore?

A couple of ad views a day keeps the creditors away.

Thank you very much.

Greetings, the weeks with our new sponsors (ads seen on the top right hand corner and the bottom of our pages) has yielded a total of $33.91. Thank you all for your support keeping this board interesting, informational and extremely fun (in an addictive sort of way). Keep Clicking Away.

Just a reminder that, while no one will ask you to click on the Google Ads, clicking on them (now at the top of the page, next to the logo!) helps offset some of the costs required to run the forum.

So feel free to click on them!  :lol:
