Small ad for running costs

[Maz]

Just to let you know that a small advert will be appearing on the right hand side. If I can get it to work! I've been trying to keep the site ad free since it started, but it's just to help with the annual fees and running costs, which I've self funded from the start. I'll see how it goes!

Ok an advert has appeared and it's not good! I will check the settings and ensure only suitable ones appear. (It was one that said "Start" and asked you to click on it, but it's changed now). Bear with me while I sort this out!

Also, if you're on mobile it will just appear further down the screen, after the forum list of topics. On computer it appears on the right hand side.

Just to add, I am also actively seeking sponsorship from a suitable company, as an alternative to adverts on the page and will keep you updated.

Initially the ads will be fairly random, but as it settles down apparently they will become more related to the forum. Or just ignore!

I've cancelled the ads - they were making peanuts! Pennies. So not worth it and the forum looks better without it. Instead I'm going to look to set up an annual request for donations for the forum running costs (similar to what the Guinea Pig Forum does - although they have a lot more members!)

Makes a lot of sense! They were a bit distracting.

I’ll be honest, I never noticed them

I never noticed them either.

Good plan re annual donations. I am happy to start things off if you want to pm me payment details?

 

[Maz]

Thank you. I'll need to set up paypal for it I think.

I like paypal, its so easy.
