Yeah set something up where we can donate money or something... I mean I can't afford much, because I am still in college. But I could help out a little at some point

I am working on getting some small google ads up to help out. I could set up a paypal donate button in a discreet place on the site so it wouldn't be right in your face all the time.

As long as this site doesn't start free, go to a pay to post, back to free, then ask for donations, then go back to being pay to post, we'll be alright :)

Seriously though, I'm sure we all know this site costs money to keep up, so they'll be a few of us that help out... Hell, I'd even click on some ads!

Justin, I'm clueless about this web stuff.

How much can a growing site like this bring in revenue from Google Ads?

Ever enough to cover your end?

Obviously it failed for the site we won't name.

Google pays per click, so we would have to actually click the Google ads to bring the site any money. Other kinds of ads may pay per click or pay a set amount based on site traffic.
