A Blog Entry of Wonder and Possibly Also of Strife

This website has been around for five years. We supply everyone in the world who bothers to read what we have to say with an amount of entertaining material that at first seems infinite, until you read it all and come to the end. But then you wait for the updates! The updates are irregular and fickle, like a girlfriend would be. And not just any girlfriend, but a girlfriend you'd want to MARRY.

Am I making sense? Your subconscious mind is picking up what I'm saying and if you don't understand me now, pay attention to your dreams for the next three weeks. Then come back and read this blog entry and you will say "Oh yeah. NOW I know what she means and GODDAMN she is so right."

What I am meaning to say is that this website is like royalty and a perfect wine and a flying magic carpet AND an albino camel with three humps and golden teeth and emeralds for eyes ALL AT ONCE. Surely that entitles us to some sort of money-making right. I hear all of this talk of "potential" but that potential isn't paying the bills!

Why are we not making the $70 per month that we'd need to make the site simply pay for itself? Is that too much to ask? I am sure all of you agree that it is not too much to ask and if any of you think that it IS too much to ask then I hate you! No I don't baybee, I don't hate you. C'mon sugarpumpkin, I take it back. You'll pay our bills monthly? My and by extension everyone affiliated with this site's hero!

If only it were that easy.

It's not that easy though. So can I get a long list of suggestions from you kids? I bet you have bright minds and good business sense. I mean, you're our readers, so you MUST be completely brilliant shining stars.

We love you.

Mwah!

And once site costs have been covered we can start an appeal to pay for my gold-plated bidet. Boy was that a hasty purchase.

A hasty purchase, yes. But it is one that we all delight it.

Oh Trevor, that was a rather silly idea. Does the gold increase the satisfaction of your, er, bum hole?


And Amanda, perhaps Mark can write enough erotic fanfics that somehow you can publish a book.

so, Jeremy's going to buy a dozen?

as for the site: i think we shoudl sell out and sell a little ad space. liek to other, smaller sites who will pay to have their link in rotation.

Well, I guess these things may not even matter because I suspect that we only actually have 5 readers left as it is.

Six readers.

You could always uh... I'm going to go with ad space. The problem with sites like these are that us readers are too lazy or poor to donate, or don't have the proper means. Not to mention there'd need to be a Hell of a service to actually con any money out of us, especially considering those T-Shirts didn't go so well.

People don't like to pay for things on the internet because there's always a way to get it for free. The only two ways to make money are donations and ad space, and seeing as donations haven't done too well...


Of course, you could always opt for having thousands of donation buttons on every page, and have in-between pages, casually, forcefully, or sexually persuading donations.

So you are saying that actually selling ad space is a form of selling out to the Man that is not only acceptable but expected?

You'd still love us in the morning?

But of course. We're slackers. We understand the need to slack and the means to do it.
Besides, it's not as though there aren't a few ads around already.

We'll always love you.

maybe you should be asking about ad space on the front page? where the ads would be?

Perhaps I should address the matter of what the front page should even look like, design-wise, next. I know it is hardly my place OR area of expertise, but Jeremy's blog doesn't allow reader comments, so it is not a place that allows a healthy exchange of ideas.

Being his page and all, the placement and position of advertisements will be totally up to him. I have no idea what he has in mind though, really.
