Power outage in datacenter - a generator caught fire :roll:

Except it doesnt cover the costs of the hosting, so its not really profit.

Might I ask what DOES cover your costs?

The same thing that drives a lot of free websites and developers - their own money and kind heart.

their own money and kind heart.

Money trees sound cooler.

Personally I like the idea of advertising because you're basically mooching off of other people's websites to generate revenue for YOUR website, which then in turn the website who's advertising must be advertised on, and thus the circle of internetical life continues. It's quite beautiful :')

Like your avatar, or mine. It's a work of God.

actually, sumo shits money.

Unfortunately, it's only 50 cent pieces and boy are they hard to pass.

Right now, we don't make too much off advertising. We're still working on finding the perfect way to offset hosting costs without being too intrusive to the users. We don't want to be covered with ads (*cough imageshack cough*) but we can't move to our dream server until we have a better way of generating the income.

All in all, most months it comes out of my pocket.

With Google's adsense I'm pretty sure you can prevent some sites from showing up.
