But, no, I do not believe it is accurate. How would they really know the numbers? As for a server for YT...I imagine the cost runs somewhere over $100 and no more than $400....I seriously doubt it is in the top range. It does have to be paid for somehow...and I don't know what other ways the admin has to pay for it. I just would personally not use the google ads. I was under the impression that he had servers and was pretty much just running YT as a side thing; but I might have been told something totally incorrect. Many people do that. They have websites or other online things that make money and they donate part of the server. Many people donate server space to rescues. |
OK I just ran two websites on cubestat that I have access to information on and they were both very incorrect! Just an fyi! |

I imagine YorkieTalk takes quite a bit of server space with all the archived threads and member profiles, photos and such. My son and my brother both have websites off the same server account but they're nowhere on the scale of YorkieTalk so I guess there is some real expense incurred. All in all, this is a great site and I can live with the ads. |

It is not a huge cost to run a site like this if you have a server already; and honestly even if you do not. But..that all depends on what someone thinks is a huge cost. I agree...I don't care about the ads and will continue to use YT. I just think that if it is a money thing, there might be other ways to get that money. It was simply my feedback on the topic. There really IS money to be made on banner ads! Trust me on that one! That does not mean that YT is making a ton of money on those ads, it is merely saying that there IS money to be made on links! |
Who was banned?Was it the woman with all the health problems who wrote about a puppy 5mos old who was aggressive with the leash etc? |

YorkieTalk is a completely free service for all members and we hope it will continue to always be a free resource for all Yorkie owners. YorkieTalk does accept donations, and with donations, members do get a few additional benefits. Google handles some of the ads that we have on here. The ads are served based on what the thread is about. We do not control which ads may show up here. Without ads, YorkieTalk could not survive in its current state, as there are significant costs with running a site with a community this large, from software to server costs to database administration. We have been able to keep all pictures posted, keep all threads and posts that have ever been posted, and allow albums for members. It is simply not possible to run this community without ads. We suggest all members do their homework and research when purchasing a Yorkie for their family. We provide plenty of tips and do give advice on how to find the right Yorkie. They are stickied in the Yorkies for Sale or Wanted forum. Here are a few of them: http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/yor...ead-first.html http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/yor...ease-read.html http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/yor...ead-first.html |
