VaBeach_Eagle Posted September 23, 2020 Author Share Posted September 23, 2020 Today, the 23rd of the month, I checked our Adsense totals for the month. As of this moment, for the month (on the 23rd day of the month), we've earned $23.23... did I mention that this is the 23rd of the month? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fresh_Prince Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 Trying to find the correct Amazon link. It's not displaying in the first post of the thread. I see two different ones quoted in posts later in the thread. I want to use the correct one to make sure you get your cut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VaBeach_Eagle Posted December 1, 2020 Author Share Posted December 1, 2020 Just a little update, for Adsense (the ads that guests see), we've reached the 'payment threshold'. On the 21st of this month, the board will receive its first payment. $139.48. That's not for a single month, that's the accumulation from May through November. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Madriver Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 Have you guys ever considered Patreon (patreon.com) as a way to make monthly income? I would be willing to donate a dollar or two a month. No need for merch for me, I would just like to donate to keep the board running. Multiply that times 50 or 100 and you would make a helluva lot more than adsense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey @VaBeach_Eagle let me know if the board would be interested in creating a brave (browser) creator account. It’s free and us supporters can provide BAT token (cryptocurrency) we earn by simply using Brave internet browser on the regular. Far superior and secure than chrome and safari lol. P.s. I am not being paid for promoting Brave just a thought https://publishers.basicattentiontoken.org/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll have to check on Fanatics to see those numbers (I haven't logged in there in a little while to see how it's been going, I've been pretty occupied with taking care of things here). For Amazon in 2020, we earned $29.68. For this year, it's showing $0.68. That amount that I mentioned in December (for AdSense), was what had accumulated between about May (when I got the site approved for AdSense monetization), and November 30th. The threshold for a payout is $100.00. If we have $99.99 sitting there, they won't send it to me. But once it hits $100, then they send it. So that $139.48 was our first payout (which is now sitting in the board's bank account). On February 28th, we went over the $100.00 threshold again, at $114.91. So on (or around) the 21st of this month, the boards bank account will get that amount via direct deposit. I'm also going to take 10 or 15% of the upcoming stimulus money that I get, and transfer it to the board. So things are chugging along on the funding front. 2 hours ago, philafan4o8 said: Hey @VaBeach_Eagle let me know if the board would be interested in creating a brave (browser) creator account.

For Fanatics, we made $86.08 so far, on $1,086.00 worth of sales. So, in all (so far), we've earned $370.15. Not quite enough to make the board 'self-sustaining' yet, but that's almost half of the annual hosting expense ($719.88/yr). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VaBeach_Eagle Posted March 16, 2021 Author Share Posted March 16, 2021 I was just on GoDaddy checking to make sure that the hosting packages auto renew was set to on and that the billing info was all correct, and I noticed that they have an estimate of value for our domain... they estimate that eaglesmessageboard.com is worth $999.99, not that it means anything but it's interesting, none the less. We'll see if that goes up or down over time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
