Adam, do you mind me asking how much does the site cost to run annually?
Annual costs for domains, hosting and software licences come in at about £250 currently. There are probably other smaller ad-hoc costs throughout the year. Time wise I probably spend a couple of hours a day on admin, writing, publishing the site through social media and development or troubleshooting technical issues.
We’ve just moved hosts and increased our hosting costs slightly, we’ll see how that copes with the rise in demand I expect this season but I’m hopefully it will be more than sufficient.
I’ve been blown away by the response today to be honest, it’s been incredible. Costs, not taking into account my own time, are nearly covered. I’m hoping with any ad revenues generated from non- contributors we will be able to more competitions with prizes.
