Please Keep This Site Free...By Paying For It

While I would love to be one of the big sites that makes money just through advertising I'm sorry to say that I have been paying for this site out of my own pocket for years. Now I am asking for support. It used to work that if you requested a review I would go by or check out the book and review it. Now I'm asking for your support and giving you something at the same time. What I have here is a Google Checkout button that you see on each page. There are three donation options. The first is 'Here's A Tip' for $1.99. This one is pretty self-explanitory: You are giving me a tip to help keep the site running. You can still request a review and I will do my best, but no promises. The next one is 'Request a Review' for $4.99. If you choose this option your title is getting reviewed. It may still take awhile, but it won't take longer then a month, and your review request goes near the front of the list (sorry, but preview books are still the top priority). The third option is 'Request a Video Review' for $19.99. This means a video review of your title will go up in one of the above boxes. These reviews are time consuming so (aside from the initial one to let you know how it will look) this feature will only be updated when this donation is made.

This site costs a couple hundred bucks a month to run plus the costs of the books themselves. That means to keep this updated on a weekly I need monthly donations/sales of $500 a month. Since I'm still unemployeed I can only cover these costs myself for a couple more months, at which point the site might have to be shut down. Now keep in mind that you don't need to make donations to keep this site afloat. Simply advertising with us through Project Wonderful or buying merchandise through my eBay and/or iOffer store will also go towards this goal. But this is it folks. I need the help. I can't keep these sites going forever. So I'll do what I can to keep the site up through Christmas, but if the site doesn't generate money and I still don't have a full time job then (getting work is tough right now), then the site will most likely close on January 1st, the 5th Anniversary of the site. Now we don't want that to happen do we? Oh, and on a final note I don't accept PayPal anymore. Sorry, but I don't. They are a scumbag company who ripped me off. In fact, they are a major reason as to why I'm having financial difficulties right now. I do accept Amazon Payments, mpayy, and Money Bookers, so if you would rather donate that way then feel free to. Thanks in advance for the support, and here's hoping for many more years of The Comic Book Guy.com.
