I just got off the phone with the server administrator. We basically talked exclusively about INTL and why it's been bogging down lately. Throughout our conversation, we came to the conclusion that it would be best if alternate means of revenue were used to help pay for the server and bandwidth.
What do I mean by alternate means of revenue?
Banner ads.
Yes, unfortunately, INTL will soon have banner ads. It hurts me to write that, in fact, I'm nearly in tears (not really). Anyway, banner ads are becoming increasingly necessary to maintain this site, but why?
Well, the server that INTL is currently hosted on also hosts about 25-40 other sites and those sites are starting to run slower, because INTL is beginning to suck up system resources. In turn, I'd like to, within the next six months, purchase my own dedicated server and host INTL on it exclusively. This will cost money. Lots and lots of money. Money that I don't have. So in turn, I plan on adding banner ads to help me raise as much revenue as possible, so that I don't have to shut down INTL, because it's causing clients to cancel their accounts with the server administrator.
Now, when I add banner ads to the site, I will try not to include obnoxious ads and popup ads. However, when I do add them, I'm going to need as much help as possible. By help, I mean clicking the ads once or twice a day, so that I can maximize the amount of money I bring in.
That's about it, folks. I hate to bring INTL to this extreme, but as I said, it's becoming increasingly necessary to maintain and upkeep the site that we all know and love.
