Profit?

Thantos

Purely out of interest, how much more money does Future get for the advertising on this site compared to the original individual sites?
This isn't a dig at Future or the way things have gone. I like what this forum is turning into.

We won't know until christmas at the next Future Forum, but we will have another site to take into account at that time too (not biking).

Sheepish

This may seem a fairly stupid question:

How will you get more profit of one site than all the separate ones? I would imagine it is fairly similar, does more come from the non forum side as well? As that is alot more advanced than the old sites (and surely offers publicity for manufacturers/stores etc. it's the only reason i can think of...

Luckily this site has more potential for advertisers, not just traffic but with featured brands, products etc. But to be honest I think the adverts are quite well placed for users, i.e not like a lot of sites that force a pop up, overlay or even page redirects to their advertisers. There are far more diverse areas, sections and subjects for advertisers to get on board with. Which the previous sites did not have.
