I haven't priced it out yet.  We've already made the jump to something in the $50-$75/month territory (just for the forum site); the next step up probably gets into several hundred a month, and I'd like to see the site revenues get a bit more consistently able to generate that before I make that move.  Amazon carries the lion's share (and at the moment is also putting some money in my pocket, which given that I'm self-employed I'd like it to continue to do), but it's difficult to predict from month to month.  Google ad-clicks by themselves are barely covering the current costs; they'd have to step up several times more, beyond the boost they're already getting from the increased traffic, to support a move to a hundreds-per-month type affair.

Murphy's Stunt Double:
What's your bandwith at now?

cephis:
I am sure that it's not Comcastic!

IIIMarconeIII:
do we just have to click on the links for you to get credit? what do we have to do exactly?

Helen™:
Yeah, just click on the ads.  I click on the Borders ads.  You get 20% off coupons that way.
