Hey!

Well Japanimusic is growing bigger than ever every day, but there's always server bills which drag along each month. I have taken into consideration the implementation of ads on the website because I've heard they help out the site a little in terms of revenue.

As a trial, I have added Google Adsense ads at the bottom of each forum and topic page. They will be using the forum's colour scheme so they don't jump at you. I have also made them at the bottom of the page to make them less intrusive even more.

I will be publishing the earnings each month onto the website and if it deems unsuccessful I will remove them from the site.

If you have any questions please feel free to ask and please do check them out once in a while to see there is anything you like. Google Adsense ads pay by clicks, not page views like other advertising programmes so don't go refreshing the page a million times ;)

Please continue to donate to cover our server bills each month. We need $60 and we need it more than ever (8 days - 8th October) so please consider donating as I'm sure the revenue from Google Ads won't be able to cover it all.

Thanks and viva la Japanimusic! (Long live Japanimusic) ;)

Well, don't mind google ads but hopefully no pop-ups.

Nope, I can barely get over placing ads let alone popups xD

Luckily Google has better ads compared to other ad companies (they install trojans and have pop-unders... yuck!)

True. Lol

Although ads aren't a good thing, because of the fact that ads are needed to keep the site running i'm in support. :D

ad is ok, as long as it isn't one of those "in-frame ad" where you have "This is sponsored by, please click this button to continue" . :) .

Yea those ones are really annoying, however the ones with just the outside frame ads are slightly better, you can still see everything normally, but only the border frame are ads.

We'll stick to ads at the bottom of the page for now - which I am just starting to get used to :P

We can have ads hidden everywhere, pop unders, pop ups, 'please click here to continue' ads and frame ads with flashy emoticons making weird sounds when you roll over it... later :P
