Some of you may have noticed the "Shop Official Broncos Team Store" link on the navigation menu at the top of BroncosForums (next to What's new). We now have an arrangement where if you click that link and go to the Denver Broncos Online Shop, a small percentage of the sale will come back to support Broncos Forums.
I felt this was a good arrangement at this time for two reasons:
First, later in the week I'm moving to a new server that costs quite a bit more (both up front and monthly) then the current server and as a result I think I'll fall further below the breakeven point just from existing ad revenue. My goal has been to try and keep it to no more than $500 a year that I have to put in out of my pocket to keep the site, backup server, site monitoring, Linux support, etc. going.
Second, this is a great way for the site to get some additional revenue, without adding a banner ad to the top of the site next to the Broncos Forums logo or adding more ads inside the discussion threads than already exist.
For those of you that want to purchase something at the Official Denver Broncos Online Shop, if you click on the "Shop Official Broncos Team Store" link up on the navigation bar and then choose one of categories such as "Broncos Jerseys", "Broncos T-Shirts," etc. or if click on this link, Denver Broncos Official Online Shop before adding the items to your cart, you will be supporting Broncos Forums with your purchase.
Thanks
