totse.com has always been an advertising-supported site. Most of the ads pay the site a couple of bucks when you click on the ad and then buy something on the advertiser's site.

However, a lot of people who use totse on a daily basis have their own on-line businesses. Some of these businesses are too small to set up their own affiliate advertising program. Some sell such off-beat or off-the-wall products that traditional advertising won't do them much good.

Mother Gecko Botanicals is one such business. Mother Gecko sponsored some ads on totse and increased the traffic to their web site by hundreds of additional new customers per day.

This made me think that I should really find a simple, easy way for other totse members to buy ad space and sell their unique and weird wares on the site. I just found a service that was custom-made for this: Ad Brite. Ad Brite lets anyone buy ad space on totse. You just go to Ad Brite, decide how much you want to spend, buy the ad space, and upload your ad.

If you don't have a business, but you've been wanting to give money to totse just for being here, now's your chance to give us money AND get a banner ad of your choice displayed on the site. Create a banner, go to Ad Brite, and put the ad up.

I'll take it with recent totse censorship I wont be able to post my goat*se fansite?

Isn't banner just synonymous for moderator...?

I need some help.

When I became unregistered I couldn't re-register this name so I took digitaltam. Then that got unregistered so I took pure barry man.

You can see posts from these aliases in SP.

Can I please be given back digitaltam?

Wrong place to ask that question.

...idiot...

You will be notified upon ad approval, at which time your credit card will be billed 5.00 US Dollars and your ad will be displayed.



Just doing what I can to contribute. This was only a trial, if I like the results i will contribute real cash.It's just a silly message, yet nothing hostile. Hopefully the admins won't have a problem approving it. I gave a broken link because like i said, I dont want a site, I 'm just doing what I can to help out, especially considering totse is working slow for me right now. Its an ingenious Idea actually, im sure theres LOTS of people here willing to pay money time and time again to have their little message displayed at the top of the page. I mean they could come out really immature, but seriously the ads up there arent that hard to ignore.

I will buy one for my whole family for christmas how much lol?

If I had a paypal account, I would probably donate a few dollars here and there to Totse.

If this UBB upgraded to something other then reply and create new topic then I would donate some myself.

Sounds like a great idea. All I need now is money. I'm just joking, I'm sure I can spare a few bucks for old Totse.

Oh shit, this isn't where I parked my car.

This is certainly new.

JEFF HUNTER IS A GREEDY CAPITALIST! HE IS BRAINWASHED BY BUSH AND FOX NEWS!

Can I donate via paypal?

I should ban yer ass for that. He pays the ridiculous bandwidth charges for this site out of his own pocket. So all you assholes can use it for free. The ads don't even begin to cover the cost of keeping the site up.

So are you still setting up the paypal donation button? Or will this be used instead?

I think this is a neat idea. If I actually had paypal I would definitely pay a bit to make sure this site stays up.

I should make beercan windchimes and sell them here....

...vote for brown

Interesting. I just might buy some adspace.

I can't buy ad space, but in about 3 months I am thinking of donating $300 to Totse. I know its not much but meh at least I'll try.

P.S: OMGWTFBBQ 175 J3FFHU73R!!11oine123311

^^^ loser.

and uhhmm... damnit, forgot what else i was going to say.

...There are free advertising places that work wonders...

And this is why I hate you Wintermute. This is a Bulliten Board based of free speech, and everytime someone says something that you disagree with, you turn into a physchoatic cunt. Shut the fuck up, no one likes you.

...Have you ever even visited the homepage?

Well this certainly begs the question of why?

I'm asking you Jeff Hunter (real name?) why is totse up and running if it puts a dent in your pocket? This is not a malicious post at all i'm just curious.

I suggest the administrators do more banning theres just way to much idiots going around. And keep a very close eye on new members when registration is up. 80% of them are trolls.

Well, he's been running this place since 1989, taking totse down would be like shooting your child.

I don't suppose you realise how funny it is seeing you write that, do you?

I feel bad for adblocking all the banners. Actually, do I bollocks.

I just finished putting through my order to have my WCP banner put up. Ad brite just has gotta approve it now.

Also: for you folks with paypal and no credit card who that want to get your banner up email me (spammansam@gmail.com) and we'll work something out.

I'd feel worse after reading your post if I knew what a physchoatic cunt was..

I said I SHOULD ban him, not that I would.

It's a bulletin board based ON the priciples of free speech, it's a privilege that someone else pays for, not a right.

like the idea

the idea of autographed bagel fucking photos...

Ive sent in my $5 for a banner, but Adbrite likes the idea of holding my money for some reason and not doing anything. They are probably waiting for it to clear, which will happen on tuesday.

Jeff, I just wanted to thank you for everything dude. I'll donate as soon as i get paid.

OH yeah, this thread was made on my birthday.

Once i get my own site instead of just DA I will definately advertise a bit.

I'm interested in putting up a banner and helping out totse.

How often does it rotate in?

How long does it stay in rotation?

Seems like a great idea.

Thanks!
