It may be worth raising memberships a shade. There is an arguement that this can lose sales, but everyone, including US webmasters are in the same boat (more dollars are needed to buy whatever and especially any imported product).
The biggest potential threat to the dollar level is probably OPEC. If they keep losing out on dollars and the US keeps this fetish for consuming oil, there is more chance they will move to another more stable currency (there has been plenty talk already).
China is prob down the scale and they will just slowly unload their dollar holdings - but the effect is the same (lower dollar), unless this is done carefully.
