Can You Believe A Mainstream Webmaster Board Charges $150 A Year To Post!
 

I won't post the url because my peeps at GFY won't appreciate it. But it's one of the largest mainstream webmaster boards.

I was flabbergasted!! $89 for 6 months pre-paid posting ability or $150 for 1 year pre-paid LOL!

GFY would be worth billions if they instituted the same rules/charges. :pimp

thats serious, i bet they have big players on that board

I guess that's why I never heard of it. Sounds like a slew for spam. No thanks!

what a joke, lol.

That's really interesting. I wonder how it's working out for them?

It must be a very serious board

It doesn't have any banner advertising, it makes it's money from the posters.

DH

Interesting concept.

ICQ me the URL mate please ;-)

Ta

:thumbsup

WW is worth it though.
What are you doing looking to post on an SE board :)
WG

that's one way to get rid of the surfers and spammers

There is a domain forum that cost to post...

webmasterworld?

Don't think hes talking about ww because thats free to post, they only charge to access a exclusive area.

That's probably the area he's interested in posting in ;)

hey, you get 500 paying posters thats some nice income for a zero maintenance site. its all about recurring income :thumbsup

nice, only one i pay for is somethingawful, but some others do charge a fee for sticky posts etc, offtopic, genmay both on the top 10 highest traffic boards, its crazy the cheap advertising they have on them tho.

That's a great idea

Most people on mainstream boards don't have a clue but you can meet some pretty good people sometimes.

Sounds a bit pricey considering our private forums are only $48 a year.

private gfy forum?

can i take a peek? :upsidedow

no surfers allowed on the private forums

If it is the board we all think it is, just pay it as it rocks.

I've been a member there for years, it's decent but you can find a lot of the same type of information elsewhere. If you're looking for eyeballs then it is what it is... But what is giving me a bit of a chuckle here is that you're saying that a few bucks a year is too much to pay to get those eyeballs?

Please don't make me point out the irony in this. :)

:pimp

i wonder what board that is...

ABSOLUTELY!!!

Oh, and that last article thread you posted over there really kicked ass. A damn nice bit of advice in that one Fris. :thumbsup

Agreed! And ours covers the spectrum from mainstream to adult...

Not sure, this place would be empty once all broke sigwhores left it. However, it could actually become more profitable even with 1/5th of the members left.
