Blogs, Bandwidth, and advertising
I have never made it a secret that if you signup for a site I support, through a link on this blog, that I get a little piece of the action. In the world of blogs there seems to be two types, those that are just a sort of personal journal for people who want to have their voice heard, and those that serve more of a commercial purpose. Some of the spanking blogs out there are just one big advertisement, and they tend to get on my nerves a little. I have always tried to find a balance between promoting sites that I own or support, and adding a little something extra through my posts. I believe that I provide more in the way of free content with all of my free spanking galleries, and as a result, these pictures have been viewed and downloaded millions of times. One thing all of you must realize is that bandwidth is not free, and a popular blog is a double edged sword. The more visitors I get, the more it costs me to run this site. Luckily, every few days someone from the blog signs up for a site through my blog and over the course of a month, the blog manages to run at a positive. But for perspective, yesterday, with every visitor to the blog, a total of 89,456 page views were loaded.
I love that my blog is becoming popular again, but I would like to ask you all a favor. I understand that for many of you, a site like this is your source of spanking content and that you do not pay for memberships to spanking sites, which I fully understand and have no problem with, this is after all a free spanking resource. What I would like to ask, is that if you do decide to eventually join a site that you have seen listed here, please signup for that site by going to it from a link on my blog. It does not cost you more, it simply means that the site you join gives me a small percentage of your signup. Your signups to spanking sites, that take place from links on my blog, keep this blog going. I think I am fair with my links and have yet to list a site that is not worth the money. I do not recommend any sites that I have not personally bought my own membership to. I am not trying to give you a sob story, nor am I begging you for money. I am just asking that if you have been reading reviews about sites here that you finally decide to give a try, when you go to signup, please come back here and enter their site from my blog. The more signups through here, the more bandwidth I can afford, which allows for more free picture galleries, and will hopefully allow something that I have always wanted to do, which is a large free video gallery area. But with the current amount of bandwidth this blog sees as a result of just pictures, free video galleries would probably leave the blog running at a negative, which I cannot allow to happen. If you made it to the end of this post, thanks for at least hearing me out. Cheers.

So "site reviews" by you would be interesting to me. It shouldn't be of sites that I already know and love (like your sites, girls boarding school, spanking shame, dallas spanks hard, or the lupus/rigid east ones, to name a few of my favorites), but it would be interesting to see some of the sites that I don't know that well yet being presented by you. I might get so interested that I would try a one month subscription.Next entry: Interesting stats
