Wow Lots of Traffic This month ;)

FYI i have increased our bandwidth for a single month....hopefully it doesnt get disabled again.

If you guys can think of any way to help generate money to fund vb-decompiler.com that would be great.

For now....its coming out of my pocket ;)

BTW sorry for those of you who could not access the site while it was over the bandwidth limit.

Its ok. What files are eating up the bandwith?
How much bandwith do you have each month?
How about setting up a paypal donation area.?

I think tons of people are going to be coming here next month.

Sounds ominous!!!! ;)


PayPal is good idea, we bailed out EVBF that way at one stage

my recommendation, for what it's worth, is to keep the numbers down generally ... we bailed it out, it grew and grew, and is now infested by thousands of newbies and schoolies

Keep an eye on members, poll the regulars every few months for a contribution, reminding them of what they are getting, etc...

1 gig is nothing for bandwith...

How much is it costing you?

I am going to try and bring as many people as i can next month.

Maybe try to move some files off the site or something.

I will allocate some more for now.

As well as trim our user base as i am sure there are at least 500+ who have not posted.

the donation thing is in process.

Food For thought

Postby MrUnleaded » Tue Aug 31, 2004 2:05 am

http://www.google.com/search?q=vb+decompiler

We are in the top ten for "vb decompiler"

Also...number 1 item type hit(by bandwidth) is gif image.


Maybe we need a "lite" version of this template...

Might be an idea to use an alternative avatar when appealing for donations ;)

How about a 2CV? Or a Vespa? ....... I know, a Trabi!!!!!
