We’re Experimenting With Ads….
Summary
The site UnofficialSF.com is trying out advertising to cover its $600 annual running costs. This situation highlights how community-driven Salesforce resources sometimes need funding to continue operating. For Salesforce professionals, it’s a reminder of the value of free resources and the challenges behind maintaining them. While not Salesforce-technical, it offers perspective on resource sustainability that teams and consultants might face in their own content sharing or support efforts.
Takeaways
- Community resources require funding to stay live and useful.
- Small site costs can lead to experimenting with ads for sustainability.
- Acknowledging user inconvenience while maintaining free resources is important.
It costs about $600 per year to sustain UnofficialSF.com, and we’re experimenting with some ad placement to help keep the site running. I apologize for the inconvenience!
