Someone posted a notice in Kingston block asking about the cost of the website, and whether it would raise funds through advertising. I will also post a response on the notice board, but it would be good to seek views on here. There is a site hosting cost, of about £80 per year. The website is an experiment and will be discussed at the AGM next year. If residents do not want it then it will be discontinued. But I am keen to seek views on what residents would like to see from a Porton Court website.
Regarding advertising - this forum site is free and therefore we have to put up with the ads. If residents really wanted an ad-free forum, I would have to look for one that charges. I am not sure it would be a good idea to try to make money through advertising on the Porton Court website as the directors would not want to be seen to be endorsing products. But I welcome your views
