www.politicallore.com Political Lore wants to be your #1 news source! As you may, or may not have seen we are growing at an exceptionally fast rate, and are always encouraged by your positive comments and financial contributions. We are asking for your help at this particular moment because during the next week we will finally be crossing the line between just another blog and a full blown news site! We have secured the rights to a brand new beautifully designed theme, the down payment has been secured, and we will be paying for it in full this week.
The theme and installation will be a major cost; however we are also going to be starting our first advertising campaign, which we hope to be very successful. The problem is, advertising for a website like ours just does not pay off in the short term. It takes months and months to build a reputable name before you break even. In the beginning we hope to set a modest advertising budget each month, with expansion later down the road. We are also launching our new forum alongside with the new site design this week. We hope many of you will come and see what it is all about, and join us while we are still a small, nice tight knit community.
Advertising revenue helps cover our sites hosting costs and even some writer's fees, but everything else is fueled by donations. We are asking for a week long Political Lore fund raising drive! Please contribute what you can as every penny counts, and please also encourage others to do so. Anything will help us with these extra costs as we grow. I am so encouraged and excited by what Political Lore is becoming... and it is growing so fast! A site spawned from the Ron Paul Revolution looks like it could become the next big news-blog. We hope we will be competing with Politico this time next year!
Please donate what you can!
