We Got Rid of Those Ugly Ads on BrokeAssStuart!
We want you to have the best possible reading experience when you land on BrokeAssStuart.com, so last year we quietly got rid of a whole bunch of those ugly banner ads spots.
Here’s a reminder of what the site looked like, with a red circle and an arrow showing the ad spots:
Here’s what the home page looks like now:
SOOO much better right?
We also opted out of all our ad networks because, far too often, they were serving up whack ass ads like this:
We decided it just wasn’t worth having such an ugly fucking website. So we trimmed it down to just three ad spots. I think we previously had like nine of them.
And we decided that the only ads we would run would either be for BAS related things, or our partners that we work directly with, like Hubba Hubba Revue or Fort Mason Center for Arts & Culture.
But there is of course one major downside: We lost about $1000 a month by making these changes.
Can you help us make up that $1000 by joining the BAS Patreon?
We believe that the future of independent journalism has to be reader supported, and not dependent on ugly ads about weird shit like toe fungus and sagging jowls.
So if just 166 of you kicked in $6 a month, we could make up that $1000 a month we lost. Isn’t $6 a month worth it to no have to look at that shit? We think so.
