Do you ever visit the sponsors for the forum...some of them seem to be really nice hosts like freestyle hosting I never really paid much attention to them until now

If I was looking for a host, I may, but since I'm already happy with the host I'm currently with, no.

Yes I agree and that is probably why I never looked at them, I am not looking for another host cause I know I Won't find a better one I was just kinda wondering...I don't want to sound like I am looking for another host cause I support myacen all the way

I never took notice of it. Strange, I think I must visit an optician.

I do click on the ads occasionally, when there's a new one around, but that's generally rare...

I've never figured out why advertisers would want to advertise on these forums. It's a very bad deal overall, even if it gets a lot of exposure. I mean, these are PPM offers. Considering that I alone use up lots of impressions (and after the first or second time, I'm not interested anymore), the hosts must be paying a lot. :confused2

Oh, hehe...I was looking at the wrong part of the table. :D

I guess that is an OK deal after all. :)

I have visited a few. I think it is a good place to advertise, because even though most of the regulars here aren't looking into the offers, there are quite a few members that come for a few months to find what they want, then leave.

Not to mention the guests that sometimes outnumber the members. At present There are currently 21 members and 20 guests on the boards.

But the problem lies in this...I probably account for, let's say, 5,000 views to this board a month. The veteran users combined probably add up to something like a couple hundred thousand, perhaps a million. A million guests do not visit this board per month, unfortunately.

I looked at them when I was searching for a host a while back.

I think I've visited all of the sponsors so far. :)
But normally I don't visit them for the second time.
