Guido and the guys go after the money…

Up until now, only a few big beasts like epolitix have been able to make money out of politics online. But, it seems, that is about to change. Media Guardian notes that Guido and few of the top UK pol bloggers have gone out on their own to pick up ad revenues previously corralled amongst a worthy few. This kind of unbundling of what have been effectively discrete advertising loops can only quicken the day that blogs begin to take up a sustainable position within the online marketplace.

We are reader supported. Donate to keep Slugger lit!

For over 20 years, Slugger has been an independent place for debate and new ideas. We have published over 40,000 posts and over one and a half million comments on the site. Each month we have over 70,000 readers. All this we have accomplished with only volunteers we have never had any paid staff.

Slugger does not receive any funding, and we respect our readers, so we will never run intrusive ads or sponsored posts. Instead, we are reader-supported. Help us keep Slugger independent by becoming a friend of Slugger. While we run a tight ship and no one gets paid to write, we need money to help us cover our costs.

If you like what we do, we are asking you to consider giving a monthly donation of any amount, or you can give a one-off donation. Any amount is appreciated.
