Maybe a cheap host with unlimited bandwidth would help ?

There are a few there, those are some 10 high ranked hosts
(Unmetered hosts are becoming common now-days, for as low as $3.95
per month)

Bob,
There's absolutely nothing wrong with advertising (in fact, the
site is full
of ads), but because REALbasic is such a niche category, the
advertising
does not cover expenses of running the site (hosting, bandwidth, etc.)
I originally tried selling advertising space on RBGarage.com to any RB
developer who was interested in promoting their RB-made products,
but even
at the very low ad costs, I only had a few interested parties who
actually
signed up for ads.
So since that did not prove to be fruitful, I replaced my custom
advertising
engine with Google AdSense, which does make more money for the site
than my
old advertising system, but niche market REALbasic keywords are
cheap, so
even the Google AdSense does not bring in enough revenue to cover
expenses.
By the way, my replies are NOT an attempt to solicit money, but to
simply
help shed light on the realities of running RBGarage.com. :-)
