As you can see, we have added an Ebay link to the site, this link will show reptile related auctions happening LIVE on Ebay.

The link is just as safe as Ebay.co.uk to click on and buy from (as it's operated by them Wink )

We hope you find the links useful and not in the way or annoying, they help to bring the running costs of the forum down so are needed until we get other sponsors up.

thanks Brian, yep google adsense is quite good, I use it on the free classifieds but the forum costs a lot more to run so need a better revenue stream to keep things running smoothly. I'm looking for the right balance of USEFUL adverts without over doing it.

I know what you mean about trying to keep the balance, on another forum i use the google ads were placed at the top of the page to generate more revenue & a lot of senior members weren't best pleased.

Speaking of ebay...

If a member puts anything reptile related up for auction on ebay, are they allowed to mention it on the forum in case anybody is interested? If so, where abouts?

Thanks Smile

hi neep neep,
fair question but no, at the moment we don't want to see free adverts appearing on the forum but you can place an advert on reptileclassifieds with a link back to ebay.
