Aw, bummer. Do you go to many conventions?

I stayed home to hold down the fort- virtual and physical!

You did a great job, ATP stayed put! Big Grin
In all seriousness, though, I completely understand. With so much going on, it must be tough to just pick up and go somewhere for a day. Smiling

As for what it meas to sponsor the site- ATP runs entirely off of ad revenue- we do not charge our members a fee. However, if ATP is to be around, we (Dave and I) have to have an income Green Grin! We generate revenue via advertising. Usually, we use Google Ad Sense, but we are moving toward company direct advertising. We have always loved hooking our favorite gardeners up with our favorite gardening companies- win/win for everyone Thumbs up


Thank you for the explanation! I have always wondered how the site pays for itself and I have seen the ads and, of course, knew that must generate some amount of revenue to keep the site going, but I didn't know if that was the primary source. It appears Victory Seeds sponsors...tomatoes? Is that right? I'm not sure if I've run across other sponsors, though...not yet, anyway.
