Hello Alice,
This is exactly what I was concerned about. But google has the possibility to restrict the advertisers for this site. I would do that of course.
And I will only do this so that I can assure that we have total transparency and only content which is relevant and takes the forum forward in its development.
The other option instead of using Google is to have forum sponsors for the different sections of the forumm. They would then pay a certain monthly fee to have their banner shown somewhere.
Let me know what you all think about that option.
Fabian
