the Brunswick BUG bit me

Hi all,

summer is getting closer, and i will have some free time to finish my website.
now im going to put ALOT of work in it, to keep it up to date etc. My main visitors will be belgium pool players, but the site will be in english to keep my international friends happy too :D

it will have download sections, explaining how to install all the downloading software; dc++, torrents, google, youtube, breakandrun video's etc etc

training drills, testing drills, etc/

player profiles of ALL the belgium poolplayers (i know, this will be alot of working and contacting people)

poolgear info (as not a single player i know in my country's knows anything about poolgear, most players use cheap 30$ playercues, meucci's) id like to explain them all about custom cues, new shafts, etc

international poolscene info: dcc, wpm; wpc, us open, eurotour, and there TV coverage in belgium

national poolscene, all the housetournaments, rankings, opens, invitationals, etc etc.

now id like to earn a bit ofmoney for the time im going to put in it. i know i could put some links that people could click or add banners etc, but ... well i HATE those on websites.

so i was wondering if it would be realistic to put up my paypall info, so people could donate some money, to pay for my work and maybe the hosting expenses. my girlfriend told me to ask some fee's for the added player profiles, but i dont think its a good idea. i dont want to earn a living of it :) just something extra.


i thought of adding a section of poolgear selling shops in belgium. i supose they would be the best people to contact about sponsership and they would profit the most of visitors. what do u think?

for those who havent seen the site yet, its in my signature. (u got to have the shockwave plugin to see it.) if u dont have it, dont worry, u should get a msg to download it straight away. its just a plugin like flash or any other thing. ow and put the sound on :D

greats from solly who's in his 'promoting-the-Belgium-poolsscene' adiction.

ps anyone knows how to add a click counter or any stats keeping program in macromedia director? so i know what screensize, program, etc most of my visitors are using for future sponsering purposes. (part of my business plan)

thx mark :cool:

now i still wonder if a website without any banners, can really survive financially with just donations?
 
ok, on to the next plan then :)

feel free to give me some idea's. (as long as they dont consist of freaky banners, popups, and everything most people hate. no matter how much it would earn)
