$10 free for your site or forum - how will you spend it?

[Fergal]

If you were given a free $10 to spend on your website or forum, how would you spend it?

I'd get a domain. I have no other means of getting one, so that would be the perfect chance. 🙂

 

[Jonathan]

Probably go and buy a good few posts from someone here 😛

 

[MissTake]

I don't know what the going rate for a custom skin is but it could go towards that? A domain is a good buy too or I would use it towards a prize of some variety 😉

 

[John1]

I would probably spend around $8 on hosting and the other $2 buying a few posts. Although I might change my mind and spend the $2 on a cheap advertising link on a good forum.

 

[Jay]

I would put it towards getting a fully custom theme or advertising.

 

[Watch Me Sink]

Bandwidth or a contest.

 

[Pixel Pirate]

I would most likely use it in a contest or donate it to a lesser known blog :/

 

[StripesAndFins]

I would by a costum skin or some posts.

 

[Kashike]

Domain, most likely. Add it to my collection.

 

[agentmanningctu]

Advertisements, definitely.

I feel like what I am doing with my blog is a unique resource, and I want to make sure everyone knows about it.

 

[InfiniteJest]

Ads on a political ad network.

 

[iGame]

I would host a posting competition

 

[Raymond]

$10? I probably wouldn't even see it for more than 1 minute. It would be gone to our software costs etc..

My domain is already paid for the next few years, so I would put the $10 towards hosting renewal.

 

[InfiniteJest]

Now that I think of it, I could probably put it towards buying a custom theme that incorporates the logo I designed that's just kind of sitting around now.

 

[JayJACKEL!]

Posts.
Too little to get a decent custom skin 🙂

Custom skins are about 25-30 dollars. And that's a pre-made one. If you were to commission someone to make a totally custom one just for your site, you're talking a few hundred dollars.

I usually had plenty of money when I ran my forum, but if I suddenly came into 10 dollars which I could only spend on my forum, I'd probably buy a posting service as someone said. That would get you like 25 well written posts.

$25-30 is really cheap for a custom theme. When you get to IPB or vBulletin, they easily run up to $300-500.

Occasionally, you might find a premium premade theme for $10.

I wouldn't. That is not much for anything, really. I would safe it, and put it together with some more money to spend and save thus having a larger amount.
