According to the guy who ran the site. If you think he's lying about that, please put forth some evidence.

    Okay, so considering that 4chan didn't accept donations, didn't have any form of user-generated revenue until the (very recent) 4chan pass thing, Poole has always maintained that the site was a money loser. Also, cheap to run? The bandwidth costs alone would be HUGE. Not sure why you think he has a motive to lie about this - and if he does, again, put forth some evidence rather than spurious accusations. Calling the guy a liar with no proof to the contrary is just so much cheap sniping.

      You conveniently missed ad revenue. 4chan has around 650m pageviews a month. At $0.25/1000 that's a few million a year. And I didn't say he was lying, I said I don't believe him.

        No way $1 CPM for 4chan.

        4Chan's self serve ads are priced at a quarter of that, ~.25c CPM currently, and the inventory is never completely sold.
