  Do you still also run the bed bug registry site?
  • idlewords 8y ago
    Yeah, I'm working on fixing it right now. The Google maps API pricing change means I have to redo most of it.

      Oh, cool. Does it still make you money?
• Improvotter 8y ago
  Wow I'm impressed by the revenue for such a site. Congratulations!

  Where does 97k expenses come from, if you don’t mind me asking
  • wyclif 8y ago
    I expect much of it is co-location, hosting, and dedicated hardware.
  • idlewords 8y ago
    The two biggest expenses year over year are colocation ($25K/year) and PayPal/ Stripe fees ($11K/year). I pulled the $97K figure from the year I bought Delicious, so it includes a lot of one-time hardware purchases.
