Business Advertising @ Ballyboughal.net

There is a difference I guess between local news and what is considered business advertising. In this and with regard  to Ballyboughal.net – I know it all takes time.

In the last few months however, things have changed and it is a regular request to have a business noted here in it’s many varying formats. There are many – and the many requests vary. A lot.

Whilst this is all good, great to see and for the better – there is a difference between what is local news and what is essentially advertising.

Like anything, there are costs to running anything. This site is no different. And for businesses/ advertising we will now be asking for a donation, a few bob, spondulas, some dosh, a buck, a clam, some dough, a few shillings, frogskins, duckets, the loot, licker, some bones, honk, lolly, moola -or- moolah, some readies or finally wonga.

This will do one or two things – you may say either

• a] stuff that
• b] well that’s fair enough

If your answer is A] it means I have more time to walk Ballyboughal’s hedgerows with my daughter. If you’re answer is B] then that’s fair enough – and I might be able to throw a few bob towards the sites costs which Adrian and Peter have paid to date. Either or, I don’t really mind.

The sites intention was to be local news, information, where do I go, what to do on a Friday and who achieved what last week. If we can continue to do that and cover costs – I’ll be very pleased. At the moment it’s simply leaning far too much in favour of too much time and all of the money.

If we only spend a little less time doing the site, but can put more time into making the local news better – I’ll be a happy camper and the site will be a better place to visit.
