Would you become an Apple World Today patron if we ditched all ads?

This may be an unrealistic dream, but I’ve long hoped for the day when there would be no ads on Apple World Today.

Honestly, they can be a pain to deal with. But I do make my living with this website — although may have noticed that I have already removed some ads.

So, my question, dear reader, is: would you consider becoming an AWT patron for $5 per month if there were no more ads on this website? Either leave me a comment at the end of this article or, better yet, drop me an email at dennis.sellers@appleworld.today .

If we can get enough folks to sign up, I’ll remove all ads. There would still be “free” articles for non-subscribers, but at least two articles per day would be for patrons only.

We’d still run the AWT Deal of the Day and an occasion sponsored post.  After all, I have to pay the bills. I realize the problem I face is that most folks are used to getting free content on the Internet, so convincing folks to pay $5 a month may be a pipe dream. But I’m considering it. And I hope you’ll consider it.

Of course, subscribers wouldn’t have to limit themselves to $5 per month. You can do a million bucks if you wish; I won’t stop you!

For now, if you’d like to help support AWT, you can become a patron starting at only $2 per month (though $5/month gets you the exclusives). But please drop me an email at dennis.sellers@appleworld.today and let me know what you think of a patron-supported, no-ad Apple World Today.
