We first added Google Ads to the site on July 1st, 2006. Here are the figures:

  • July: $41.86
  • August: $53.38
  • September: $64.34
  • October: $82.79

It’s not a lot, but it almost covers our monthly server costs. One is $9.95 per month (for our Web site) and the other is $49.00 per month (for hosting the trip planner application). In the future, assuming more and more people are using the trip planner, that second figure could go up into the hundreds and possibly thousands.

Update

We are working on a partnership with Metro that would eliminate our server costs by hosting the trip planner on their servers. This would be tremendously helpful to the project. In addition to reducing costs, it would also make certain technical issues easier to deal with.
